For 40-some-odd years, the world of spreadsheets has been ruled by one king: Microsoft Excel. Sure, there were far away challengers that tried to overtake the beast–I’m looking at you, Lotus 1-2-3–but none have come close to dethroning the powerful tool…until Google Sheets.

Google Sheets is also free; Excel has monthly/yearly subscriptions.
