The first thing you’ll see when you open Excel 2013 is a brand new look. It’s cleaner, but it’s also 
designed to help you get professional-looking results quickly. You’ll find many new features 
that let you get away from walls of numbers and draw more persuasive pictures of your data, 
guiding you to better, more informed decisions

Flash Fill. Easily reformat and rearrange your data to gain new insight. Excel learns and recognizes 
your pattern and auto-completes the remaining data for you. No formulas or macros required.

Recommended Pivot Table. Perform complex analyses quickly. Excel summarizes your data with previews of 
various pivot-table options, so you can compare them and select the option that tells your story best.

Recommended Charts. Let Excel recommend the charts that best illustrate your data`s patterns. 
Quickly preview your chart and graph options, and then pick the ones that present your insights most clearly.

Quick Analysis. Discover and compare different ways to represent your data visually. When you see the one 
that shows off your data best, apply formatting, sparklines, charts, and tables with a single click.

Chart Formatting Control. Imagine the freedom to fine-tune the look and feel of your charts quickly. Change 
the title, layout, and other chart elements-all from a new and more interactive formatting interface.

Simplified Sharing. Share workbooks with ease and confidence. You can be sure that you`re all tracking 
only the latest version, because your presentations are saved online on SkyDrive or SharePoint by default. 
Just send everyone a link to the same file.

Post to Social Network. Get a lot of feedback fast. Share selected portions of your spreadsheets on the web 
by posting them on your social network pages.

Present Online. Collaborate on workbooks with others in real time by sharing your screen in Lync conversations 
or meetings. When you present online, you can also allow others to take control of your workbook.
