The very first version of Excel was available only for Macs. Other programs you might want to look at are Apple - Numbers for Mac or Mariner Software, both of which are great spreadsheet programs.

Pages is a powerful word processor that lets you create stunning documents. You can even use Apple Pencil on your iPad to add comments and illustrations by hand. And with real-time collaboration, your team can work together, whether they’re on Mac, iPad, or iPhone, or using a PC.
