    2013-2016 excel is GOATed tbh. Usable and without the cloud bullshit Microsoft tried to push in the coming years

    (Yes, I still wish this wasn’t the industry standard office suite)

      I’ve worked for a company that used google instead of microsoft, man… that was hard. It’s not standard for nothing, it’s a lot better.

        My company used Google for a few years. Higher level Excel users hated Sheets and didn’t give up Excel. But for the rest of us riffraff Sheets was great. The collaboration features work really well, better than Office 360.

          I’m one of the Excel guys, I live by tables, PowerQuery, VBA/UDFs, and loading data from APIs and SQL databases. If any of that functionality lives in Sheets I’ve never been able to figure it out productively.

          My last contract used Sheets and I felt like a toddler, it’s too different for my tastes.
