A multi format dashboard bundle is worth buying when you need the same reporting in more than one tool — Excel for offline modelling, Google Sheets for shared live data, and Power BI for board-level visuals. Buy the bundle once you need two or more formats, or three or more templates; below that, a single template is cheaper.
Last updated: September 2026
Key takeaways
- A multi format dashboard bundle pays off the moment you need the same report in two formats — buying an Excel and a Power BI template separately almost always costs more.
- The NextGen Ultimate Business Bundle is the best overall pick: 25 templates across Excel, Google Sheets and Power BI for $99.99 — about $4.00 per template.
- The cheapest way in is the HR & Payroll Bundle at $14.99 for 10 tools — roughly $1.50 per template, the best value on the list.
- Prices on this page run from $14.99 to $99.99, and every bundle is discounted 38–66% against buying its templates one by one.
- Do not buy a bundle if you only need one template in one format, or if your team has fully standardised on a single tool — you will pay for formats you never open.

How we picked these
We searched the full NextGen Templates catalogue — several hundred paid products across Excel, Google Sheets, Power BI, VBA and Word — and kept only bundles: packaged sets where you pay once for a group of templates rather than buying each screen separately. We excluded single templates, free magnets and any pack that ships in only one format when a multi-format edition of the same tool already exists.
Every bundle here is live, priced in USD, and carries a real published discount against the sum of its parts. A good multi format dashboard bundle wins on breadth and price, so we ranked on three things: how many formats the bundle spans, the true cost per template, and how much genuine reporting depth sits inside — not the sticker discount, which any vendor can inflate by raising the “regular” price. Where two bundles tied on price, the one covering more formats won.
The 10 best multi format dashboard bundles for 2026
1. NextGen Ultimate Business Bundle — best overall
What it is: the flagship multi format dashboard bundle — 25 premium templates spanning Excel, Google Sheets and Power BI in a single purchase.
Who it is for: teams that want finance, sales, HR and operations reporting covered across all three tools without buying anything else for a year.
- 25 templates: dashboards, trackers, KPI scorecards and management systems
- All three headline formats in one licence
- Ready-to-edit data models, not static screenshots
- One update stream instead of 25 separate downloads
At $99.99 (down from $149.99) this is $4.00 per template — the lowest cost-per-template of any multi-format option here. A finance team that would otherwise buy an Excel P&L dashboard, a Google Sheets cash tracker and a Power BI board deck separately clears the bundle price with three products. If you are choosing between formats rather than committing to all three, our guide to Excel vs Google Sheets vs Power BI dashboards walks through the trade-offs.
Best for: the widest coverage for the lowest per-template price. Get the Ultimate Business Bundle — $99.99.
2. Healthcare & Hospital Management Bundle
What it is: 8 premium templates for clinics and hospital administration, built in Excel with Power BI reporting views.
Who it is for: practice managers, hospital admin and healthcare operations teams that report to a board in Power BI but run day-to-day tracking in Excel.
- Patient, appointment and bed-occupancy tracking
- Revenue-cycle and department KPI dashboards
- Excel for entry, Power BI for the executive view
At $79.99 (from $99.99) this is the deepest single-vertical bundle on the list. If your clinic also handles contracts, pair it with the clinic contract management dashboard in Power BI and Excel.
Best for: healthcare teams that need one dataset feeding both an Excel workbook and a Power BI report. View the Healthcare Bundle — $79.99.
3. Manufacturing Excellence Bundle
What it is: 8 premium production and plant-reporting templates in Excel and Power BI.
Who it is for: plant managers and operations analysts tracking OEE, downtime, yield and shift output who need both a floor-level Excel sheet and a Power BI plant dashboard.
- OEE, downtime and production-efficiency dashboards
- Inventory and maintenance tracking
- Power BI models for multi-line, multi-plant rollups
At $79.99 (from $99.99) it is the natural pick when a single spreadsheet can no longer roll up several lines. Teams comparing formats first should read our note on Power BI premium alternatives in Excel and Sheets.
Best for: production reporting that has outgrown a lone spreadsheet. View the Manufacturing Bundle — $79.99.
4. Executive & Operations Scorecard Bundle
What it is: 9 premium Excel scorecards and dashboards for leadership reporting, discounted 62%.
Who it is for: COOs, CFOs and operations leaders who want a consistent scorecard format across treasury, operations and executive summaries.
- Executive KPI and treasury-operations dashboards
- Operations scorecards with traffic-light logic
- One visual language across nine reports
At $69.99 (from $89.99) this is the pick when the audience is the board rather than the shop floor. For related leadership tooling see our roundup of performance review templates for Excel and Google Sheets.
Best for: a single, board-ready scorecard style across the whole leadership pack. View the Scorecard Bundle — $69.99.
