Are you tired of spending hours manually cleaning and analysing data in Excel? Do you wish you could unlock the hidden insights within your spreadsheets without becoming a data expert? Copilot is the answer. This AI-powered assistant makes it simple to understand and clean data in Excel, freeing up your valuable time and resources for more strategic tasks.
Copilot is like having a data analyst built into Excel. Using artificial intelligence, Copilot interprets your questions in plain English. You won’t need complex formulas or programming knowledge. Simply ask questions about your data as you would a colleague, and Copilot provides the answers.
Copilot sifts through large datasets to uncover hidden trends and correlations. Imagine instantly discerning your top-selling products, identifying high-potential customer segments, or spotting anomalies, all without writing a single line of code.
Copilot transforms raw data into clear summaries and visually appealing charts and graphs. Communicate your findings to stakeholders and team members, regardless of their data expertise.
Copilot provides insights based on your specific questions and requirements. Get the information you need, in the format you need it, to make data-driven decisions.
Copilot is a tireless assistant that handles tedious work so your team can spend less time on data preparation and more on strategic analysis and decision-making. This aligns with Essential Tech's focus on creating modern workplaces where technology enhances human capabilities.
This shift in focus leads to faster insights and agile decision-making. With Copilot handling the data work, your team can quickly generate reports, explore scenarios, and respond to market changes.
Copilot also encourages collaboration. By providing a shared platform for data analysis, your team can work together to uncover insights and share findings. This collaborative approach leads to a better understanding of your data and better decision-making.
First, have Microsoft 365 and Excel installed. This duo provides the foundation for Copilot's functionality. Next, make sure your Excel files are stored in the cloud, either on OneDrive or SharePoint. This allows Copilot to access and analyse your data.
Once you meet these requirements, activating Copilot is simple. Select the data you want to analyse in your Excel spreadsheet and click the Copilot button on the ribbon. Copilot is ready to answer your questions and provide insights.
To get the most out of Copilot, think about how you would phrase a question to a colleague. Be specific and clear in your queries. For example, instead of asking "What are my sales trends?", try "Show me a line graph of sales by month for the last year." The more specific your questions, the more precise and helpful Copilot's responses.
Don't be afraid to experiment. Copilot is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly. Explore its features and how it can integrate with your existing data analysis processes.
