If you wanted to start expanding features look at macabacus. It's a darling for finance folks on Windows but has no Mac support. The way it handles stored formats and keyboard access is a wonderful feature for productivity as is the formula auditing features.
- msoh 4y agoThank you for this. I’ve been toying with this idea - there is a technical path to this with Microsoft’s JavaScript office API, since vba isn’t available on Macs. But the limited market size is what’s giving me pause.
- conductr 4y agoSure thing. I'd have the same concern. Their feature set is robust but I think there is a pareto effect in play. I think just the features I mentioned are 80% of the tool's value, you could probably charge >=2x what they do, and those feature have "broader than finance" appeal. However, back to your point, I've never seen finance folks use a Mac for actual work so the market is probably tiny.
