I really appreciate how easy the navigation bars are to use. They are laid out in categories that make sense. > > **Cons**: I feel Excel has not changed much or added actual product enhancements for a while. This has made it hard for Excel to keep up with other products like sheets. ----- ### "An Industry Essential" — 5.0/5 > **Rebecca** | *9 March 2026* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Excel has remained a dominant software across almost all professions for a reason. The simplicity of its design works in a way where it can be applied in thousands of formats. The constant, updated, integration with other products is unbeatable. And the length of its relevance means that there is always a tried-and-true solution to any issue you are trying to resolve. > > **Cons**: The biggest downside to Excel is the inability to smoothly collaborate with others. The online functionality of the product falls behind that of competitors, and the downloaded software admittedly works better than anything that is constantly accessible. > > The positives to Excel far outweigh any of the negatives. It is a product that branches across generations in the workplace because it has remained vital in so many base functions for most companies. I genuinely and wholeheartedly cannot imagine anything being able to take the place of this software. ----- ### "It just makes sense." — 5.0/5 > **Sam** | *13 February 2026* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that is just makes sense. I use it everyday in work and have not found it's apple alternative ' numbers' anywhere near as user friendly. It is part of the Microsoft 365 package and due to that is inexpensive. Although I have used a m0bile version and had no issue with it, I tend to use it on the computer due to the larger screen size. There has never been any issue a short youtube video has not helped me overcome. As I mentioned, it just makes sense. > > **Cons**: Having had to use the alternative (numbers) for a time I honestly cannot quibble. I would say the one minor gripe is that if I have an excel doc open and open another it sometimes replaces my already opened doc instead of opening two? I have figured out the way around this and it may be a limitation of the hardware I use as opposed to Excel itself. > > Having used it for equations, tables, databases etc I would struggle to use an alternative. I can think of three completely separate things that I use this program for everyday. I do not believe I could do that with another program. ----- Page: 1 / 778\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/176574/excel?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/176574/excel) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
