Happy to move to the web using the ACE4J library. No Excel pain points anymore.

Pros

This is the only platform on the market that allows calculation of complex formulas without Excel spreadsheets or heavily loaded external files. It has a simple syntax similar to Excel. The set of available functions is sufficient to build a serious formula based application.

Cons

The trial version of this toll gives the user a good sense of what this product is all about. However it is not a free tool.

Review source

Happy user

Pros

We used the ACE4J LAMBDA and found it very useful. The software works very fast. Heapy to move the old app to the Web.

Cons

We have not tried their customer support yet. Great tool when you have a large and complex formula set. Could not find analogous tools for free.
