If you have text-based data in your spreadsheet and want to turn it into clear tables, this app is for you.

XLSurveySlicer

by Maxi Research

There hasn’t really been a simple way to work with text data in spreadsheets — a tool almost everyone uses every day.

Now there’s an app that can turn text-based spreadsheet data into tables instantly — surveys, categories, tags, and more.

A Google Sheets™ add-on.

Freemium.

XLSurveySlicer Lite is a Google Sheets™ add-on that turns Google Forms™ survey data into clear tables and insights in minutes.

It automatically summarizes responses—including checkbox-type questions, which store multiple answers in a single cell separated by commas, making them difficult to count and analyze manually. XLSurveySlicer Lite handles that instantly, turning checkbox data that can’t be processed by standard spreadsheet formulas into data ready for table generation.

You can also use XLSurveySlicer Lite with survey data from other tools. Just make sure your data is formatted like Google Forms™ responses in Google Sheets™—a simple format where each row represents data from a respondent, and each column represents an answer to a question.

And it’s not limited to surveys. XLSurveySlicer Lite works with any text-based spreadsheet data—product categories, feedback tags, status labels, and more—making it useful for a wide range of analysis tasks beyond traditional surveys.

XLSurveySlicer Lite can generally handle datasets up to 10,000 rows, depending on the number of columns in the data.

Built for students, researchers, office administrators, and consultants, XLSurveySlicer Lite delivers fast, reliable results that make understanding your data effortless. With just a few clicks, you can go from raw text data in spreadsheets to tables, ready for charts, reports, or internal documents.