5. Retail & Store Analytics Bundle
What it is: 8 premium templates for retail across Excel and Google Sheets — inventory, sales and store performance.
Who it is for: multi-store retailers who keep head-office models in Excel but need store managers editing live in Google Sheets.
- Inventory-management and stock-reorder trackers
- Store sales and footfall dashboards
- Google Sheets copies for shared, live store entry
At $65.99 (from $81.99) this is the classic “head office in Excel, stores in Sheets” split. It pairs well with the broader sales dashboard templates for 2026.
Best for: retailers who need offline modelling and live shared entry at once. View the Retail Bundle — $65.99.
6. Project Management Pro Bundle
What it is: 9 premium project-management templates in Excel and Google Sheets.
Who it is for: project managers who plan offline in Excel but share task trackers and status with clients in Google Sheets.
- Gantt, task and resource trackers
- Project KPI and status dashboards
- Matching Excel and Sheets copies of each tool
At $49.99 (from $69.99) it is the sweet spot for agencies and internal PMOs. For a wider look, see our roundup of project management dashboard templates in Excel and Google Sheets.
Best for: PMs who live in both a private Excel plan and a shared Sheets tracker. View the PM Pro Bundle — $49.99.
7. Hospitality & Restaurant Bundle
What it is: 7 premium Excel templates with VBA automation for restaurants and hotels, discounted 44%.
Who it is for: restaurant and hotel operators who want automated Excel tools — booking, food-cost and shift management — without a separate app.
- Food-cost, menu-margin and inventory tools
- Booking and shift-management trackers
- VBA buttons for add / update / reset workflows
At $49.99 (from $59.99) the VBA automation is the differentiator: these behave like small apps inside Excel. Note this bundle is Excel-only, so treat it as automation depth rather than format breadth.
Best for: hospitality teams that want app-like Excel tools on one platform. View the Hospitality Bundle — $49.99.
8. Quality & Audit Management Bundle
What it is: 8 premium Excel templates for quality and audit teams, discounted 40%.

- Compliance-audit and non-conformance trackers
- CAPA and corrective-action logs
- Quality KPI dashboards
At $47.99 (from $59.99) it is the most affordable way to standardise audit reporting. It is Excel-only, so it fits teams already committed to spreadsheets rather than those chasing format breadth.
Best for: compliance teams standardising audit documentation in Excel. View the Quality Bundle — $47.99.
9. Real Estate & Property Bundle
What it is: 7 premium templates across Excel, Power BI and Google Sheets — the cheapest true three-format bundle on the list, discounted 66%.
Who it is for: agents, landlords and property managers who want portfolio reporting in whichever tool their investor or accountant prefers.
- Property-portfolio and rental-income dashboards
- Deal-pipeline and ROI trackers
- All three formats for under forty dollars
At $39.99 (from $49.99) this is the entry point for a genuine multi format dashboard bundle — the same portfolio numbers in Excel, Sheets and Power BI for the price of a single premium template elsewhere.
Best for: the lowest-cost way to get all three formats in one buy. View the Real Estate Bundle — $39.99.
10. HR & Payroll Template Bundle — best value

Who it is for: small businesses and HR teams on the tightest budget who need attendance, leave and payroll tracking now.
- Attendance, leave and payroll trackers
- Employee database and salary-slip tools
- 10 tools for the price of one premium template
At $14.99 (from $24.99) this works out to $1.50 per template — the best value on the entire list. It is Excel-only, so it is about volume and price, not format breadth.
Best for: the smallest budget and the most tools per dollar. View the HR & Payroll Bundle — $14.99.
Bundle vs single: the maths worked through
The whole case for a multi format dashboard bundle is cost per template. Here is a real worked example. Suppose a finance lead needs three things: an Excel P&L dashboard, a Google Sheets cash-flow tracker the team edits live, and a Power BI summary for the board. Bought individually, premium single templates on NextGen typically run $17.99–$24.99 each, so three separate buys land around $60–$72 — and you still only have three templates.
| Route | What you get | Approx. cost | Cost per template |
|---|---|---|---|
| Three single templates | 3 templates, mixed formats | $60–$72 | $20–$24 |
| Real Estate & Property Bundle | 7 templates, all 3 formats | $39.99 | $5.71 |
| NextGen Ultimate Business Bundle | 25 templates, all 3 formats | $99.99 | $4.00 |
| HR & Payroll Bundle | 10 templates, Excel | $14.99 | $1.50 |
The break-even rule: if you need three or more templates, or the same report in two or more formats, a bundle is already cheaper than buying singles — and every extra template inside it is effectively free. Below that threshold — one template, one format, one time — buy the single. Paying $99.99 for a 25-template bundle to use one dashboard is worse value than a $17.99 single, no matter how large the headline discount looks.
