Check your Excel corpus first.
Drop a workbook. SumOffice tells you what works, what doesn't, and what it depends on — then opens it, runs it, saves it back, and Excel opens the result. Four steps, all measured, before you switch anything.
- Drop the workbook — here, or send it to the Check bot in Slack or Telegram; nothing in it is run; deleted after 24 hours.
- Read the report — every macro with its route, every function known or unknown, every data source, as “N of M”.
- Open it and run — the “Open it” button: the same workbook in SumSheet on our server, formulas recalculating, nothing installed.
- Save, open in Excel — the file comes back with its VBA byte for byte; inside your own Nextcloud in three steps.
Excel says the file is corrupted? The same door reads damaged packages too: which rows are broken, and a repaired copy with every intact row.
What you get, in seconds
| Verdict | One of the four words our Compatibility Center uses about a workbook's macros:

|
|---|---|
| Formulas | How many, how many distinct functions, and how many of them the engine knows by name — with the unknown ones listed. Nested forms are checked by opening the workbook; the “Open it” button is that test. |
| Data logic | PivotTables, Power Query, external links, connections, charts, tables. |
| Macros | How many macros Excel would offer you, how many of them route native, every entry point with its route, what blocks the rest (events, external automation, COM components, UserForms, libraries). |
| Open it | The same workbook opened in SumOffice, in your browser, on our server — the real engine, the real file. |
Every number says what it counts
Percentages are written as “N of M”, never alone. A route describes what we cover today, not a promise that a macro behaves as in Microsoft Excel; only a recorded run against Excel says that. Missing evidence is not proof of absence: a file we could not read is reported as unreadable, not as “no macros”.
What happens to your file
- It is stored on one server, read three times (package structure, formula names, VBA source), and deleted after 24 hours or sooner.
- Nothing in it is executed — no macro, no query, no external connection.
- It is not copied to storage, analytics or third parties. If you leave an address, we write to you about this file and nothing else.
- Your original is never modified. Open the same workbook in the SumSheet app, run your macros and queries, save — and open the result back in Excel. Check it yourself: nothing about your setup has to change first.
Regular work with your workbooks — editing, saving back, macros running — is the SumSheet app (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS) and the SumSheet view-SDK for your own products; see Capabilities and Developers.
