Replace Excel
Excel Quick Check for a well-founded initial assessment in just a few minutes
Evaluate in a structured way whether your Excel file is still sustainable or whether automation, a web app, or a gradual modernization would make more sense. The Excel Quick Check helps you quickly classify risks, bottlenecks, and potential.
Before Excel turns into a real process risk, it is worth making a clean assessment
Many companies keep using Excel productively far longer than it was originally intended for. That is not automatically a problem. It becomes critical when several people work in parallel, approvals are unclear, input errors become more frequent, or important workflows depend too heavily on individual files and manual steps.
That is exactly what this Excel Quick Check is for: not as a theoretical questionnaire, but as a structured initial assessment for real business processes. You briefly describe your use case, typical issues, and your desired target setup. Based on that, it becomes clear early on whether Excel automation, a web app, or another modernization step is the more sensible option.
If you already know that you want to replace your spreadsheets in the long run, Excel to Web App and Excel Automation are also relevant next pages.
Focus on Real Problems
Versions, manual input, missing permissions, history, or interfaces are assessed directly in their business context.
Better Basis for Decisions
Instead of vague assumptions, you get a more solid basis for deciding whether automation or an individual software solution is worth it.

Typical situations where an initial assessment creates clarity quickly
Several people work on the same file
As soon as Excel is used collaboratively, file conflicts, duplicates, and uncertainty about the current state usually increase significantly.
Errors have operational impact
If incorrect inputs or missing validations cause real costs, delays, or extra effort, structured validation is often more important than additional workarounds.
Manual steps consume too much time
Copy-paste, rework, reformatting, and manual reporting are typical signals that Excel is no longer a good fit for the process.
Frequently Asked Questions about the Excel Quick Check
It is for companies that use Excel for operational processes, administration, reporting, or internal workflows and want to assess whether automation or a web app would make sense.
No. Uploading is optional. A file can make the assessment more concrete, but it is not required.
Yes. For an initial assessment, it is completely sufficient if the structure, sheets, columns, and logic are recognizable. Real production data is not necessary.
You receive an initial expert assessment of where the biggest bottlenecks are and whether automation, gradual modernization, or a web app replacement makes the most sense.
The quick check serves as a non-binding initial assessment so that the current situation and possible next steps can be evaluated in a structured way.
Especially when several people work at the same time, roles and permissions become important, history is missing, or spreadsheets have become too complex and error-prone from a business perspective.