How to choose between them
- Need all three formats? Start with the Ultimate Business Bundle ($99.99); if the budget is tight, the Real Estate Bundle ($39.99) is the cheapest three-format entry.
- Excel + Power BI only? Choose by vertical: Healthcare or Manufacturing, both $79.99.
- Excel + Google Sheets only? Retail ($65.99) or Project Management Pro ($49.99).
- Excel only, on a budget? HR & Payroll ($14.99) for value, or Executive Scorecard ($69.99) for leadership depth.
If you are still deciding which format your team should standardise on before you buy anything, Microsoft’s own Power BI overview is a useful neutral reference on where Power BI fits alongside Excel.
When a multi format dashboard bundle is NOT the right answer
Bundles are not always the smart buy. Skip one and buy a single template — or software — in these cases:
- You need exactly one template, once. A single $17.99 dashboard beats a $99.99 bundle you will use 4% of.
- Your team has fully standardised on one tool. If nobody will ever open the Power BI or Sheets copies, you are paying for shelf-ware. Buy the single-format edition.
- You need real-time data from live systems. Templates report on data you paste or connect; if you need automatic pipelines from a database or CRM, budget for a BI platform instead. Our Power BI premium alternatives guide covers where templates stop and software starts.
- Your reporting is one niche the bundle does not cover. A vertical single template can go deeper than a general bundle’s version of the same report.
Balanced buying is cheaper buying. A bundle earns its price through breadth — if you will not use the breadth, the single wins.
Frequently asked questions
What is a multi format dashboard bundle?
A multi format dashboard bundle is a single purchase that packages the same or related reporting templates in more than one tool — typically Excel, Google Sheets and Power BI. You pay once and get matching copies for offline modelling, shared live editing and board-level visuals, instead of buying each format separately.
Is a bundle actually cheaper than buying templates separately?
Yes, once you need three or more templates or two or more formats. Single premium templates run about $17.99–$24.99 each, so three separate buys reach $60–$72. The Real Estate Bundle gives seven templates in three formats for $39.99, and the Ultimate Bundle gives 25 for $99.99 — roughly $4.00 each.
Which multi format dashboard bundle is best overall?
The NextGen Ultimate Business Bundle at $99.99. It covers Excel, Google Sheets and Power BI with 25 templates across finance, sales, HR and operations — about $4.00 per template, the lowest cost-per-template of any multi-format option, and enough breadth that most teams need nothing else for a year.
What is the cheapest way to get all three formats?
The Real Estate & Property Bundle at $39.99 is the cheapest true three-format bundle, giving seven templates in Excel, Google Sheets and Power BI. If you only need Excel, the HR & Payroll Bundle at $14.99 is the lowest entry price on the list, but it is single-format.
Do the templates in a bundle come as editable files?
Yes. Every bundle ships editable working files — live Excel workbooks, Google Sheets copies you can duplicate to your Drive, and Power BI files — not static images. You can change data, branding, formulas and layout. Some Excel bundles also include VBA buttons for add, update and reset actions.
Can I buy just one format from a bundle?
Not from within a bundle — the bundle price assumes you want the set. If you only need one format, buy the matching single template instead. Bundles only save money when you use more than one format or several templates; for a single-format, single-template need, the standalone product is cheaper.
Are the discounts on these bundles genuine?
The listed regular prices reflect the sum of buying each template separately, and the bundle discounts run 38–66%. We rank on true cost per template rather than the headline discount, because any vendor can inflate a “regular” price. On that measure the Ultimate Bundle ($4.00) and HR & Payroll Bundle ($1.50) lead the list.
Excel, Google Sheets or Power BI — which format should I use?
Use Excel for offline modelling and heavy formulas, Google Sheets for shared live editing across a team, and Power BI for board-level visuals and multi-source rollups. A multi-format bundle removes the need to choose — you get all three — but if you must pick one, match it to how your team actually works day to day.
Will these templates update my data automatically?
No. Templates report on data you enter or connect manually; they are not live pipelines from a database or CRM. If you need automatic refresh from source systems, you need a BI platform, not a template. For most small and mid-size teams, manual or connected refresh in Excel and Power BI is enough.
Do I get free updates and support with a bundle?
NextGen bundles include the current versions of every template and are designed to be edited freely for your own business. Check each product page for its update and customisation terms before buying, and reach out through the site if you need a template adapted to your workflow.
Get more multi-format dashboard templates
If you need one purchase that covers every department and all three formats, the NextGen Ultimate Business Bundle — 25 templates for $99.99 is the best-value multi format dashboard bundle on the site at about $4.00 per template. On a smaller budget, start with the Real Estate Bundle at $39.99 for three formats, or the HR & Payroll Bundle at $14.99 for the most tools per dollar.
