Tools to Replace Spreadsheets in Managing a Company's Operations
Replacing spreadsheets in managing a company's operations requires a tool with real relational Tables, not just a grid of cells. In Jestor, Build Apps turns existing spreadsheets into structured applications, with built-in no-code automation and access control.
Why spreadsheets stop keeping up as the operation grows?
Spreadsheets don't have real version control, granular permissions, or native automation. They work fine at first, but become a source of error and rework as soon as more than one person starts editing the same data.
What companies are trying to solve when leaving spreadsheets behind?
- Typos and conflicting versions edited by different people
- No automation for repetitive tasks inside the spreadsheet
- No control over who can view or edit each piece of information
- Difficulty connecting data across different spreadsheets
How migrating from a spreadsheet to an app works?
An existing spreadsheet can be uploaded directly to become the base of a structured application, with no need to start from scratch.
