Microsoft Excel

It’s fine. It’s a tool we all need to know how to use given its popularity, capabilities, and functionality. The basics are easy to learn, but there is a big learning curve when it comes to the more complex formulas and understanding how you can maximize Excel as a tool. I feel ok in my abilities, and there will always be others that I ask for help as some things feel beyond my comprehension.

Microsoft Excel is best for sorting large amounts of data points. Think of client databases, where you might have separate fields for first name, last name, phone number, company, address, sales rep, product interest, etc it’s easy to store those data points together or sort by them. Same for product info, like price, release schedule, product category etc. my preference will always be Google Sheets however, as the interface in Sheets is faster, smoother, and more aesthetically pleasing.
