The finance department in a previous job rather undramatically moved over to Google Sheets from Excel after seeing the befits of the collaboration/online environment.

They got some help by me for moving out the heavy stuff to SQL/BigQuery but that was also for the better. BigQuery and Sheets integrate very well these days so they could even use a Google sheet as a UI for the queries. Rows and columns, much better than any other web UI.

I think Google Sheets is nearly miraculous, with all that it can do as a web app, but it's amazing to me that anybody actually seriously using Excel in a professional capacity could migrate to it. They're not in the same weight class.
