Spreadsheets are great for drafts, but terrible for growing companies. Conflicting versions ("Final\_v2"), lack of security, and disconnected data stall your growth. **Jestor** is the toolbox to turn your spreadsheets into secure, scalable apps.

### **The "Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V" danger**

Copying data from a Sales sheet to a Finance sheet creates human error. In Jestor, data is unique. The sale generates the finance record automatically. Everything connected.

### **Data Security**

If an employee leaves, do they take the spreadsheet on a USB drive? In Jestor, you cut access with one click and data stays with the company. Plus, you have history of who changed what.

### **Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)**

**Is it hard to migrate from Excel?** No. Jestor has an import tool where you upload your .xlsx file and it creates the database in seconds.

**Does it look like Excel?** The "Table" view is familiar, but with superpowers: you can attach files, chat in the row, and connect with other tables.

**Is it expensive?** The cost of *not having* reliable data is higher. Jestor has plans that grow with your company.

### **Conclusion**

With **Jestor**, you professionalize your management and prepare the company to scale.
