Tough competition - Xcellery remains unique
Today Google test launched a new service called Google Spreadsheets. As usual Google does a great job with anything they release. What does Google's launch mean for Xcellery? Although Google may take away the breath of many online spreadsheet providers - Xcellery still remains unique. Xcellery's believe is not to replace Excel but extend it. That' s why we have our primary focus on building online capability into the Excel itself. We also provide the browser editor but more as an alternative to review and publish your spreadsheets online. We will stay on course and keep on improving Xcellery, the best online spreadsheet in the market.

AMEN! to this philosophy. I set up something in google and, while it is pretty damn cool, it just feels weird not being able to work in EXCEL. I do love the chat ability with collaborators in Google.
I just found your project/venture yesterday and was trying it out so I'm not fully clear on a lot of the features, how the collaborators can work - such as if they edit in Excel or even if they can - I sent myself an invite to another email address to try and test it but haven't had a chance yet so I may have questions. :)
Look forward to learning more and seeing how the vision develops. Thank you.

Hi Robin,
Thanks for your comment. I hope you found a moment and tried out Xcellery. Let me know what you think. You can directly contact me @ rlaemmler@collaborall.com

Hi,
Your service looks to be what we're looking for in a solution. Can you please explain how you're different from Smartsheet and irows?
Thanks.
iRows is conceptionally similar to Xcellery. Both are online spreadsheets but the big difference is that Xcellery provides the collaboration features directly from Excel. With iRows you are forced to work with a browser editor but you can import/export to Excel.
With Xcellery you can always work with Excel and changes from your collaborators automatically get updated in your Excel file.
Xcellery also has a browser editor
in case some of your collaborators doesn't have Excel installed.
The other big difference is that iRows shuts down at the end of this year. Xcellery stays on track and we want to provide the world the best Online Excel.
SmartSheet looks more like a task tracking tool. It wouldn't support formulas and cell formatting like you can do in Excel. With Xcellery you have all the power of Excel and at the same time the collaboration functionality.
Xcellery will always have a free version. SmartSheet doesn't provide a free account.
Hope that could clarify things and we hope to see you as a future customer of our service!
