Excel and tabular data in general is still popular way to organize and share data with your business or projects. Unfortunately distribution becomes a problem when you have to mail different sheets around, not to mention collaboration.
You can avoid that by using this great tool to share and collaborate on your data. Note, this is not suppose to be excel or google sheet replacement, but more of an improvement with its scalability, access control, encryption and other great stuff.
