### "Coach's Life Saver" — 5.0/5

> **Avery** | *5 September 2024* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's easy to use and I can whip up the app on my mobile from anywhere to access my sheets. In my coaching role this is especially helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't identified any cons in approx. five years of use.
> 
> I use Sheets outside of my day job and the functionality is the same as Excel. I use it to track business finance, student details, Ah and exporting results from Google Forms is a very helpful function.

### "I Quit Excel\!" — 5.0/5

> **Ninos** | *28 July 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: we've used Excel for years, it being the industry standard somehow, we found Google Sheets way better.&#10;Lightweight&#10;No setup required&#10;FREE\!&#10;Easy collaboration - you just need a Google account.&#10;Third party apps &#10;and Google App Scripts, to further create custom functions.&#10;It's portable and available on cloud.&#10;one more thing, the UI is clean, you do not get lost and the function names make sense.. try that with Excel\! good luck\!
> 
> **Cons**: Only thing i could think of from past experience, wish we could Lock or Disable "editors" from downloading or exporting the sheet.
> 
> Very pleased with Google Sheets, we use it daily , we integrate it in many business operations its part of the ecosystem.&#10;Great software, free and lightweight.&#10;Ticks all the boxes.&#10;the new updates with some AI integration are cool too\!

### "One of the best spreadsheet application" — 5.0/5

> **Anastasios** | *27 August 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great functionality and capabilities. You can also interconnect different GSheets using functions to import data. The ease of collaborating live is also a great functionality.
> 
> **Cons**: Some limitations with the size of data some functions can handle.

### "Google Sheets Can Do It All" — 5.0/5

> **Nicholas** | *18 March 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Google Sheets, both free and paid, is one of my favorite new pieces of software in the last few years. It has allowed us to collaborate on important documents even faster than before, with real-time changes being made as we go. It couldn't be easier to use, and the user interface is nearly perfect. I have documents with complex formulas set-up, so all I, or my coworkers, need to do is plug in a handful of numbers, and we'll get much more data back as a result. We even use it for simple collaboration projects, such as catalog editing. Google Sheets is worth every cent.
> 
> **Cons**: Google Sheets is lacking a few features that Microsoft Excel has, so occasionally we will have to export to Excel, make a few changes, and re-import the file to Sheets. Customer support is also somewhat slow, and sometimes unable to offer solutions.
> 
> I use Google Sheets to collaborate with other offices, allowing for easier editing of critical and time-sensitive projects. We have created our own templates for a few things, the main template being our product catalog, which we also use to help keep prices accurate and match across offices/companies.
