This has been indispensable while doing a silly personal project that involved converting a lot of numbers to point totals. It has been very easy to use while easing my mind as as much as i enjoy trying to compute things in my head, this completely removed personal error.

Saves me hours upon hours and helps me build dashboards to reveal all sorts of insights at work. Would never be able to maintain them and adapt to changes without it.

I have always liked the time saving aspect of the add on but in the last year it has been hit or miss for accuracy. Seems as though once it was updated and it became a paid subscription, it started flaking out. I am not pleased with the accuracy for the price tag that has been assigned. I keyed in the exact info 30 times back to back and it would give me different responses each time. I searched my name on one sheet and 19 out of 30 times it popped up with No Matching Data Found. Not $30.00 odds when you have to manually do the job that often. I often times get error messages, it times out or locks up. I would love to see more accuracy and less glitchy for the price tag that it currently holds

Thank you very much for your feedback, Sandy.
I'm really sorry to hear you've encountered this difficulty.
We would appreciate a lot if you could contact our support team (support@ablebits.com) with the example of your data and the screenshot of the settings you select in the add-on. If you see any error messages again, please send us their screenshots as well. We'll investigate the issue and see what may be causing the problem.
Since we've never been reported of this before, for now I can only advise you to make sure you're not logged in to multiple accounts (the issue on the side of Google) and your Internet connection speed is fast and stable.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Not worth a subscription. I'll spend the hour it takes to make my own add-on for searching within formulas, thanks..

Absolute horseshit. This add-on would have been good, in fact it was. But they started forcing people to pay 30$ a year for it, which is absolutely insane. I would not recommend it at all.

the only reason it gets any stars is because it works. If it wasn't for getting a stupid popup EVERY TIME i search for something that i have to go close, i would give it 5 stars. i could tolerate the once every 10 searches or so, but every time is just ridiculous. this has spawned a new effort to search for a new way to perform my task so i can remove this.

This solved an issue for changing vast amounts of specifics strings in countif statements, however I can't justify paying for an add-on. After the trial it's getting deleted.
Edit: Found out Google Sheets does this natively. (Doh!) Add-on does what it was says, 5-stars for my stupidity.
