When first starting Macabacus, it might be overwhelming for a user - might be helpful to highlight the most commonly used applications / shortcuts. That could be helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the customizable aspects of the software that allow me to set very specific tools / fonts / shortcuts that significantly improve efficiency and workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the only downside of Macabacus is the inability to use the F4 function when I have special pasted / formatted in excel. Due to the customization of the shortcuts, this standard Microsoft shortcut does not always work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Macabacus provides simple ways of reducing repetitive work in Excel. This helps you to reduce 60-80 % the time dedicated to such tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish for more features, like the existing ones Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, very robust set of tools for manipulating excel files to come out as good as possible. I especially like the number and currency formatting, color coding, borders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish i could more easily port my customized macabacus settings into other devices -- like on my laptop, my home desktop etc. Today, I have to recreate each time I set up a new device Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love its useability and its foreward thinking approach. It really has a function for almost everything I can think of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the funcitonality is so advanced that I get confused with the endlessly customizable functions of the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Really good to use when working with Excel and PPT at the same time. Can easily update charts between the files. There's also good file cleanup/optimize functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Works awful with CapitalIQ excel plug-in. You can't have them both enabled at the same time or else Excel will crash. I also haven't found a great shortcut manual to take advantage of all the features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Saves hours once you learn it. Helps make things look more professional (and quickly).

Once you get your team set up, coordinating across team becomes much easier as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Undo functionality gives a false sense of security. It doesn't work. You should model with the expectation that anything you do with Macabacus can't be undone.

Also random bugs can stay in the releases for years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Saves tons of time. Makes formatting easier and better looking. Cross functionality with other MS Office programs. Share info / files / formatting with team. Shortcuts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Updates are difficult to receive through IT .exe filters. So my product is always out of date.

CTRL + Z / undo does not work at all. Might actually be better if the feature was removed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quicker shortcuts, easier to update excels and clean excels Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes when running Macros you can't undo, but otherwise no complaints Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Macabacus is relatively lightweight and has a great user interface. The core functionality works very well and the integration within the whole MS Office suite is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the power user features like trace precedents, editing traced precedents, etc. don't always work and would require multiple tries for it to work properly. Factset for example doesn't have this issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
