Dose for Excel helps me get the job done faster. Pros I really like the text tools. They allow you to add or extract text, delete characters by position, change case, merge and split names, and many other useful functions. Plus, there's a tooltip explaining what each function does. Cons So far I haven't encountered any issues, but I encourage the app's creators to continue adding more features.

Customer Support: Again fantastic because the answer often comes on the same day as your request. Ease of Use: Simple and easy to access as Excel is. Help with the functions is also fantastic compared to excel's help. It is not as cryptic. Cons 1\. Maybe incorporate some more functions like column switch or line switch. 2. Suggest some special characters or synbols like images of +, -, Stop, Go etc... Review Source LH Leland H.

Pros Dose provides a variety of features - mostly the way it makes using somewhat obscure excel utilities (or at least obscure when Excel keeps changing it's interface - into much more intuitive commands. The other additional features - file lister for example - help with more obscure functions. Cons There isn't anything to dislike. One can always add more, of course - I constantly struggle with Charting features and someone's way of managing them more intuitively such as Dose does might be helpful! Review Source Revanth S. Application Engineer Consumer Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "An Excellent Add-In for Excel with Loads of features" October 7, 2021 4.0 Experience is good, features are useful and easy to learn.

February 19, 2019 5.0 Pros I work with Excel a lot, and it is essential to have handy Excel editing functions. Dose provides those functions to me . For example: I can remove line that contain some specific value or remove specific row with just one click. It helps increase your productivity. Cons Your computer or laptop may feel lagged when excel loads. It also takes time for you to explore all of its various functions. Review Source Michelle T. Account Manager Events Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The good and bad" September 8, 2018 4.0 I bought two licenses but the second license I was sent has never worked properly so I haven't had a lot of real world experience with it. Pros Seems like a great program. I've used it some on my home computer. But I don't use Excel much on my home computer. Cons I don't like that the license for the second copy has never worked right. And I can't seem to get any help to figure out why. All that happens is I get a pop-up that says the trial has expired and if I want to continue to use it I should buy it. I already did. :( Also can't seem to figure out how to un-install it on that computer. Review Source PR Peter R. Mr Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A Positive boost to Excel" September 6, 2022 5.0 Pros Installation was simple. Controls are very intuitive and document management adds exactly what excel misses Cons Occasionally I do have to reinstall. Not sure why maybe an issue with Excel. Not a major issue as installing is quick.

If you need to organize several groups for mail, sales, ratings, just about anything, this product is definitely the one Cons You have to know the program and its functions to be able to operate it since it has countless functions and you will see the greatness of the program Review Source BV Brian V. Program Director Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A must have for any Excel user" September 6, 2022 5.0 Pros Integrates seamlessly into Excel. Easy to turn on and off menus. I like the Favorites Cons When i select some menu items (like Work Area), I'm not sure how to get the menu bar back to normal Review Source AN Anil N. Project Manager Oil & Energy Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "DOSE review" November 6, 2023 4.0 I like the software but need support to help with my quarries, this is very lacking as it is now. Pros I purchased the software to use the numbers to text option, this was most helpful to me. Cons When the update was done , changes to the format of the numbers to words option was done, this change was not user friendly and there was no tutorial on how to use it, contacted support but no response to date for assistances, been over a month, verry poor. Reason for choosing Dose for Excel wanted a numbers to text option, the first download was great but the update made it difficult to use. Review Source TS Tim S. CTO Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Super-handy additonal functions that I now use every day" September 22, 2017 4.0 Massive time savings Pros My favourite feature is one of the simplest: a way to merge cells by row or column while keeping all the data Cons A couple of the options are slightly unclear. For instance, when merging, the terminology used is not as obvious as I would like, but it's a minor issue. Review Source WB Walter B. Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The features Microsoft overlooked" September 19, 2022 5.0 I like Dose very much... it's been a very good program to have. Pros Dose is my go-to utility in Excel when I need to make mass formatting changes such as changing the text case and finding and deleting extra, leading, or trailing spaces in large spreadsheets. Dose is a real time saver and worth every penny! Cons I can't think of anything I don't like about Dose. Review Source KV Kypros V. Project Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A nice addition to excel" September 21, 2017 4.0 Faster and easier work with excel. Pros It adds more functionality to excel for busy people. It helps you do stuff easier and faster than by using the stock application alone. Cons It makes my excel load much slower and sometimes it hangs for a few seconds while exporting or saving. Nevertheless, it's worth the interruption as I finish faster, even with the slight delays.

Calibration Technicain Information Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Dose has all the functions you so often need that isn't in Excel's functionality." October 1, 2017 5.0 Saves countless hours checking spreadsheets line by line. Pros For the price it is very easy to use and you start using it more and more ! I purchased it for the ability to trim spaces in very large spreadsheets. After importing data there is often hidden spaces in the leading and trailing space. Dose handles this quickly and easily. Cons A few times on very large spreadsheets it missed some things on first pass with spreadsheets that have been in multiple formats. Review Source PE Philip E. Owner Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excellent Excel add-on" September 21, 2017 5.0 Saves times, add features and functionality to Excel. Pros Dose is very easy to use. Interface is intuitive, features easy to access and adds functionality to Excel that you will appreciate every time you use it. Cons Could do with additional features and functionality.

Sr. Consultant Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great plugin for everyday excel users" September 17, 2018 5.0 Great product with great potential. I would recommend to have faster updates to it and with added features. Pros Great set of tools which really makes the daily work easy like the count by color and files lister (my fav) and several others. Customer support team is also super responsive. Cons None observed so far and I am sure I won't be seeing one. Review Source RW Roland W. Network Engineer Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great addition to Excel. Gives quick access to extra functions." September 23, 2017 5.0 Pros Easy accessibility to functions in Excel that are not included in the base menus. I don't have to search the internet and program those functions into a spreadsheet. Cons I use this mostly at work. On my laptop there is a 15-20 second lag for Excel to load after I installed Dose. Not a deal killer, just noticeable. Review Source KC Kevan C. N/A Computer & Network Security Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Dose vs Office 2016 vs Windows 10" August 30, 2018 5.0 Liked the trial, but when I purchased it and tried to get it to install, received nothing but problems and it never worked. I have simply written it off, and will resort to using the existing features of Office and creating my own utilities as I need them. Pros Great functionality and capabilities; numerous add-in features that improved the application Cons Did not integrate properly with Office 2016 and Windows, and despite repeated back and forth efforts with support, we were never able to get it to work Review Source AB Adnan B. Excel Monkey Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Brilliant time saver!" September 15, 2022 4.0 Pros The built-in formulas are fun and easy to use. Cons I wish it was standalone software or it worked with LibreOffice. Excel is not cheap! I wouldn't even call it affordable for casual use. Review Source Similar Products Featured
