What Is Peltier Tech?
Updated
Peltier Tech is an Excel charting specialist that offers three services: charting software (add-ins), consulting, and training. It is relevant if you work in Excel and need chart types or automation that the built-in tools don't handle well — for example, waterfall or Marimekko charts, or applying consistent formatting across a large set of charts. The site describes itself as "a World Leader in Excel Charting" and frames charting as "a vital part of data analytics."
The three service lines
Charting software (add-ins)
Peltier Tech's software line began with the Waterfall Chart Utility in 2008 and has grown into a set of Excel add-ins. According to the site, these add-ins:
- Provide custom chart types that are "difficult and tedious to build in Excel"
- Include formatting tools for manipulating charts quickly
If your problem is a chart type Excel doesn't offer natively, or repetitive chart formatting, this is the relevant service.
Consulting
Peltier Tech has worked on Excel projects for third-party clients across manufacturing, finance, government, and the military. Examples given on the site include:
- VBA- and template-based projects for building complex business models
- Commercial add-ins used to monitor and improve manufacturing processes
- A market report builder that cut a customer's monthly reporting effort from two weeks to one day
- An Excel add-in that applies company styles to tables and charts before exporting them to PowerPoint
This fits situations where you have a specific, buildable Excel problem rather than a general training need.
Training
Training covers Excel topics related to data analytics and visualization: formulas, charting, Tables and Pivot Tables, Power Query, VBA programming, and dashboard reports. Formats range from one- to two-hour seminars to half-day, full-day, and multi-day courses, delivered at conferences, Meetups, association meetings, private company facilities, or by video meeting.
Which service fits your situation
| Your situation | Relevant service |
|---|---|
| You need a chart type Excel can't build easily | Charting software |
| You need to format many charts consistently | Charting software |
| You have a specific Excel project to build or automate | Consulting |
| You or your team need to learn Excel charting, formulas, Power Query, or VBA | Training |
What users report
The site's client quotes point to two recurring themes. One is time saved on repetitive work — "It took me about ten minutes to learn and saved me a shed load of time altering data ranges in about 110 excel charts" (John H), and "it probably would have taken me hours to create what your utility has allowed me to do in minutes" (Billy L). The other is satisfaction with specific chart types, including Marimekko charts (Matt W) and waterfall charts, with one user noting that "there are a lot of products out there for waterfalls, but yours still remains the best."
These are testimonials published by the vendor, so treat them as directional rather than independent evidence.
Before you decide
The homepage does not list prices, licensing terms, or account requirements for the software, consulting, or training. If cost or access terms matter to your decision, check the individual software, consulting, and training pages rather than assuming any of it is free or open without registration.
