Microsoft Excel is still well-used in the era of Google Sheets. Learning platform Coursera compared the two spreadsheet systems side-by-side, noting some of the advantages of the former.
For one, Excel has a faster processing speed as a desktop application, unlike a web-based platform like Google Sheets. It is also better equipped to handle larger data sets and more complex calculations.
Many users also prefer Excel for data presentation because it allows better customization for PDF conversion. An analysis by Adobe noted that while sharing a PDF spreadsheet via Google Sheets is easier, Excel provides more control options for appearance and formatting.
Users can create an output that looks more professional and well-presented with the added versatility.
Proficiency in using Excel also has its advantages. According to HR and Relationship Management leader Tania Marler, candidates applying for a job have a higher chance of getting hired if they have expertise using the platform since it is widely used in many companies.
“Possessing advanced Excel skills can significantly enhance your employability and open doors to career advancement,” Marler wrote in an article for LinkedIn.

This isn't Excel, it's Outlook. I had a colleague who automatically hit Reply All - even when the boss was asking for personal details, or someone had just told them they were popping out for a few minutes. Only tell people who need to know (or care)!

Apart from enhanced employability, achieving a good level of mastery in Excel can also be profitable. According to June 2024 statistics by Glassdoor, the total annual pay range for an Excel data analyst in the United States is between $81,000 and $129,000. The median total pay is $102,000.
To break it down further, the calculated annual base pay is between $70,000 and $109,000. Then comes additional pay of up to $20,000 per year, which could include cash bonuses and tips.

Excel users, we’d like to hear from you. Which of these photos do you relate to the most? And what about the platform do you like or dislike? Let’s begin a nerdy discussion in the comments below!

Provided it didn't take anything else with it (doubtful), I might actually be able to get some work done!!!

We use Macs and all of our servers are Linux, so we didn't get impacted either :(

I write a lot of manuals for work. If you have to insert photos use tables. You can split the tables and have the photo on the side you want and even add arrows and they won't move. Also use page break so what you do on the next page is independent. When you finish go to table properties and make the boarders lines invisible. Save and then save as PDF, send to client. PS. Use a simple paint program like paint net to reduce the resolution of the photos so you save Mb..you don't need 2000x 2000. 400x400 is more then enough for a word doc

This is the very reason why Excel is thriving. Many apps meant to supersede it are too specialised. They are very structured and methodical. They do not allow any flexibility and edge cases to exist. Real world data are messy and full of edge cases.

In my first few years of university, the university released end semester examination results in bulk for all subjects (every student’s grade was visible to others). During my vacations at the end of those semesters I made spreadsheets of the marks of the top 20% of students. Columns for different subjects and then a total column AND then a ranking column. I just wanted to see where I stood and who my competitors were 🤣 As a medical student Excel wasn’t even something remotely related to my studies 😂

This doesn't make this any more of an Excel or even IT comment, but here's the rest: "If you’re great at your job and add value to the company, then you can do whatever you want so long as that value sustains. Employers will look away from your non-compliance unless/until your non-compliance causes envious low-value colleagues to complain and create disruption that more than offsets your high-value. So, don’t be obvious about your “rule” breaking. Follow me if you like raw and powerful career advice."

I took a new job which 'requires' high level Excel skills, and it turns out the only use they have for it is to make simple lists of data from the CRM, and think I'm a minor genius for running a report and saving it as a spreadsheet rather than retyping the data one entry at a time. One of many reasons I will be looking for another new job very soon.

BP, seriously: Ads on top of ads on top of ads, including a best buy ad that I had to minimize no less than 10 times, and when I stopped minimizing it and just let it take up half the screen, it eventually disappeared by itself just so it could reappear 10 seconds later. You really are making the experience of this website as annoying as humanly possible. Dear advertisers: I have literally never once bought anything because of an ad on a website, all ads are to me is a test of how fast I can find and press the little X to close the ad. I don't even see who the advetiser is most of the time. You are wasting your money.
