New for Microsoft Office 2013
One of the most talked about features for Office 2013 are the built in apps allowing almost a seamless integration between office products and web applications. Although Microsoft already seems to have a robust list of features for Office 2013, they are still looking for developers to engineer more apps, which could make this version of office not just different in it’s GUI appearance but in overall functionality. I look forward to trying it out for myself when the beta is released.

New Microsoft Office 2013 Features information
I feel office 2013 is more of an update to aesthetics as opposed to functionality. The most noticable updates were the update to the GUI to match the upcoming windows 8 metro ui and bring excel into the cloud computing world by adding online storage. The most useful function i see is quick analysis which gives users a quick list of functions available using given information.

How I use Excel at work
I used excel to come up with cost estimates for computer builds that people ask me for. Kind of like Dell, except with more options. The parts, along with prices, and links to that particular part are provided so the customer knows exactly what he/she is getting. The list gets archived such that in case a replacement is needed in the future, i can look up exactly which part is was.

The New Office 2013 (-by William Cheng)
There are more than enough postings here to tell you about the good stuff with Microsoft Office 2013. But understanding the pitfalls with a product are just as important. Unbeknownst to most people Office 2013 will not be compatible with Windows XP or Vista; not that anyone cares for Vista. So if anyone is still running the XP Operating System, it’s about time to upgrade to Windows 7 or 8. You should also note that the new software will also require a computer with at least one gigabyte of RAM and a processor speed of at least a gigahertz. Sound like normal specs on a computer, but if your computer is more than 6 years old, it might not be compatible. Finally consumers should keep in mind that the touch features are optimized for Windows 8. Windows 7 user might want to also upgrade their OS to fully utilize the benefits of Office 2013.

Office 2013
Something new about Office 2013 is that it is going to be touch screen and cloud friendly. This is going to be really good for people who use tablets because it will now be a lot more convenient to use. The interface will be similar to Office 2010 and there will be a lot more features like pdf conversions and easier format editing on Excel.
Overall, I look forward to using the new Office 2013.

New features in Excel 2013
What’s New in Excel 2013
The first thing you’ll see when you open Excel is a brand new look. It’s cleaner, but it’s also designed to help you get professional-looking results quickly. You’ll find many new features that let you get away from walls of numbers and draw more persuasive pictures of your data, guiding you to better, more informed decisions.
Top features to explore
Get started quickly
Templates do most of the set-up and design work for you, so you can focus on your data. When you open Excel 2013, you’ll see templates for budgets, calendars, forms, and reports, and more.
Instant data analysis
The new Quick Analysis tool lets you convert your data into a chart or table in two steps or less. Preview your data with conditional formatting, sparklines, or charts, and make your choice stick in just one click. To use this new feature, see Analyze your data instantly.
Fill out an entire column of data in a flash
Flash Fill is like a data assistant that finishes your work for you. As soon as it detects what you want to do, Flash Fill enters the rest of your data in one fell swoop, following the pattern it recognizes in your data. To see when this feature comes in handy, see Split a column of data based on what you type.
Create the right chart for your data
With Chart recommendations, Excel recommends the most suitable charts for your data. Get a quick peek to see how your data looks in the different charts, and then simply pick the one that shows the insights you want to present. Give this feature a try when you create your first chart.
Filter table data by using slicers
First introduced in Excel 2010 as an interactive way to filter PivotTable data, slicers can now also filter data in Excel tables, query tables, and other data tables. Simpler to set up and use, slicers show the current filter so you’ll know exactly what data you’re looking at.
One workbook, one window
In Excel 2013 each workbook has in its own window, making it easier to work on two workbooks at once. It also makes life easier when you’re working on two monitors.
New Excel functions
You’ll find several new functions in the math and trigonometry, statistical, engineering, date and time, lookup and reference, logical, and text function categories. Also new are a few Web service functions for referencing existing Representational State Transfer (REST)-compliant Web services. Look for details in Excel functions (by category).
Save and share files online
Excel makes it easier to save your workbooks to your own online location, like your free SkyDrive or your organization’s Office 365 service. It’s also simpler to share your worksheets with other people. No matter what device they’re using or where they are, everyone works with the latest version of a worksheet— and you can even work together in real time. To learn more about it, see Save a workbook to another location or Save a workbook to the Web.
Embed worksheet data in a web page
To share part of your worksheet on the web, you can simply embed it on your web page. Other people can then work with the data in Excel Web App or open the embedded data in Excel.
Share an Excel worksheet in an online meeting
No matter where you are or what device you’re on—be it your smartphone, tablet, or PC—as long as you have Lync installed, you can connect to and share a workbook in an online meeting. To learn more about it, see Present a workbook online.
Save to a new file format
Now you can save to and open files in the new Strict Open XML Spreadsheet (*.xlsx) file format. This file format lets you read and write ISO8601 dates to resolve a leap year issue for the year 1900.
