- nandemo 14y agoThe financial industry uses a lot of Excel too.
- jeff303 14y agoYeah but usually not as the system of record/origin for any data. Mostly for consuming data from elsewhere, and often in conjunction with various plugins (some of which can allow Excel to act as the "front end" to a production server that actually crunches/stores the numbers).
