Microsoft Excel

The Excel application from Microsoft is a classic among spreadsheet software. It offers the ability to create, view, save and share tables, is cross-platform, and allows advanced editing, conversion, analysis and much more.

Google Sheets

Google Sheets is a cross-platform tool that you can use on your other Apple devices (iPhone, iPad) in the form of an application, while on Mac in the online version. A huge advantage of Google Sheets is – as with other office tools from Google – its free and available from virtually anywhere. In addition to traditional and advanced tools for creating, managing and editing spreadsheets, Google Sheets offers, for example, real-time collaboration, offline mode, advanced sharing options, template support and much more.
