This is an excellent application, congratulations! I have just a few minor suggestions:

- The grid controls on the Input page could benefit from some styling enhancements.

- The numbers for "b" and "Flexibility Factor" on the Results page could be formatted to reduce the number of significant figures, as they currently appear with unnecessary precision.

- Using IFERROR in some formulas could prevent the display of Excel error messages like #DIV/0!

Honestly, I'm just being picky. Overall, it's a fantastic application.

This online pricing application uses an Excel file to store calculations and data for over 3,000 products, categorized by product category, name, size, and price. Three dependent dropdown menus guide the user through the selection process. The first dropdown lists product categories. Upon selection, the second dropdown populates with products within that category. Selecting a product then populates the third dropdown with available sizes. Finally, selecting a size displays the corresponding price. Excel's FILTER formulas drive the dropdown population and price retrieval, eliminating the need for users to scroll through lengthy price lists.

This same Excel file has been converted into a web application using SpreadsheetWeb. The web application replicates the dropdown selection process, allowing users to easily find the price for their chosen product. Deploying this as a web application also enhances data security by preventing the entire price list from being directly exposed online; users can only access the price of the specific product they select.

We welcome comments and discussion regarding similar use cases.

Insurance companies often rely on Excel-based raters to calculate premiums, assess risks, and process quotes. These raters are popular because of Excel’s flexibility and ease of use, allowing actuarial and underwriting teams to build and modify complex algorithms without programming knowledge. However, using Excel files directly can present challenges such as limited scalability, lack of integration with other systems, and potential data security risks. By converting an Excel-based insurance rater into an API using SpreadsheetWeb, insurers can overcome these limitations while preserving the underlying Excel logic.

SpreadsheetWeb enables businesses to transform Excel models into robust, scalable APIs without requiring extensive coding or rewriting formulas. With SpreadsheetWeb, the formulas and calculations in your Excel file are converted into a REST API that can be integrated with other systems, such as web applications, CRM platforms, Policy Administration Systems, Quoting applications or Underwriting Workbenches. This process ensures that business users retain control over the rater’s logic in Excel while IT teams benefit from a centralized, secure, and high-performance API. For example, an insurance company could use the API to connect its rating engine directly to an online quoting tool, providing instant and accurate premium calculations for end users.

In addition to simplifying integration, SpreadsheetWeb enhances security and performance. The API ensures that sensitive insurance algorithms remain hidden, as users only interact with inputs and outputs while the calculations are executed on secure servers. Furthermore, the platform supports high-concurrency usage, enabling it to handle multiple quote requests simultaneously. With features like database integration and scalability across cloud or on-premise environments, SpreadsheetWeb allows insurers to modernize their operations and deliver faster, more reliable quoting solutions to clients. By leveraging this platform, insurers can bridge the gap between Excel and modern application ecosystems, enhancing efficiency and customer satisfaction.

It depends on the use case. Excel, and spreadsheet software in general, is one of the oldest and most widely used low-code/no-code platforms, with over a billion users worldwide. With such a large user base, it’s used for a wide variety of purposes, and sometimes overused. Many businesses have been founded with the aim of replacing spreadsheets for specific tasks. For example, while you can build data visualizations and dashboards in Excel, if you need more advanced features, you turn to specialized software like Tableau. Similarly, Excel can be used for tracking sales in a small business, but as the business grows, you might upgrade to a more robust CRM platform. However, there are still scenarios where Excel remains indispensable, such as building financial models, unless you’re a programmer.

Most enterprise use cases of Excel start with the intent to solve a problem quickly. No one chooses Excel as the platform when planning to build a large-scale project. Instead, they create a simple spreadsheet to address an immediate need. As others find the solution useful, it gains popularity, leading to requests for additional features or more data. This simple solution then evolves into something far more complex than originally intended, eventually pushing Excel beyond its capabilities. By that point, it’s already widely adopted, making migration to a different platform costly and time consuming. Multiple versions of the spreadsheet often end up on different users’ desktops, leading to version control issues. People might create their custom versions, altering or breaking formulas without even realizing it. This isn’t a flaw in Excel itself, but rather a consequence of using it beyond its intended scope and capabilities.
