A simple overview of the features and benefits of the formats
XLSX is a spreadsheet file format developed by Microsoft, default for Excel since Office 2007. XLSX files are based on the Open XML standard and stored as compressed ZIP archives, which reduces file size and speeds up data processing. The format supports tables, charts, graphs, and complex mathematical formulas. XLSX files can also be opened in Google Sheets, LibreOffice, and Apple Numbers.
ODS (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) is an open-source spreadsheet format developed by OASIS. ODS files are created in the Calc application included in LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice. The format supports tables, charts, formulas, and macros for automating tasks such as data formatting and calculations. Thanks to its open standard, ODS is compatible with most spreadsheet programs, including Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets.
