OrcaSheets

OrcaSheets works like magic on my Mac. Having recently moved into the health tech domain, my data analytics needs changed dramatically from the cybersecurity world. In cybersecurity, I had access to expensive cloud-based analytics tools—in fact, I was developing the big data analytics pipelines and tooling myself. But moving to health tech changed the nature of the data I handle dramatically. The sensitivity and privacy requirements were dialed up a few notches, and I could not rely on tools sitting outside my laptop since that would require moving data off my machine. Strict data governance requirements meant month-long approval cycles and tool audits. OrcaSheets brought the entire flexibility and power of cloud analytics tools right to my laptop at a penny-to-the-dollar cost. I didn’t feel for a second that I needed any other tool for the kind of analytics I do in the payer-provider domain of health tech.

While the concept is great, as other users have mentioned the UI is not configurable enough. when i’m on a 43in widescreen UHD monitor - more than half the UI is taken up by locked sidebars and bottom drawers. If data is the priority, why aren’t we given the ability to SEE all of the DATA?

Looks good, Doesnt allow resizing of app even on large screens so cannot enlarge to maximise the real estate on the screen
