Spreadsheet Replacement


Assisting organisations reduce dependency and risks from complex spreadsheets.

Spreadsheets are great tools and widely used across most businesses. The problem is that, over time, some take on a role much larger and more critical than initially envisaged, becoming complex, error prone and a hindrance to the business.

  • Data entry validation reduces keying errors
  • Rich embedded analytics and dashboards
