As someone who moved from software companies to IT management, seeing this move to fully embrace 'everything in Excel' or basically undefined business use cases/processes moved into software ad hoc and without validation, it's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. Especially for companies that have outsourced IT and expect software to be defined/tested out business processes in supported systems.

In house IT is going to be huge in a couple of years sorting out this mess. I would have never guessed the future would be all custom Excel spreadsheets, but instead of Excel just random code in random languages with random data stores.
