Use Microsoft Office online

The Microsoft Office browser version is very useful; Because it is free to use and can be used for tasks such as text processing, email, spreadsheets and presentations. This is the fastest and most efficient version of Excel on Ubuntu or other Linux distributions, and all you need is an Internet connection and a browser. Mozilla Firefox and Chromium are both ideal options for using Microsoft Office online.

Run Excel on Linux using a virtual machine

Virtual machine is one of the popular options for many users who have medium and advanced computers. Usually computers with Intel Core i5 or more powerful processor support can easily use Virtual Machine Excel. Weaker processors such as the Intel Core i3 or ARM processors do not perform as well as the virtual machine; Therefore, if you are running Linux on an older computer, you will not be able to run Windows on a virtual machine. However, in most cases, the smartest way is to install Excel directly on Linux.

How to install Windows software on Linux?

Fortunately, you can install Windows software on Linux. Sometimes software installation is natively possible and sometimes simulation is required. For example, older MS-DOS software can be installed on Linux as well as Windows and macOS using DOSBox. Dosbox is an emulator for MS-DS; However, other systems can also be simulated with the appropriate software. To install Excel on Linux, you need the installable version of Excel and Wine and its accompanying application, PlayOnLinux.

Many current versions of Linux have Wine and PlayOnLinux installed by default. To install them, open the app menu and find Games. You can also find them in the Accessories category; Otherwise, you have to install them manually. You can find both in the default package manager of your Linux operating system.

Search for Wine and PlayOnLinux, and then click Install. After installing Wine and PlayOnLinux on the system, start installing them:

1. Open PlayOnLinux.

Enjoy adapting your Windows application to Wine

Many applications and games can be run on Linux thanks to Wine. Software settings and support are added through PlayOnLinux. Microsoft Excel Viewer is also a smart alternative for most people who do not need to edit Excel files; But more often than not, LibreOffice and OpenOffice are better alternatives to Microsoft tools on Linux.
