Coinpath vs. the spreadsheet you already have
Spreadsheets are honest but expensive in time. Here is where they still win, and where Coinpath quietly takes over.
A spreadsheet is the most flexible budgeting tool ever built and the easiest one to abandon in March. The problem is never the formulas — it is the manual entry that has to happen every week forever.
What the spreadsheet still wins
One-off modeling. If you are pricing a mortgage scenario or a business idea, a blank grid beats any product.
What breaks down
Categorization, recurring detection, multi-account net worth, and sharing with a partner. Each is a maintenance job in a spreadsheet and automatic in Coinpath.
Bring your history with you
Import your sheet as CSV. Categories are matched on import, so years of history keep working inside the new trends and reports rather than starting over at zero.
Keep both if you want
Full exports in open formats mean the spreadsheet is always one download away. Nothing in Coinpath is a one-way door.
