## Reviews

### "Wouldn't Know What to Do Without It\!" — 5.0/5

> **Amber** | *20 February 2026* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Google Sheets is free and works just as well as the paid version of Excel. I use this for my personal finances, goal tracking, vacation budgeting, and business-related expenses, time tracking, and more. It's incredible what you can do through Gmail, and I appreciate that I can collaborate with others and access it anywhere.
> 
> **Cons**: Google Sheets can be a bit difficult to use (for my personal finances) through the app. It'd be nice if it didn't zoom out when I was moving around the document.
> 
> Google Sheets has been a huge asset to my personal and business life. This is a free tool I use on my computer and on the go to track spending and time (for clients). Amazing\!

### "Easy to Learn and Use" — 5.0/5

> **Ann** | *9 April 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that Google Sheets is part of the Google Suite and no additional product is required to be purchased.  Works just like Excel, so not much of a learning curve.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't have any complaints, it was easy to learn and formulas are just as easy to create in tables using Google Sheets.
> 
> I have been pleased with the ability to collaborate with my team using a product we can all access through our Google Business account.

### "Absolutely love Google sheets" — 5.0/5

> **Niki** | *14 May 2026* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy Google sheet is to use, I create Google sheets for my puppy births and worming schedules.
> 
> **Cons**: Wish it was a little easier to read on a cell phone screen, it’s just hard to view all the information without having to use a computer.
> 
> I have had a wonderful experience with Google sheets and have used them over the  past 5 to 6 years.

-----

### "Excel on the cheap" — 3.0/5

> **Andrew** | *9 April 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** | *14 March 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.
