Why services suck at spreadsheets — Register Dynamics - data focused technology consultancy based in the UK
We've seen the challenges that pop up when relying on spreadsheet templates
and the resulting frustration from users when they are forced to grapple
with submitting their data using one.
We've come to a worrying conclusion: asking users to fill out spreadsheet
templates in the way we do it today does not meet user needs and should not
be used as a design pattern in usable and accessible government services.
