Spreadsheets vs Web-Applications using Online Database
Enhanced Security
Human Resources Department can have access to Salary Info of Employees.
Other Departments can have access to info about Employees other than Salary.
There are many chances of manual errors while using spreadsheets and
can result into duplicate records, incorrect financial calculations etc.
There are many versions of the same spreadsheet which are mailed back and forth
and it is difficult to keep track of it. Web Application provides central location
for all the data which is available anywhere, anytime.
Working in a team environment it is possible to email wrong version or miss
sending attachment to team member. Web application provides the latest
data for all team members so there is no confusion.
Spreadsheet can not be used to store sensitive information like social security number
etc. because it is stored in plain text. Web Application can store data
encrypted and can provide access to decrypted data only to authorized team members.
Team members who should not have access to decrypted information can
only see encrypted text or in the best case no access is there of encrypted info.
