Pressbox (Press Release) -

December 29, 2022: Visit any business on the main street, and you will see the owners and managers using a spreadsheet in some way or fashion. This technology has become synonymous with modern computing and is versatile enough for all use cases. Now you can bring that powerful addition to your project's end users with the simple addition of IronSoftware's Spire XLS alternative.


This enhancement doesn't require the massive upfront costs from Microsoft Excel or Excel Interop. That saves your stakeholders valuable financial resources and time for your team from having to retrofit or fix the bugs commonly found in open-source solutions. With this Spire XLS C# alternative, you still get all the formatting your end users are used to but none of the forced switchings between multiple apps, as everything can be completed inside your project's native environment.


The Spire XLS alternative allows for the rapid importation of source files based on .xls, .xlsx, .csv, .tsv, and more. That is a massive benefit, considering how many businesses rely on remote teams or inter-office communication that often involves numerous file types. The Spire XLS alternative includes working with spreadsheets using System.Data.DataSet and System.Data.DataTable objects, meaning you get all the similar range of settings and features your target market likely knows from experiencing Excel. 


This Spire XLS alternative fully supports .NET 5/6, Core, Standard, Framework, and Azure. It includes integrating all the same patterns, colors, formulas, numbers, text, and cell styling you would expect from a spreadsheet utility. You can see more of the features and integrations by visiting https://ironsoftware.com/csharp/excel/blog/compare-to-other-components/spire-xls-alternative-csharp-excel-library.


As this tool is 100% free while you are in the development phase of your project build, this is a valuable addition to your arsenal of features in your project build. You'll only need to make a payment once you hit deployment. Download the project today at https://www.nuget.org/packages/IronXL.Excel to get started.
