A client sends you a data set they want processed that is comprised entirely of large Excel files. What is the best Excel Text Extraction Method to get the data to review as quickly as possible?
The correct answer is A. Relativity. Relativity’s Processing throughput guidance states that internal performance testing has shown the Relativity text extraction method to be at least two times faster than the native method on Excel, Word, and PowerPoint file types, and also less error-prone than native extraction. Since the question asks for the best method to get a large Excel-only data set to review as quickly as possible, the documented speed advantage makes Relativity the best answer.
The native-based methods are slower according to that same documentation, even though they may have other use cases. The processing profile documentation also shows that native/failover combinations are available configurations, but the performance guidance specifically favors the Relativity extraction method for speed on Excel files. “Extract and place inline” is not the documented Excel text extraction method choice for this question. Therefore, the fastest and most review-efficient choice for large Excel files is Relativity.
