A better comparison would be Google Sheets vs. Excel in Microsoft 365. All of the collaborative features you describe for Google Sheets are also available in Excel, I use them at work.
"you can't go wrong with either" is a seriously false statement. What you forgot to mention in your video is that Google Sheets only has a market share of 5.73% in the business world. Microsoft Excel has an 81% market share. That is a huge difference when trying to get hired in the business world. Basically a company is 81% more likely to use Microsoft Excel. So learning Microsoft Excel will benefit you greatly. There's a big learning curve between Google Sheets to Microsoft Excel. I've tried learning Google sheets on and off for 3 years I just don't understand it. But then again, I've been using Microsoft Excel since 1995. I can find and do what I need to do in Excel very well. 81% of business companies will expect you to as well.
Very helpful. To me it comes down to performance. I am currently running tests on Google Sheets to see if it can handle datasets with over 10K rows. So far its good but it can get laggy when using the "restore versions" feature. It would be nice to mention what "large data" means, since to most people what Google Sheets can handle would be more than enough. With Excel though I never have to worry about the app ever getting "laggy".
🤦🏾♀️ THANK YOU! Boy! Basics is fundamental! This whooollleee time I’m thinking google sheets and excel are the SAME thing 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEO! (I know you probably thought it was too basic of a video to put out but I PROMISE it just cracked my frustration for the past couple days! 🫶🏾)
Google Sheets doesn't have a save or save as button ....it's a no no for me.....tI don't always want to save all the files all the changes at all times sometimes I just want to work on a spreadsheet send it to Who do I have to send it to and go back to the original file
Hi. I'm developer of google smart work services (google apps script, calendar, etc..). I'm curious what strength of google sheets has compared to excel has?
I find GS is so much more useable and modern. Excel shows it's age with stupid legacy stuff. Also, GS automation is easier compared to the awful VBA nonsense

Alex, you killed it, man! That was quick, tasty, and satisfying!

if 5% use sheets and 80% use excel, that means a business is 16 times more likely to use excel, not 81% more likely
Thanks 😊 man that's what I was searching for.

You're so welcome! Glad it helped you. This is why we make these videos!!
Very well compiled!
Glad you think so!
Can you record VB macros in Google Sheets? And can you use Google Sheets offline? I would not be able to do my job without VB.
Excel does offer cloud based collaboration and autosave if you save the file in onedrive. What are you talking about?

Such a hard NO, for something so simple. You can make a duplicate of the sheet and delete it after.
No need to save in Google sheets because it is in cloud not in your system also it has backup feature for daywise.
That’s why you make a copy and then continue tweaking the original 🌝
I just renewed my subscription to Microsoft 360 for another year but I will give Google sheet another shot …
thank you , that was helpful
Excel is more clear and faster and good features, but Google sheet is less stress and if you are working small documents
You deserve more subs
This is the most neutral opinion/comparison and the information what I need to know which to choose between those two..thank you
I really appreciate your videos 🇴🇲 ❤
I excel I can do anything much faster than in gs.
IN excel. Ok, i excel.🤗
thanks
Just asking is this an advertisement?
No. We don't get paid by either Excel or Google for this. Our goal is to make life easier for you where we can!
I had food inventory in Google sheets. 3 years of work diappeared. There is no way to recover it because it is not in my trash. A big waste.
What happened?
To be honest, these days, Google sheets is more useful.
Right

I think so too, Excel's VBA is subordinated to Microsoft production only. but Apps script is a one of programming language similar to Javascript.
And winner is (hate to say it) Excel
Microsoft just increased their annual subscription fee by 50%. Ridiculous.
Google sheets is unadulterated garbage.
Excel*
@@trex511ft do you know how tables work in Excel? It took sheets up until this year to finally add such a basic feature from like 2007 in Excel
