Thanks for the feedback. I am one of the co-founders.

To respond to these points: - Enterprise software seems to be moving increasingly towards a subscription pricing mode. (eg Office 365). Additionally, this is software that will be used on a regular (daily, at least weekly) basis, and when you calculate the potential time-savings, pays for itself quickly, - Thanks for the UI tip. We are working really hard on improving the UI, esp as this is one of our main selling points! - We need to be clearer on benefits of cloud vs addin. One of our big learning points recently has been that users seem to favour the addin over the cloud. - Sorry about this. - From speaking to our target users (mainly analysts in the financial industry), there are two things that repeatedly come out: error handling and understanding exactly how complex spreadsheets works. We have found interest has been about 50:50 for both - This is a fair point! We will include some sample data and show the Slate view with it.
