What can you use the app for?
Zoho Sheet provides internet users with an easier way to create, edit and manage their spreadsheets over the internet. Zoho Sheet can be used for anything, from professional data storage and organization to planning a trip or other personal endeavor. The application allows users to create a new spreadsheet or access and edit existing ones without installing any software. Rather than attaching a cumbersome spreadsheet to an email, the user can instead share the document through Zoho by setting it to public view. Users can give permission to other users to work on a spreadsheet simultaneously. Users can also copy and paste from Excel or import an Excel spreadsheet to Zoho. The application also includes advanced features like pivot tables and VBA macros. Users can sync their spreadsheets with remote data from the internet as well. The Zoho Sheet API is available for developers.
