Why Google Sheets Data Management is Important
Google Sheets is a powerful tool for organizing and analyzing data, but it can be overwhelming for beginners or even experienced users when dealing with messy data. Without proper organization, you may end up spending a lot of time on repetitive tasks like copying and pasting or manually formatting cells.
Bad data management can lead to errors and inconsistencies in your data, making it difficult to draw accurate conclusions. Your insights might be top notch, but if your data is bad, or messy, you won't ever get to the analysis part. You'll be bogged down with bad data, forever.

Apps Script is a powerful tool for automating tasks in Google Sheets. With Apps Script, you can write custom scripts to perform complex tasks like importing data from other sources, sending emails based on specific criteria, and much more.
To get started with Apps Script, click on the "Extensions" menu and choose "Apps Script." This will open a new window where you can write and edit your scripts. You can also find pre-written scripts and examples in the Apps Script section here on Better Sheets.
Using Formulas
Formulas are another powerful tool for managing data in Google Sheets. With formulas, you can perform complex calculations and manipulate data to create custom reports and analyses.
Some common formulas include:
- SUM: Calculates the sum of a range of cells.
- AVERAGE: Calculates the average of a range of cells.
- COUNTIF: Counts the number of cells in a range. based on criteria.
- MAX: Returns the highest value in a range.
- MIN: Returns the lowest value in a range.
