It reduces our time as well as help us in presenting the data in more analytic manner.
You just cant make a single report without excel nowadays.. I mean nobody havent even thought of doing that because excel is so damn good.. You talk about any report or statement starting from a single page attendance sheet to large balance sheets, everyone prefers excel.. In fact using the word prefer here is not correct as there is no other option to use except EXCEL.. Its so user friendly.. Everyone does it on excel..

Ms-Excel has been a life-saver through-out my career. It has been helpful in many following ways:

1, Automate most of the routine tasks like - preparation of reports by way of linking. This helped in saving time spent in preparing similar reports every month and it gives more time for analysis and review. The reports that took almost a day could be prepared in a matter of few hours by way of cross-linking & simpler macros.

2. Keep checks and controls - Keeping a control on our reporting by way of control charts.

3. Maintaining Dashboards - These are in a way related to reporting whereby certain drivers could be monitored in a better way by using certain flags vix - red, amber and green etc.

4. Personalised To-Do list - though there are many to-do list available but I loved maintaining my own to do list that opens up automatically every morning on my screen the moment I start my laptop.

5. Using Excel for presentations - Creating certain charts based on financial data and linking those to the powerpoint presentation have really saved a lot of time and effort. And has earned me accolades too.

6. Personal Financial planning - The excel has been boon in doing not only official stuff but in cases of personal financial planning too. I've managed to prepared a personal long term financial plan for myself in a spreadsheet and it has become a lot easier for me to know how much can I save, say 8 months down the line after taking into all anticipated expenses. Another example of how much fund will I have post my retirement (in Present Value Terms) and whether it will be sufficient to cover my expenses at that point of time. Trust me, this is working really great for me.

7. These are only some of the instances that I could immediately think of. There are many other instances where I'm using Excel consciously or unconsciously e,g preparing of guestlists, finalising any plan with timelines etc. 

Excel is certainly taken out a lot of pain which otherwise we CA and accountants would have had to deal with on a daily basis. 

Regards

Excel is a part of my daily job. Number crunching, analysis, reporting all are done in excel. It has helped me in excelling in my job.
