Spreadsheets are great until they are not.
They hide business logic in cells, break when two people edit at once, and become tacit knowledge instead of company infrastructure.
Migrating to a real business system starts with humility: map the actual process, not the idealized one. Then model data ownership, roles, and automations that remove handoffs instead of adding dashboards.
The goal is not to digitize chaos. It is to create a single source of truth people actually use.
