Embrace Spreadsheets Instead of Fighting Them

No-Code Configuration turns Spreadsheets into an Opportunity

SciCord provides a platform for an entire research and development organization. Utilize your existing spreadsheets and import existing data for a seamless transition.

The Challenges for Eliminating Spreadsheets

Spreadsheets are a pervasive presence within most organizations, often housing vital information even after the implementation of applications like LIMS and ELN. Spreadsheet flexibility, functionality, and compatibility with scientific data and processes make them a natural choice for scientists.

The Impact of Continuing to Use Spreadsheets

Without proper control and management, spreadsheets can lead to compliance issues and impede effective data visualization/analysis. Ultimately spreadsheets can negatively impact decision-making processes within an organization.
