webtesting.io is cloud-friendly, and is one the first automated testing solutions to fully integrate Microsoft Excel with the power of cloud. QA teams may share their Excel-based test data in real-time automatically. http://www.webtesting.io

Tried those. Still not as fast, with data amount limitations. Talking about desktop Excel integrated with cloud capabilities. Thoughts?

The link is just some videos showing using excel to access urls and produce output in cells.

I'm not real sure how "cloud" fits in.

Yes, the video shows the test execution part, and not a clear understanding of the cloud integration. Sorry for the confusion. That said, the cloud comes into play when the automated tests are ran successfully, and the results are sent to a Web server to capture, and share the test results with the team. The test summaries are also updated and shared with other team members. I hope this helps. New videos will do a better job with highlighting the cloud integration.

The headline implies a "cloud" based spreadsheet.

Good point, and brings up an interesting question. How does one properly articulate "Desktop Microsoft Excel with integrated online data storage?"
