Likelihood to Recommend

If you're looking for a super-powerful spreadsheet, this is for you. There is not a steep learning curve if you are familiar with spreadsheets. However, if you want something that has a better activity log, it is more user-friendly and agile, you're better off trying a more in-depth project management tool.

Amped up spreadsheet, lacks real project management features
