Price monitoring spreadsheet vs alerts

A spreadsheet can be the right tool when the catalog is small and checks are infrequent. Alerts become more useful when a missed change has a clear cost.

Use a spreadsheet when

• You compare a small number of stable products.
• The source pages are easy to read and access.
• A weekly review is enough.

Consider alerts when

• Price or stock changes often.
• Someone must act within a defined time.
• You can state which source and product are being compared.

PricePilot is a planned €79/month concept. The price and workflow are hypotheses to validate, not an active offer. Join merchant research
