Apple Numbers

Description

Apple Numbers is an OS X app used to organize, analyze, and visualize data in spreadsheets. It is one of Apple's three productivity apps, along with Pages and Keynote, and is available for iOS and iCloud.

Numbers supports over 250 functions and comes with a variety of tools for organizing and visualizing your data. You can insert shapes, media, tables and charts as well as edit graphics. And while the application uses the proprietary .NUMBERS format for saving spreadsheets, the software also supports the Office Open XML .XLSX format.

Numbers allows you create spreadsheets similar to Excel but gives you more freedom to create visually appealing layouts. You can change the fonts and styles of cell borders, as well as add, remove, and modify table styles. Numbers comes with over 30 pre-built templates that will save you the time and effort of creating your own spreadsheet themes.

Numbers is an OS X application that's designed for users who are looking for an alternative for Excel for Mac. It supports more than 250 functions, and allows you to customize the layout of your spreadsheets. However, the app fails to supply the same amount of power as its Microsoft competitor, producing satisfactory results when working with spreadsheets. Therefore, if you can afford the cost, stay with Excel.
