WHY THIS TOOLSET
  - no need for formulas, macros, conditional formatting
  - comparison results are clear at first glance
  - user-friendly steps to ease the job
  - save your comparison settings for later use

WHAT YOU'LL FIND

  1. Compare Sheets for Duplicates
      - compare 2 or more columns or sheets in Google Sheets™ at a time
      - match data by rows (you choose the columns to consider)
      - find duplicate or unique rows no matter their position in tables
      - quickly navigate across all found values using cross-sheet links

      HOW COMPARE SHEETS FOR DUPLICATES WORKS

      - identify the found values with color or in a status column…
      - …or clear, copy, move, delete the found values
      - mark the changes in the required sheets: main, other compared, all sheets
      - add hyperlink references to connect dupes across sheets

  2. Compare Sheets Cell by Cell
      - compare as many sheets in Google Sheets™ as you need
      - match data cell by cell
      - find cells with different values across the sheets
      - find unique rows (where no cell in a row has a match in another sheet)

      HOW COMPARE SHEETS CELL BY CELL WORKS

      - highlight differences with hues of your choice
      - label differences in a status column
      - see a short description to know what other sheets look different
      - identify the changes in every compared sheet
      - create one full report with differences grouped accordingly

  3. Compare Columns
      - compare two columns on one Google sheet
      - find dupes or uniques in a single step

      HOW COMPARE COLUMNS WORKS

      - fill cells with color or add a status column
      - copy or move them to a place of your choice
      - clear values, delete cells & shift data up, or remove entire rows from the sheet

Great for comparing all the columns of the rows of the sheet, OR 2 columns of each row of the sheet. But no option for selecting three or more rows to run the comparison on. Despite the Overview stating MULTIPLE columns
