Spreadsheets
Interface
Presidio Vantage specializes in Spreadsheet facilities
across diverse industries and technical layers.
We employ Spreadsheets to bring structure to chaotic data,
to apply business logic, to manage business processes,
and to interface between systems and users.
In the trade-off between ease-of-use and power of a User Interface,
Spreadsheets offer a unique advantage, a rare balance of:
- intuitive usability
- powerful complexity
- an elegant interface between the two
The results cater to the abilities of individual users
across across a spectrum of proficiencies,
bridging the gap between basic analysis and technical engineering.
Spreadsheets provide:
-
transparent access to all data,
for advanced users who use their own analytic platforms; -
enhanced analytic utilities,
for basic users to process and incorporate otherwise unintelligible data; -
seamless integration between basic and advanced components,
facilitating the combination of diverse of user strengths.
Platforms
We work with all data, regardless of its format,
but we specialize in Microsoft Excel® files
and Google Sheets® in the cloud.
