MS Excel support – your data calculation is in safe hands
Excel is undoubtedly an indispensable tool for creating data sheets and is used by companies in all industries worldwide. Its versatility enables a wide range of applications, from inventory management to yield calculation or simple list management. In addition, such datasheets can be expanded and automated through the integration of VB scripts, which offers additional flexibility and efficiency in business use.
Optimizing existing Excel sheets is crucial for improved efficiency and data integrity. At soxes we offer individual approaches to improve existing Excel applications. Our Excel experts recommend clear structuring, modularization of formulas and a uniform naming convention. Integrating database solutions improves data management and enables better scalability. Cloud-based tools like Microsoft 365 also promote real-time collaboration and improve teamwork. The introduction of detailed access controls and professional version control systems strengthens the security of Excel applications. Our goal is to make your Excel sheets an efficient, secure and easy-to-use resource so your business can reach its full potential.
Customers who count on our Excel support
SIK supports communities in purchasing, renting and managing machines. She was looking for a competent partner who would take over the development of a management tool for tenders based on MS Excel. The project involves re-factoring and re-design of the existing tool. In a first step, soxes familiarized itself with all the regulations and specifications for tenders in order to understand the process. The necessary VBA macros were then developed and the Excel program was redesigned to guide the user more efficiently through the tendering process. You can find all the details and results of the collaboration here!
Of course, Excel can also be used effectively as an integral part of an application architecture. A positive example of this is the development of the “Inside” application for Inrate AG by soxes. Here, an Excel export was seamlessly integrated into the web application, which is used to create sustainability ratings. Customers have the option of accessing the ratings via their web account, with the Excel document being generated by a VB.NET script. This approach impressively demonstrates the versatility and customization options of Excel in application development. Here you will find exclusive insights into the web application!
Problems and obstacles when using Excel
Excel is one of the most widely used spreadsheet software and has helped businesses organize, analyze and present data over the years. Excel’s flexibility allows users to create complex tables, formulas, and visualizations. But with increasing data volume and more complex requirements, Excel developments can reach their limits.
Excel can cause difficulties in ensuring data integrity and consistency in large, multi-user workbooks. The scalability and performance of Excel reach their limits when large amounts of data have to be processed. True real-time collaboration and seamless teamwork are limited in Excel, which can create challenges in multi-user projects. There are also limitations when it comes to security, access control, and automation and integration. Excel offers limited options for implementing security measures and granular access controls. Automating complex processes and integrating with other systems can also be challenging.
For companies facing these challenges, replacing Excel with professional databases or specialized software solutions is essential. This is particularly relevant when it comes to managing business-critical processes, processing large amounts of data, securing sensitive information and meeting strict compliance requirements.
Time to replace Excel!
Are you stuck with your Excel solution? Keeping old IT systems and complex applications can have a variety of consequences that can negatively impact your business. We replace your Excel sheets with more advanced technologies such as .NET or SQL Server professionally, quickly and easily. This modernization not only enables adaptation to current technological standards, but also opens up the option for modular expansion of the application, which is particularly relevant when requirements are increasing rapidly.
Successful re-engineering or re-factoring makes handling your processes much easier. This means your new application can efficiently handle growing requirements and amounts of data. At the same time, you increase your efficiency and ensure flexibility for future developments.
