Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Excel
I do survey analysis and some data cleanup using Microsoft Excel. I also use it to analyze row level data for survey responses we receive. I use it mainly for initial analyses using pivot tables, but will also use power queries to transform data as needed. I also use it to create some basic charts to use in PowerPoints and other presentation tools.
Pros
- Column filtering
- pivot tables
Cons
- putting more than one pivot table on a single sheet
- Let me filter by or jump to duplicate values instead of only highlighting them
- Make it easy to reverse the order of a chart instead of me having to manually change the order myself
- Allows for quicker cleanup and initial results
- Charts can be difficult to re-sort and resize
- Helps create reports
- Could use better collaboration and tracking of edits for others to view
It isn't as collaborative or detail oriented as other platforms, or at least it doesn't market itself to be used that way. But it is still useful in its own ways
