    I have had every Surface Pro from 1 to 6 and love the device. However, don't kid yourself that Microsoft has any market share in the PC / Laptop market.

    Even if they did, it would make no difference commercially as Microsoft could just bundle discounted office or even free office with the Surface.

    Microsoft can still lose out commercially, that last comment is incorrect. Microsoft have a thriving business based upon portability in the surface pro tablets which use full blown windows 10 and excel full fat version with all compatibility. Microsoft would absolutely erode their tablet hardware market if they incorporated the full blown version on iPadOS. ODBC, etc., would be great but this topic is only referring to Pivot functionality which is in-app and functionality everyone has been asking for, for years.

    Would be good certainly for us an Excel based Business Intelligence Software house, but to get the real benefit of making Excel the same across all platforms, MS would need to support the underlying Windows specific database drivers behind Pivot Tables like OLE DB, ODBC and OLE DB for OLAP. No point having Pivot Table functionality as say Excel online, but can only slice and dice Excel data. You need the Pivot Table to talk to SQL and Azure databases and this is outside of Excel. Also would need to implement VBA and Macros, which MS is vehemently against. Most of Microsoft's revenue is from Office and Azure based services, so the comments on a "commercial reason" why they don't do it are simply not true. There is NO iPad version of Office as a stand alone entity, you get the iOS app as a result of purchasing full blown Office 365, so Microsoft can never lose commercially.

    Just imagine the commercial risk of making this functionality available when thinking about surface tablets versus iPads.... methinks there's commercial undertones here -noting at all to do with not being able to do it - probably more chance of Apple making it available by pushing new MacOs and iPadOS closer together along with Macs going non-intel

    Please for the love of all that’s holy, make office standardised across all platforms.

    If we can put a man on the moon, and build a Large Hadron Collider, surely the immense collective intelligence at Microsoft, have the capacity to make Microsoft Office the same across all platforms.

    I have purchased my ipad using emi in a thought that it can perform better than a pc. Now i can't even use ipad for my daily work because of lack of full fledged excel. More often we have to use pivot table in excel for our day to day task in our company. I am at the edge of selling it. Looking forward from Microsoft to provide an usable version of excel.

  • SJ Social commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Excel without Pivot Table is no excel at all. I use Windows PC at Office, Mac at Home and iPad when I am on the move; am also a Microsoft 365 Subscriber. Is there a good reason why this basic functionality that makes Excel ‘whole’ is not available on one of the most popular platforms? Request you to kindly undertake the development of this feature please. Thanks.
