I have jumped from the Google sphere a few years back. I've been using Libresheets since then which is less than ideal for obvious reaons. Proton sheets would not only make my life more manageable, but many others. It's an essential component of online based productivity suite.

I think of Gmail Auto forwarding as a temporary solution until you can fully migrate into proton mail.

Email is pretty important and hard to migrate, you’ll have thousands of accounts linked to it, thousands of people who know you by that email.

Migrating all of that takes time maybe even years to be 100% sure that you got everything off - So having Auto forwarding makes sense there.

Drive on the other hand is a single download/upload and you’re done. Having a full migration/syncing service is imho overkill for such. Spending that time on a linux client and/or actual sheets is way more useful.

Google Sheets is one of the only things I am still stuck using at Google. Please introduce a Proton Sheets equivalent so I can finally leave Google for good!

Slides would be nice, but sheets is critical. Can't move from Google Workspace until Proton has this.

To fully replace Google Docs/Sheets, we really need Excel support in Proton — otherwise, it’s impossible to migrate all documents.

But Proton Mail still has autoforwarding from Gmail?

I don’t think syncing via easy switch is any useful. Google is still harvesting your data.

It also may not be as easy to implement as mail easy switch. The time it will take to implement drive easy switch will be better spent on actual Sheets.

I don’t think they are far away from having sheets into drive as they’re very business focused at the moment as we saw with Proton Meet. Sheets shouldn’t be far away as it is a business essential.

Update: Sync with Google Drive via Easy Switch and piggyback off their Sheets for the time being?

Comment how you feel about this.

Until they make their own Sheets.

you should be able to mount proton drive as a virtual drive on linux, as Google Drive allows.
this function is becoming essential today.

I would like to add Forms to the list.

We currently use Formidable Forms in our website and it only connects to Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel (365), meaning that it's not really possible to guarantee the best possible protection of personal information.

How fitting would it be if we could use a form (embedded on the website for instance) and connect it to a spreadsheet, all in the same environment where privacy is the focus?

I think this would be really useful for folks trying to incorporate Proton more into their overall Internet usage. I currently use Numbers on Mac, which isn't as robust as excel, but even having some limited functionality in a web application would be useful, even if more complex work needs to be done offline.

Please desperate for a spreadsheet alternative! Trying to divest as much from google as possible.

As everyone else is saying, I desperately need a spreadsheet app to get off Google. I personally don't need slides.

Not having sheets available in Proton Drive is what prevents my whole family from signing up to family offer. Would attract a *LOT* of new clients willing to leave Google.... but cannot because they presently collaborate in Google Sheets on well established processes...
Would be GREAT to prioritise this ASAP.

to me Sheets is a must, Slides is a nice to have

I would make a full switch if I had a real alternative to Google Docs or Word, where I can write and format documents to use at University. But right now I can't even add a Citation or format the page to a DIN A4 format with numbering on the pages etc., so the most basic features are missing and should really be added.

This is a must have! If proton were to provide full office suite, then I'd be able to completely de-Google my personal work.

For business use, there would have to be support for integrations with third party tools via a public Proton API or SDK, similar to what's available with Google tools. E.g. proton sheets with Zapier or a custom Python script.

Keep up the great work!

Absolutely, Please DO SO ASAP
All comments are in the same direction, if we want to empower Proton, we need Proton to do this for the users, who btw support PROTON with their subscriptions.

In addition: Please improve the Calendar output to mail
"An event starting ....." is an useless message, please forward to email the title of Calendar task THX
Looking forward hearing from you very soon

I'm sure you guys are sick of hearing this, but please bring spreadsheets to Proton Drive and allow me to break completely free from Google's grasp! Even a basic version would be wonderful! Thanks!

I think Proton is my best answer to switching from Google Drive, but I need spreadsheets to live (I'm not even exaggerating), so I will wait.
