In that respect it is a useful program. It seems to have all the same features and can calculate formula's and organise data. It also comes free with the Apple suite when we purchased our I- Macs. Personally though I would always choose to use Excel over it if able. There is a desktop which is not linked to our Microsoft 365 account. When using this computer I have to use Numbers instead of Excel. Personally, I struggle with this program. I find it harder to use than Excel. The way the page is laid out (a finite grid instead of an infinite grid) seems strange to me. Having the status bar with the equation written when clicking into a cell is something I take for granted when using Excel but you realise how essential this is when you begin to use numbers and it is not there. Maybe there are ways to make numbers more personalised and therefore user friendly to myself but I have not spent the time to explore it when Excel is exactly set up with no editing. > > **Cons**: I find Numbers complicated. Creating documents on there takes me longer than using Excel and I have not had the time to explore it fully when i know I usually have access to a program which I consider superior. > > I struggle getting on with this software. Whenever using it I always wish I was using Excel. This could be because I was bought up on Excel but it just seems more intuitive and user friendly than Numbers to me. Numbers does do what Excel does and if you have to use it or have always used it I can understand if it is your preferred choice. ----- ### "Numbers - easy to get started and get organised\! Highly recommend." — 5.0/5 > **Ella** | *25 September 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's relatively easy to use, more intuitive than excel and works well for my fairly basic needs and I know I can do more with it if and when the need arises. > > **Cons**: Nothing to complain about really\! I wish the basic "new file" had slightly bigger cells and the filled cells defaulted to a colour other than grey, but really these are very minor issues which are quite easy to change. > > I found it possible to dive straight in, start making spreadsheets and then learn more as I a went along simply by googling "how to....in numbers". As with any new software it took a little while to become really comfortable with it, but the ability to get started straight away felt positive and motivated me to keep going\! This began entirely for business purposes but I now love my spreadsheets so much, I have created several from my personal admin and household organisation - quick and easy and makes one feel in control\! :-) ----- ### "The best for spreadsheets" — 5.0/5 > **Duncan** | *30 May 2024* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use with all the necessary functions, easy to set up for invoices, estimates etc > > **Cons**: Numbers does all I need it to do, no cons found > > Numbers does all it needs to for me I use Numbers for all my admin tasks ----- ### "Spreadsheet for Apple" — 3.0/5 > **Adam** | *18 May 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to organise the data in a r ange ofncharts and graphs > > **Cons**: Its not as good as microsoft excel and will never have the same feeling > > Goidnto use for day to day spreadsheets in the office especially with a MAC ----- ### "Good Solid Spreadsheet" — 5.0/5 > **Sam** | *14 March 2025* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Included free with MacOS and works very well. > > **Cons**: Nothing, for a free product it's hard to complain when something isn't quite right. ----- Page: 1 / 101\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/170166/numbers?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/170166/numbers) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
