Question

What spreadsheet software to get?

Just acquired laptop with OS 10.10.2 and need spreadsheet software. Who's happy with theirs and what is it? The Numbers program included with the OS seems to have been designed rather poorly.

It's actually very good when you get into it and it does, of course, export to and import from Excel

Further experimenting shows Numbers to be more capable than I first thought.
