About EASA

EASA is the leading software tool for those businesses currently using highly developed and complex Excel spreadsheets, including those with macros/VBA, for critical functions but are being hindered by the common limitations such as poor data and IP protection, version confusion, unreliable portability and inability to leverage data because it is spread out across the enterprise. EASA eliminates these issues while also providing you the ability to make powerful enhancements to your spreadsheet application including: - incorporating full relational database functionality with central storing of all spreadsheet data, - workflow management such as approvals and e-signatures, - integration with, and in some cases into other systems such as CRM, ERP and corporate databas...

EASA CPQ and Beyond

While I am not a programmer by any sense of the word, EASA makes it so easy to build and update web applications. We have used EASA for almost three years, we have just started to scratch the surface with integrating it into different divisions and processes. I believe we will continue and expand.

PROS

The ease of learning to build the "EASAPS" is what I like and what I was most surprised about. While there are some complicated areas that come from wanting to do certain actions, building a basic app that will take inputs and store them was very easy after a couple of training sessions.

CONS

While the use case for us is designing internal applications to make our processes more efficient, EASA could use some visual modernization.

Reason for choosing EASA

We thought being able to build a CPQ app from scratch was the most beneficial for our team.

Overall, EASA has enabled our organization to convert many of our Excel tools (and other types of tools as well) to EASA apps. We are happy with EASA software and with EASA's support as a company.

PROS

It is very straightforward to create EASA apps when starting with a well-formatted Excel calculator. These sorts of Excel calculators are heavily used in our enterprise, but they are not very well curated. This is EASA's sweet spot and it has served us well. Additionally, we receive very good support from EASA when it is needed. In the course of about 4-5 years we have been able to effectively deploy 30+ EASA apps across our enterprise.

CONS

Some Excel formatting does not port well to EASA apps. This can be considered a nuisance-type issue, not a major roadblock. The EASA team is working to resolve some of these issues in future releases. EASA license costs are a deterrent to adoption. Users often use Excel license cost (which appears to the user to be essentially free within our enterprise) as the baseline when comparing to EASA. A fair amount of "value selling" of EASA benefits is required to overcome this hurdle.

Reason for choosing EASA

We chose EASA because it suited our use case better than any other alternatives.

A Web Application Based on Excel

I would first like to mention the stars above may not directly line up with our experience. We had an initial excel application we wanted to get online for people within our company, clients and potential clients to use. To have a web developer build something like this from scratch would have been very expensive. We had a smaller budget and were looking for something we could have built for us and then have taken over the reigns to modify it without a ton of ongoing expenses or having to reach out to the developer to make every little change. With a combination of the EASA team building the web app through their platform and a colleague learning the ins-and-outs of coding and how their framework works, we were able to successfully complete our project and make most changes in-house.

PROS

We had a lot of issues internally with the project manager and the person building our version in excel leaving. We ended up meandering for quite a while with an unfinished project and eventually we were able to hire someone to help get it finished. This project unfortunately took several years to complete but we are now happy with the final product. They were as patient as can be an worked with us to help navigate the internal issues we were facing. Overall for what we wanted to accomplish I believe we got good value out of this project.

CONS

I think one of the other reviewers mentioned something fair which is the platform isn't set up to handle something as dynamic like adapting to screen size. We had to set a px size for the application independent of the size of the screen users used. The event handling also came up with our internal programmer. The browser and the excel file don't always synchronize responsively so extra workarounds had to be made and troubleshooting on how to successfully do them.

Reason for choosing EASA

Overall Costs were going to be just too high and there weren't a lot of other options in our mind.

Hiding your Excel "application" behind a front end? What a terrible idea

I have to use it because my employer adopted it. I am not sure whether the platform it runs on has been properly sized but, whatever the reason, the resulting "web application" it is a nightmare to work with.

PROS

It seems that the software is a pleasure for management, because it makes them think they have solved the Excel "application" shadow IT problem

CONS

Hiding Excel behind a front end to make it look like a web app is a TERRIBLE idea. It comes with all the problems of maintaining business logic within Excel and is also painfully slow, what could take seconds to do in Excel takes more than 10 minutes to execute behind EASA, while also removing any portability. So unless you only have only very basic business logic in your Excel (in which case I guess you'd be better off transferring it to Sharepoint), you're up for huge performance problems. And you also do nothing to make your application more maintainable, because you're still stuck with all the drawbacks of developing within Excel.

EASA Review

Great!, Customer support is excellent, any issues are addressed in a timely and professional manner .

PROS

EASA allows non-expert I.T. to leverage existing complex excel worksheets and models that contain Macros and create a web application that works the same as it did on a desktop for minimal cost and time. Also they Host your platform which frees up my time.

CONS

Being able to handle dynamic content is a little lacking

Reason for choosing EASA

EASA offered more flexibility, options and integration capabilities. Allowed the use of existing excel models and Macros, others you need to rebuild the logic from the ground up.
