### "Steep learning curve, huge benefits"

November 15, 2022

5.0

Pros

The functionality built into Spreadsheet Server is unmatched. The ability to query data lakes and pull very specific units of data and even ledger details is something I have yet to come across in another product

Cons

It has a STEEP learning curve and is very daunting to learn. Once you are competent, the payoffs are immense and you can build some truly useful reports and tables.

### "A neat spreadsheet for you detailed reports"

December 24, 2018

5.0

Pros

We had a very peculiar situation where we wanted to make sure that all the data from our project development team, testing team, product implementation team and finally QA team would be on same page and would deliver the product to consumer as required, but the biggest task was how to get 10 different people living across the globe and sharing the same spreadsheet, so we searched and found out Spreadsheet server, that gave instant solution to our long lingering problem. As the same spreadsheet was used to collect and replay the data, it was easy enough to be accurate and to hunt down in case of discrepancy. Super joyed with the software

Cons

There are lot many layers created in the software to "Drill down"to get the results, once you are used to that, you feel it easy. But getting used to the same takes some time and then you can generate reports as required
