> The main argument against sqlite is that you would need to build an interface or figure out how to train folks on existing tools. That's not a huge argument against it in my experience, it's a strong social/political one in many orgs but rarely a technical issue.
The design of a solution needs to look into way more requirements than just the technical ones, time and money being 2 big ones. I think most of the HN readers would agree that you could end up building an interface with most of the Excel functionality, even more perhaps, on top of sqlite, and have your particular group of users trained on it.
