    Yeah, anyone who uses Excel on a professional level can tell you Google sheets etc are NO substitute for Excel. Just so many things the competitors just can’t do

      My brother is an accountant and uses sheets for a lot of non-work stuff, and specialized software for most business needs. He also uses Excel, sure, but there are substitutes for Excel in a lot of cases.

      For financials, only the companies still in the dark ages depend on Excel rather than real ERP or accounting software.

      Sheets handles pretty much all typical business needs, but we do run into issues if we’re collaborating with another company that is using macros or something in Excel.

        I work for a company that does 10s of billions in revenue, and the finance departments all use excel as well. Pretty much every giant corporations finance departments use excel.
