Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Lets you delete a table, table view, or dashboard from the left-side table panel through the More Actions menu and a confirmation step.	Microsoft Lists lets users delete list views, but a default view cannot be deleted until another view is made the default.	Google Sheets lets users delete sheet tabs, but the delete option is unavailable when only one sheet remains in the workbook.	Notion database views can be deleted from the current view name menu in database view settings.	Adobe Acrobat Sign supports deleting reports or exports, but those objects are not the same as tables, views, or dashboards in a multi-dimensional table.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: One entry point covers tables, views, and dashboards in the same workspace, which is convenient for structural cleanup.

Overall Conclusion: If your goal is to remove tables, views, and dashboards inside one multi-dimensional table, WPS provides a more centralized path. Other products usually cover only one nearby object type, such as a list view, sheet tab, or report, so the scope is not the same.
