You are not alone 3 in every 10 companies use Excel to run there own business processes. We have seen it used for some crazy purposes. We've also seen the nightmare when data becomes corrupt or someone has accidentally entered a figure into the wrong cell and can't remember what they did!
Working in excel to run an entire business process is very dangerous, Excel isn't designed to run a process it's a spreadsheet system designed to crunch numbers and create formulas to assist in basic tasks. If you are using Excel you really need to speak to our team about have some bespoke software created to take over the job fo the Excel spreadsheet.
Unlike actual bespoke software, It has very little to ensure data integrity, backup, and disaster recovery. It's highly prone to misentered data and over the years we have seen countless companies contact us because they've lost data. Your business data should be held in a proper database with proper backup and recovery solutions.
Don't worry, we appreciate in today's day and age companies don't have huge budgets for software, hence why you are using Excel.
Bespoke software can be surprisingly cheap, In fact, it can even save you money.
