Reporting Hub vs sending Excel reports

Excel is excellent for working out numbers. It is less good as the thing you send to customers every week. Reporting Hub keeps your Excel exports and turns them into live, shareable dashboards.

For teams deciding whether the weekly spreadsheet is still the right way to report.

What you get

  • Keep your spreadsheets, stop rebuilding the report
  • One live version everyone sees
  • Share by link instead of attachments

When should I stop using Excel for reporting?

When building the weekly report takes hours, when people ask whether they have the latest version, or when you are sending screenshots and PDFs to customers. Those are signs a live dashboard would save time.

Is a dashboard better than a spreadsheet report?

For sharing and staying current, yes: everyone sees the same live numbers. For one-off analysis, a spreadsheet is still great. You keep both: keep working in Excel and upload the export.

Do I have to give up my spreadsheets?

No. Reporting Hub starts from the spreadsheets and exports you already have.
