What sort of workflows are you creating that end up being better served with emails + Excel?
Most of the time, I see _more_ issues when teams over rely on Excel files. Data inconsistencies abound, audit trails are nearly impossible, and security access is difficult to manage. The end goal for most processes is to limit the amount of human touch-points... not increase it.
