"Seamless Microsoft Office Integration That Speeds Up Complex Tasks"

5/5

What do you like best about Microsoft Copilot?

I like that it’s integrated seamlessly into their products, such as Excel, Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint. Access to the tool is very simple—there’s a visible floating icon you can just click. It helps with pretty much any task you can think of using it for. |The tool helps improve the performance of complicated sheets, which it calculates faster.

There’s also a separate application, which is useful when you want to do tasks that aren’t directly related to the software you’re using at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Copilot?

The first dislike is that you need to have admin rights to install it from Microsoft Store. The second dislike is that you need to pay extra to have that tool integrated with their apps. Sometimes the issue is that you have to restart the app because Copilot doesn't see an active document. In the free version, it cannot work with files other than those defined; also, if it is just a text document but has an extension other than txt - you have to change it to work with it.

What problems is Microsoft Copilot solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me create macros even if I’m not familiar with programming, and it also makes it easier to debug those macros when they don’t work on the first attempt.

Debugging solver issues in FEA is much easier now as well. It can track problematic nodes from diagnostic files (Abaqus, Optistruct) and provides solver-related hints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
