WardaOS vs Excel: when does it make sense to switch?
If you're tracking 50+ products or 50+ sales/month, WardaOS pays for itself in time saved alone.
| Feature | Excel | WardaOS |
|---|---|---|
| Setup time | Hours of tabs and formulas | Five-minute CSV import |
| Profit calculation | Manual and easy to break | Per-item profit with fees |
| Stock tracking | Formula gymnastics | Built in |
| Multi-platform | More tabs, more chaos | One dashboard |
| Photo storage | Files everywhere | Receipts and product photos |
| Recurring expenses | Calendar reminders | Tracked in expenses |
| Tax exports | DIY cleanup | Tax-ready CSV exports |
| Mobile usable | Technically, but ouch | Designed for quick checks |
| Crashes with 1000 rows | Sometimes | Tested with 10,000+ rows |
| Search & filter | Depends on your sheet | Product and sales filters |
| Sharable with accountant | Usually a messy file | Clean export |
| Duplicate detection | Manual eyeballing | Import duplicate checks |
When sellers switch
The sheet has 12 tabs and nobody remembers which one is the real one.
A product sells on eBay and Vinted, but stock only gets updated in one place.
Tax season arrives and the accountant gets a file named final-final-v7.xlsx.
Pricing reframe
EUR 7/month is the cost of one bad coffee a week. Your spreadsheet probably costs you EUR 100/month in missed insights, mystery fees, and "where did that order go?" moments.
