Microsoft Excel 2021

Microsoft Excel 2021 is a spreadsheet program that allows you to perform calculations, data analysis and charting quickly and easily. With Excel 2021, you can organise and analyse data more efficiently, create reports and presentations, and collaborate with others in real time.

Never before have so many features been packed into one product. Whether for work or home, Microsoft Excel 2021 is the most versatile application for these areas.

Key features of Excel 2021

• Improved Performance: Microsoft Excel 2021 is the most efficient and stable version of Excel to date. It comes with improved performance on all Windows-based systems. With this new update you will be able to experience and compute faster operations (calculations, chart generation, etc.) that will allow for a smoother workflow in your workday.
• Visual refresh: The new and improved startup experience will help you start your project the right way. With a revamped ribbon, updated tabs for easier access to tools. It also comes with new Monoline iconography that communicates the action with simple visuals, it doesn't get any more practical than this!
• XLOOKUP: The XLOOKUP feature is a game changer in Microsoft Excel 2021. Now you can find anything much easier without having to spend precious minutes scrolling up and down in your sheets, or using less efficient search functions. The function can be used to find anything you need in tables or ranges with a single row.
• LET function: This is a powerful addition that will help you as a spreadsheet user. It is especially useful for storing intermediate calculations, values or defining names within formulas and outputting them all at once instead of one by one.
• XMATCH function: With XMATCH, you can search for and return a specific element of an array or range of cells. You can also use this function to get the absolute position of a value within another array, which is really useful if you are trying to find cells in different ranges.

Additional capabilities

• Dynamic Arrays: Excel formulas that return a set of values, also known as arrays. They are powerful tools for analysing data. This behaviour is called "spilling". It can be used in many different ways with cells to create complex formulas or just to get quick answers from a cell.
• Insert premium content: It's time to upgrade your Office library. With the updated library, you can create professional documents with rich media content. Microsoft is constantly adding more shapes and icons to this collection.
• Microsoft Search: With Microsoft Search, find what you need with a single click. The new Microsoft Search box is located at the top of the application in Windows. This box offers powerful features to help users quickly locate whatever information they are looking for.
• New Draw tab: Excel 2021 makes it easier to work with digital ink. With the new additions to the Draw tab, you can now access all your tools from one place. In addition, you can also quickly change its colours without having to open another application.
• OpenDocument format support: New to this software is extended support for the OpenDocument file format (ODF). This specification was updated with version 1.3 from ODF 1.2 to include even more capabilities than before.
