A new report details how Microsoft has cut some internal goals for AI sales, why? Nobody wants to use its weak products.

    I feel like Google sheets is a better experience than Excel, at least for my personal usage. I’m not enterprise though, and not trying to run it like a database or anything crazy.

      If I’m using it in browser, sure. But as a standalone application, no comparison IMO.

        I’ve tried both. I think part of it is friction from little behaviors that I expect to be like Google sheets but aren’t. I don’t even know what they are until I hit some keys and excel does the “wrong” (but probably reasonable) thing.

          I have the reverse, I am so used to Excel from work that using Google sheets can be really annoying.

        Yeah there truly is no comparison to Excel (derogatory).

        (I’m just bitter because of VBA okay?)
