A link to the upgraded application is here.
Note that the name of the upgraded application in AppSource is currently CloudExtend Excel Data Management for NetSuite. This upgraded application will now also enable users to access all Analytics features they currently license through a single interface.
About this upgrade
With CloudExtend Excel Analytics for NetSuite users can export NetSuite saved searches in Excel on-demand or on a schedule, and then use that data inside of NetSuite for reporting, even connecting to Power BI or Power Query.
The latest version of CloudExtend Excel for NetSuite will incorporate the merging of CloudExtend Excel Data Management allowing users to easily switch between applications if they have a license for both apps.
Release Highlights

Effortlessly log in and connect to NetSuite for each of the applications
🔵 No restriction on the number of NetSuite accounts
There won't be any restriction on the number of NetSuite accounts users will have access to in the add-in. As long as your admin adds your email address under licensed users in the portal you should be able to use the add-in in any properly configured NetSuite account you have access to.
Switch between NetSuite roles without having to logout first
Ability to name your connections and edit them inline
Bundle install prompt is shown to users whenever they add a new NetSuite connection. The bundle is mandatory for both apps.

With this release, you will now have the option to log in with Google. This is particularly useful to users who don't have a Microsoft login and still want to use the app. They can now log in with a Google account and continue using the app.
