The Limitations of Furniture Lists in Excel

Lack of Dynamism

Excel does not automatically update product information. Every change (prices, availability, images) must be entered manually, which increases error risks and wastes significant time.

No Visual Customization

An Excel list remains a raw table, with no visual appeal. This makes it challenging to present your projects professionally to clients or partners.

Difficult to Share

Sharing an Excel list among multiple stakeholders often leads to issues: version conflicts, incompatible formats, or data loss during exchanges.

No Organization by Spaces

With Excel, structuring your lists by spaces (living room, bedroom, office) is tedious. This limits your ability to effectively organize your projects.
