Review of Microsoft Excel

What do you like best? Excel is a truly amazing tool, and rewards those who are brave/curious enough to explore and learn functions/features that are foreign to them. What I like best/use most is Pivot Tables, which are highly useful& relatively easy to grasp when starting out. What do you dislike? For beginner/unfamiliar users, Excel may at first glance seem to be either useless due to lack of understanding it power OR too daunting to approach with the vast amount of functionality ...

It works but could be a little more user friendly

What do you like best? I liked how easy it was to keep track of large amount of information and, once I learned, how easy it was to mass organize. What do you dislike? I didn't like the lack of user friendliness. I was constantly having to look up how to do things and the help button wasn't very informative. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I am mainly using using it to keep track and organize our Mailing list of potential ...

Intermediate Excel User

What do you like best? That there are way more functions and ways of making processes easier on Excel than most people even know. Everytime I sit down to learn from a tutorial or other function I learn something new. What do you dislike? Sometime it does not seem straight forward what so ever....Sometimes things seem like they are done in an illogical way, however more times than not they make practical sense (once you figure it out). Recommendations to others considering the ...

So vertical, use everyday.

What do you like best? Vertical. I use it everyday in my job role. I’m able to copy and paste to some of the programs I use. Exporting to excel helps me so much by staying organized and providing accurate information. What do you dislike? In my first post I mentioned some of my programs I use. There is one that I can not copy and paste or transfer over. I personally do not use this particular program I’m speaking of but instead am provided documents created through it. With not ...

Por supuesto, cuando usas Excel para ver las cosas, no es realmente difícil y es fácil acostumbrarse a todas las fórmulas. What do you dislike? No me gusta hacer doble clic en ...
