I have been using ASAP Utilities for several years now and am a huge fan of the tool. It's very reasonably priced, simple to use, and extremely useful. It also has quite a lot of features! If you do a lot of data cleanup/normalization using Excel, it is a must-have tool. Would strongly recommend to anyone that works frequently with Excel and wants to save themselves a lot of time!

There was a slight problem receiving my licence details but Bastien resolved the issue within a few minutes of contacting the Suport team. Great customer service.
These utilities are a huge time saver and worth every penny.

I am a Scheduler utilizing Primavera P6 and when importing data back into the software you need to make sure any numerical value is in a text format. Construction schedules have thousands of lines of data and excel can be cumbersome to get the proper format. ASAP fixed that issue for me without developing some macro in order to accomplish this task. Great product and very affordable.

Countless tools you always wished for and many more you haven't thought of yet. It is really about being empowered and fluid in your daily work and ASAP Utilities has done exactly this for me. As such, it has quickly become an indispensable tool for data cleanup, mass changes, evaluation and so much more. It is a rare day indeed where my big data doesn't get tamed by the seductive ease of this wonderful tool.

ASAP stopped working and has been incredibly difficult to work with our IT team to get it working again. Not a great interface with Microsoft security, need to get it accepted by Microsoft and included in their AP store so Add-in works seemlessly.

Reply from ASAP Utilities
Hello Leslie,
Don't worry, we're here to assist you with this issue.
Is your organization currently using the professional edition of Windows Defender?
The peculiar error you're encountering may unfortunately be a result of a specific setting, known as an ASR rule, in either Microsoft Defender for Endpoint or Microsoft 365 Defender. This can block standard Windows functionality and cause interference when Excel tries to open the ASAP Utilities file.
Please understand that this isn't a fault within our software, our files are accurate. Regrettably, there's nothing we can do on our end to resolve this problem.
Ideally, we'd like Excel to inform you directly if the file is being blocked by other Microsoft software. However, it instead displays the rather vague error message "file format or file extension is not valid". We hope that Microsoft will make this error message more insightful in the future.
For more details on this issue and instructions on how you, or your IT department, can solve it, please refer to the following article:
# How to solve the cryptic error "...file format or file extension is not valid..." caused by Window Defender if "Block Win32 API calls from Office macros" rule is set.

This product is excellent and very beneficial. It's my go to when I want to complete an operation using the features of Excel since they have already in most cases have the answer. And there are so many features that I probably don't even use yet.

The website is easy to use and the product is very powerful and helpful with learning tips, tricks, and hot keys. The customer service is also second to none. On a recent order I made a mistake and recorded my email incorrectly. I flagged this to them and over night (on a weekend no less) they had fixed the order and gotten me my receipt and license keys!

The current version (I've been using it for 20 years) is better integrated than some of the earlier ones and contains enough features to keep anyone happy.
On the down-side, some of the key functions I use aren't on any of the menus and thus have to searched for although I'm gradually saving them as favourites.

I originally found ASAP Utilities in 2012 or 2013 when I was performing so many data manipulation tasks daily while creating a new report for a job. After the 90 day trial, and also trying a few other add-ins, I found ASAP to be the most comprehensive as well as the most intuitive. I purchased the license and used it for over 7 years of updates. About a year ago, I could have kept using the older version, but I found it was worth it to buy another license. The purchase experience is easy and the amount of time I save is astonishing.

I have been using ASAP Utilities for 15 years in my professional environment. I have suggested it to two employers in that time frame and both ended up purchasing multiple licenses! This utility is an incredible time saver and just plain old neat add in to use! It has so many features from spelling out numbers to detect and visualize color every other row!

ASAP Utilities is a really affordable tool to make life a little easier without having to be an Excel wizard. The lifetime license is amazing for the price. I've used it at every place of employment for about five years now.

I've been using ASAP Utilities for almost 20 years now. When I switch computers, it's one of the first programs to get installed on my new machine. It has so many helpful tools for Excel, once you get used to them, you'll wonder why they aren't baked into the app by Microsoft. Worth every penny!

I've been using ASAP utilities for almost 10 years. I've purchased it at every job / position I've ever had. It's a MUST have if you work in excel all day and you want to speed up repetitive operations without having to write formulas over and over again.

I absolutely love ASAP Utilities. I've been using the Excel Add-in for many years now. I work with very large Excel workbooks on a daily basis and rely on ASAP Utilities to help me get the data into usable formats with only the data I need. It is such a huge time saver. I honestly, can't imagine being without it now.

Great customer service and my team and I LOVE this tool! When I had issues getting the latest license keys, Bastien himself called me from Norway to help me figure out that my company was blocking the emails because it was out of the states. He sent the licenses to my personal address to bypass this and I really appreciated the personal attention to resolve this!! ASAP add-on is the most robust tool for Excel and has added so many great "tools" to my team's toolkit!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS!!

We have had a license for years and it has saved us countless hours of file manipulation and macro research. I recently got a new computer and needed to reinstall and update. Updating the subscription was an easy and painless process, and well worth it.

ASAP fills the gap in between powerful data analytics and the "normal" Excel365.
And there are regular update and you can give input, ask questions and get an answer.
