Fight information overload from Excel spreadsheets

Most Excel spreadsheets are overly detailed

Spreadsheets need the details in order to calculate the sub-totals, filter the critical records, and create the charts that you actually look at. What you need to see first is "the big picture" -- the totals, charts, and exceptional values that are in the spreadsheet. But, those are often buried in the details.

If you are regularly receiving a number of spreadsheets from various departments and associates, you get overwhelmed with details. You waste time, and often miss the critical information in the spreadsheets.

Xcelential dashboards allow you to focus on the "big picture"

Select the charts, totals, and critical records from a spreadsheet once, and paste it into an Xcelential dashboard. Suddenly, you find that you have the key information you need in a very small space.

Do that for all the other spreadsheets you receive regularly. That gives you a dashboard that shows you all the critical information from all the different files, on a single screen. Now you can prioritize. Zero-in on the items that most need your attention.

You no longer have to hunt for the individual Excel files. You no longer have to wade through all the unnecessary details just to look for one important piece of information.

Best of all, you don’t lose any of the details, anyway. With Xcelential, you just double-click on a key indicator on the dashboard, and the underlying Excel spreadsheet opens up. If the indicators show that you need to go to the details, the spreadsheet is conveniently available. There is no need to go hunting through your emails or shared folders looking for the Excel file.
