Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Provides a Progress field in a multidimensional spreadsheet table on Android, so you can create the field and show completion with a progress bar.	Excel provides data bars through conditional formatting to visualize values with longer or shorter bars.	Google Sheets supports conditional formatting rules and also supports in-cell bar visuals through SPARKLINE.	Notion database properties include Number formatted as progress bars and Status for tracking task progress.	Acrobat official help focuses on PDF form field properties rather than a spreadsheet progress field.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS combines field creation and progress entry in the same table workflow, which fits mobile task tracking.	Compared with WPS: Excel official guidance here focuses on formatting existing values rather than creating a dedicated table field for progress tracking.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets can build similar visuals, but it often relies on formatting rules or formulas instead of a dedicated progress field.	Compared with WPS: Notion works well for database-style project tracking, but it is not the same cell-based spreadsheet field workflow.	Compared with WPS: Adobe official documentation here is centered on PDF forms, not spreadsheet progress management.

Overall Conclusion
For mobile spreadsheet progress tracking, WPS keeps creation and updating in one field workflow. Other products also offer progress-style visuals, but they are more often based on conditional formatting, formulas, database properties, or PDF form settings rather than the same Android spreadsheet field flow.
