OutDo: the Excel alternative that scales
Excel is a flexible tool for calculations and analysis. With Microsoft 365, it also supports co-authoring, version history and automation. The difference is how operations are organised: OutDo connects records, processes and teams in a configurable system, instead of depending on the structure and maintenance of files.
OutDo vs Excel
| Feature | OutDo | Excel |
|---|---|---|
| Many users at once | Yes, with the plan’s editors | Co-authoring in supported versions, with OneDrive or SharePoint |
| Who sees what | Included in Scale and Enterprise | File sharing and sheet/cell protection |
| History / audit | Change log | Version history in OneDrive or SharePoint |
| Automations | Workflows and alerts in Pro | VBA, Office Scripts and Power Automate |
| Data organisation | Shared records and relationships | Sheets, tables and data models |
| Role views (tablet/phone) | Yes | Desktop, web and mobile apps |
OutDo features depend on the plan. Automations and API are available in Pro; fine-grained permissions and the external portal are included in Scale and Enterprise. See included features
Which one makes sense for you
When OutDo is the better fit
OutDo makes sense when several people depend on the same data and you need permissions, history and automations, or when your Excel is already big and fragile, with more than one version making the rounds.
When Excel makes sense
Excel makes sense for one-off calculations, quick prototypes and one-person ad-hoc analysis. As a spreadsheet, it is unbeatable.
