Google Sheets provides `UPPER(text)` to convert a specified string to uppercase.	Notion formulas support `upper(text)` to convert text to uppercase.	Acrobat help content focuses on PDF form fields and calculations rather than a spreadsheet-style UPPER function.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: You can place the formula directly in a multidimensional table field and keep results synced with record updates.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to convert text to uppercase directly inside a multidimensional table field, WPS UPPER fits routine data-cleaning work well. Compared with Excel, Google Sheets, and Notion, its usage is centered more on record-based table workflows, while Adobe Acrobat focuses on PDF form handling instead of the same kind of table formula workflow.

Use Cases

No.	Scenario	Suitable Users	Main Pain Point	How UPPER Helps
1	Standardize customer names	Sales and operations teams	Imported names use inconsistent letter case	Convert names to uppercase with UPPER
2	Normalize code or ID display	Project and admin teams	Mixed-case identifiers look inconsistent	Output a consistent uppercase format in a formula field
3	Clean imported records in batches	Data coordinators	Manual edits take too much time	Let the formula field calculate and refresh automatically
4	Combine text processing rules	Advanced table users	One function alone is not enough	Nest UPPER with other functions
5	Build a standardized display column	Team collaborators	Raw fields are not ideal for direct display	Create a new formula field for uppercase output
