- thibautg 8y agoPostgreSQL should be accessible by default to anyone. And Excel should require approbation from higher management and IT after a painful bureaucratic procedure. Unfortunately it’s always the other way around. Don’t get me wrong: I really like Excel. But I don’t encode any data in Excel sheets anymore. Now I store everything in a PostgreSQL DB and use ODBC for native access and Pivot tables.
