Log in to Excel NOT required if opening from excel online
When you open Excel Online you have limited functionalities, g.e. copy and pasting with format or as a picture, so you need to open it in Excel THAT requires you to Log In to Excel in the computer AGAIN which is very easy to forget to sign out, specially when you work on the rush.
And very problematic when you are using it from a Public or Shared Computer, which at the end it the real problem, since sharing and collaborating CAN be DONE with a normal Excel with ALL the functionalities, the benefit of Excel Online is to access…

Change confusing error message (corrupt file or file format not supported)
Issue:
One of the operational Excel workbooks cannot be opened in Excel Online, on the opening attempt the following error message is received:
“
We’re sorry, we couldn’t open you’re your workbook. It’s possibly corrupt or using a file format that’s not supported.
Do you want to try and open this file in Excel.However when the file is opened and inspected in the Excel reach client no corruption is detected.
The file contains External Links that are not supported (i.e. cannot be resolved) in Excel Online. After removing the "unresolvable" links, the file can perfectly be opened in Excel…2 votes -
Opening files on OneDrive, give choice of on-line or local app instead of always on-line.
When opening files on OneDrive, give the user the choice of using on-line or local app instead of always on-line. I waste significant time trying switch over from on-line Excel to full Excel and this is very annoying.

Needs to have better version control for when someone is working in excel, and posts to the online version.
Needs to be reliable on version control, otherwise google sheets is superior.

Ability to Download File when it exceeds the file size limit.
I hope there is an option to view the folder and download it if it cannot be opened because of the file size.

Sharepoint File Ownership
As the owner of the file that is protected there are times I need to edit the document however folks have it opened in sharepoint and walk away. I'd like the ability as the owner to kick them out so that edits can be made. When they return they can re-open the updated document.

unsupported features in Office 365
If there are unsupported features when opening an Excel workbook for edit in Office 365, then please inform me what these features are and where to find these in the workbook, instead of 'To edit this in your browser, we will create a copy that doesn't include unsupported features.'
For instance I get specific information when saving an Office 97 version after editing in Office 2013.
This helps me to decide what to do: accept (e.g. is only a presentation issue) or somehow make it impossible to edit via Online (e.g. VBA code will get crippled).3 votes -
Let me open shared file in local Excel 2016
Trying to open a shared file with Workbook Sharing activated - can't open because Workbook Sharing isn't supported in Excel online. Give me an option to open in local Excel 2016 license, or to sync the file to my local drive so I can open in local Excel license.

Change the error message top phrase when a user clicks on an Excel file check out by someone else
Change the top phrase of the error message when a user clicks on an Excel file check out by someone else.
Currently phrase - SOMEONE ELSE HAS THIS WORKBOOK LOCKED.
Suggested phrase - THIS FILE IS CHECKED OUT BY (ADD USERNAME HERE)
Why? IMHO this is a better description of what actually is going on.5 votes
