Libre office's filtering is far better though- being able to apply actual regex instead of Excel's weird proprietary pattern matching is just so much better that I opt for it most of the time.

I'm not usually doing any filtering of information. I'm doing calculation based analysis on tax returns for commercial loan underwriting.
