    What Plugin should I buy? ASAP or Kutools...or both?

    I am having a hard time trying to understand which one of these would be more advantageous. Both their websites are terrible and I can't really compare them both very easily. If only I had a feature list spreadsheet for both I could compare

    Can anyone provide their recommendations on which of these would provide the most value? I would be providing this to my whole team - so it would range from basic users to advanced users. None of us are experts.
    The option of training everyone on advanced excel is not within budget, everyone is at different stages in life and interest in learning, and we believe having one or two of our advanced users help teach people how to get the most of out easy-to-use plugins will provide us with a well balanced return on the investment.

    If you don't think either of these tools would be of any benefit to this specific scenario, I'd be really interested to know why

    From my point of view both are not required if you know how to do it

    I can only second sixthsense's opinion.

    I can live without them as long as I use Excel.

    Unfortunately our team consists of a number of people in different stages of life who show no interest in learning advanced excel. Using some smart plugins will be a good bridge between them using excel at it's most basic level and using it in a more productive way.

    If you have an opinion on why using these tools would not be productive / add value to the team I'd be really interested in hearing it

    Alternatively if you have another suggestion on how to train 15 people on how to get more out of excel (also worth noting that budget constraints wouldn't allow us to send them all on a course), I think that would be of value, too.

    If they show no interest in learning Excel why would they be interested in mastering ASAP ?

    I'd use Cool tools for 10 years and couldn't do my job without it. Not having the right formulas saves me at least 2 hours a day and prevents a lot of mistakes.
