![]() ![]() OpenDocument standard formats are not supported either. TABLEEDIT MAC SPREADSHEET PDFExport is limited to CSV and PDF formats. Unfortunately it's use is limited for business users. It has all the formulas you ever need for home use. Table is a great tool to maintain tables and unlike some others has great capabilities to format and print. There is still some room for improvements, but, for all people like myself, who need spreadsheets from time to time but want a simple, understandable environment, I have the feeling that Tables is on the way to become THE right solution on the Mac. Once again, I am not a heavy user, but from my own experience for the past two months, I can only praise that application. Always very helpful, taking time to explain even simple things which I had not understood properly. Each time I asked a question, I received a courteous, precise, detailed reply from the developer a few hours later. In addition, I should mention that support is top quality. Thanks to Tables, I find spreadsheets much less intimidating than they used to be! Moreover, Tables offers a very pleasant environment, Mac-like: I had tested the other spreadheet applications for Mac, none was as easy to use, none provided the same comfort and elegant, uncluttered, bright environment. What I like is that Tables is that it is rather easy to use - there is a learning curve for people like me who are not very comfotable with spreadsheets, but it is not steep, and I assume there is no learning curve at all for somebody who is more familiar with spreadhseets. And export works well: I do all the work in Tables, then export the finished work to Excel, without any problem. I bought it once it got the ability to export to Excel. ![]() Tables has solved my problem and provided an elegant substitute. Quite often, I was going back to AppleWorks, and then completing the work in Excel. I am not a heavy user of spreadsheets, but I need them from time to time, and I have always found Excel not very pleasant, despite its powerful features. The cost of Tables and iWork together is still cheaper then getting MS Office and provides a much better experience for the user. In my toolbox, there is a place for both and I for one am super happy to never use Excel again. Oddly enough, Tables also has more control over the formatting of cells, particularly numbers. ![]() In some cases I will crunch data in Tables, and then copy/paste results of that into Numbers for use in Keynote. Numbers is great for presentations, where you have a limited amount of information that is usually going into Pages or Keynote. TABLEEDIT MAC SPREADSHEET PROTry importing a 23401 row / 33 column CSV file into Numbers and hear your MacBook Pro fan kick into overdrive for a while. Tables is better then Numbers for actually crunching numbers and data. I often use Tables with data extracted from databases as CSV files to "massage" and analyze the data and assorted other such needs. But Tables is much faster when using lots of data and overall feels more responsive. Numbers is a slick application (reminds me of an old Mac Spreadsheet called Trapeze) and overall I like it. Like many, I bought iWork 08 as soon as it came out. TABLEEDIT MAC SPREADSHEET WINDOWSThe last crash I had was due to an Input Manager and not Tables.Įxcel compatibility has been pretty good, with no problems sharing files with Windows Excel users. In just a few months it has gone from usable to excellent. Tables is constantly improving and the developer has been very responsive to issues. ![]()
