- arcbyte 3y agoIt is, but the users don't care. They want a spreadsheet with updated data from Salesforce combined with info from Servicenow and some stock tickers. Local, web, punchcards, the user does not care. Today there's a mess of Google Sheets with data pulled in from Zapier, but it's no difference to the user if it's Excel with OLE interfaces from local programs.
