Google Sheets vs. Excel: It’s Time to End the Debate If you’re still comparing Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel, it’s time to face the facts: Google Sheets has closed the gap, and in some cases, it’s ahead of Excel. For years, Excel was the go-to for complex data analysis and financial modeling. But Google Sheets is no longer just a lightweight alternative. With robust features, real-time collaboration, and seamless integration within Google Workspace, Sheets is highly competitive and excels where Excel struggles. Collaboration Is Key Google Sheets was built for the cloud. Real-time collaboration, shared editing, and commenting are baked in. Whether you’re working with a remote team or need instant feedback, Sheets makes it easy. In today’s work environment, the ability to collaborate without version issues is a game-changer that Excel still can’t match. Simplicity That Works Some argue Excel’s deep feature set makes it superior. But how often do most users actually need that complexity? For most tasks—data analysis, project management—Google Sheets has all you need without the bloat. Plus, with Google Apps Script, you can automate workflows, create custom functions, and build applications within Sheets. Powerful Integrations Google Sheets excels at integrations. Pulling data from Google Analytics, connecting with other Google Workspace tools, or integrating with third-party apps is easy. The automation capabilities through Google Apps Script make Sheets a versatile solution, outpacing Excel’s outdated VBA.

But Sheets is cloud-native, scalable, and designed for modern workflows. Unless your work requires Excel’s most advanced features, Google Sheets is more than capable—and often better suited—to meet your needs. So, the next time someone tells you Excel is still king, just smile and know that you’re already ahead of the curve. #GoogleSheets #Productivity #Collaboration #Automation #Cloud

I have the gewoonte to write in English want the majority of mijn contacten don't talk Nederlands. Should ik schrijven in both languages --Dutch en Engels-- of should ik alleen be writing in Engels? Wat think jij? In any geval not in this manier.

Doet me denken aan de BBC-REEKS "Grumpy Old Men" van het begin van de eeuw. (ben er ondertussen zelf één)

De laatste keer dat ik speelde met treintjes was toen ik 12 jaar oud was.

I quit my Google Gemini AI subscription… and kept my ChatGPT subscription instead. AI is everywhere these days, right? Google finally jumped in, integrating Gemini into Google Docs, Google Slides, and more. Sure, AI can be a lifesaver when you’re staring at a blank page in Google Docs. But here’s the catch: if you’re a Dutch speaker, Gemini falls short. Unlike ChatGPT, it doesn’t support Dutch. For me, 50% of my writing is in Dutch and 50% in English. Copying and pasting from ChatGPT is a small price to pay. Paying full price for Google’s limited language support? Not worth it. What AI tools do you use, and how do they handle multilingual support?
