## Reviews

### "fantastic tool" — 5.0/5

> **Craig** | *November 6, 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: A superb tool for data bases, records, diaries etc. very easy to use and absolutely free so great value for money saves automatically in Google drive so can be shared with colleagues for collaboration. formulars are easy to set up with commonly used formular available in a drop down menu. Just as versitile as other branded versions of the software. you can draw from other google sheets and documets too which makes life so much easier.
> 
> **Cons**: Functionaility is great, It'd be great if you could password some sheets to be locked from sight. so you can share a file amongst collegues but only allow each member to see a dedicated sheet.
> 
> Fantastic tool. We use it for so many applications; for keeping an eye on accounts, creating check lists, rotas etc.

### "The only sheet you need" — 4.0/5

> **Suraj** | *December 18, 2025* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to use. You can directly access it from the web. You can access it from anywhere. User interface is very intuitive, and it makes collaboration smooth. There are many templates available that you can directly make use of.
> 
> **Cons**: This variant YouTube lacks feature capabilities of Microsoft Excel. Google Sheets also has performance issues. Sometimes it freezes and slows down as workloads become large or complex.
> 
> Using Google Sheets in comparison with Microsoft Word is such a breeze. The UI is intuitive, it's easy to apply formulas, it's easy to use data formatting, and the templates were great. And now with the use of Gemini AI, it just makes easier.

### "Free Excel equivalent, top tier spreadsheet system\!" — 5.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *April 10, 2026* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Like Excel, but don't want to pay for all that? Google gives you the free version and is full of easy to use features in a user-friendly system. Calculations and formulas are super easy and lots of built-in templates for everything.
> 
> **Cons**: It's not \*quite\* as robust as Excel, but it's still awesome. Sometimes it feels like "excel lite" and can seem like it can't do everything the same (but it does, mostly)

-----

### "Excel on the cheap" — 3.0/5

> **Andrew** | *April 9, 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: super connectivity with google drive and so sheets can be shared easily and it's free
> 
> **Cons**: Maybe I've been trained by microsoft but google sheets like a lot of google's prodcuts are hard to manage, no save option, no easy way to drag and drop files.
> 
> Google sheets is a kind of poor persons MS excel, especially with the clunky file manipulation

-----

### "User friendly and effective but poor chart design capabilities" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *March 14, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Google sheets is very user friendly. Anyone can pick it up and find where things are enough to accomplish what they are trying to do. Connections to things like apps script is helpful when needing to do complicated things. Formulas such as ArrayFormula are incredibly helpful as well.
> 
> **Cons**: Working with charts in sheets is difficult. You can't sort your data a certain way, you can't format each data point easily, and you have to do through custom formulas in conditional formatting to highlight duplicate values. If you need it sorted and formatted in individual colors, the colors change when the order changes. Charts are the biggest issue with Sheets.
> 
> Overall, it is user friendly and gives you a lot of value for free or with a low cost of Google Workspace.
