Retool can do quite a few things excel can't:

- Allow significant/good multi-user access

- Change control

- Less fragility

- Allow editing large datasets (e.g. stored in Postgres) in a controlled way

- UI elements without diving into VBA code (once you are in VBA then anything is fair game obviously)

- Easily connect to external API's and integrate with other internal systems (again without VBA)

Assume other low/no code tools are similar.
