Lotus 1-2-3 was one of the first programs to combine the abilities of a word processor, spreadsheet, and database management. It completely changed how businesses and individuals managed their data and calculations, paving the way for modern spreadsheet software.
Lotus 1-2-3 set the standard for spreadsheet software and inspired other companies to create similar programs. Its interface and features became the basis for Excel and other popular spreadsheet programs used today. Without Lotus 1-2-3, our technological landscape may look very different.
Before Lotus 1-2-3, creating spreadsheets involved long hours of manual calculations and formatting. Lotus made it easier and more efficient to organize and manipulate large amounts of data, saving users time and effort. It helped make data analysis more accessible to everyone, not just financial experts.
