What usually goes wrong with it

  • Duplicates hidden by subtle differences

    Duplicates may not match exactly due to extra spaces, different cases, or formatting, making manual detection error-prone.

    DataMimi DataMimi trims spaces and ignores case differences to catch subtle duplicates automatically.

  • Large files slow down Excel

    Excel often lags or crashes when scanning thousands of rows for duplicates, especially without optimized tools.

    DataMimi It processes thousands of rows in the browser without slowing down or crashing Excel.

  • Complex formulas or VBA needed

  • No software installation allowed

    Users working on restricted devices cannot install add-ins or desktop tools to handle duplicate detection.

    DataMimi Runs fully online, so no software install or add-in is required even on locked-down devices.
