Here's a good side-by-side comparison page. Excel is one of the few programs that has keyboard shortcuts programmed in, otherwise, it's exactly as padas said. You will be missing many keyboard shortcuts from many programs or you'll be needing to press extra keys to get the same functionality. Office is first done on the Windows platform, then ported to Mac and they did a good job with retaining the keyboard shortcuts. Mac's were designed with the mouse as the primary UI, so it has always been missing useful built-in keyboard shortcuts.

They want you to use the mouse and get RSI. You can use ctrl-F2 (fn-ctrl-F2 on the stupid default laptop setup) to get to the menu. Then use the first letter of the menu item to get to the next item. If there are duplicate starting letters it seems to go alphabetically instead of by menu order like windows does. I've been forced to use a Mac Laptop at work, and still hate it.
The shortcuts for Microsoft Excel 2016 for Mac are now similar to Windows Keyboard shortcuts, that is you can now press Ctrl+V to paste instead of CMD+V which Mac-book Both interfaces have features that are different from each other. Microsoft Excel 2016 for Mac can create pivot tables automatically. Welcome to our Excel for Mac 2016 review, updated on 29 February 2016. As with all of the Office 2016 apps, arguably the biggest change in Excel 2016 is the neat look and feel.
You must remember to change the default settings. To make it bearable, I usually attach a mouse, keyboard and monitor. I also set the function keys to be function keys, since I actually use those much, much more than the stupid default multimedia crap. I do work with my computer, not spend my days watching videos. You have to hold the function key to do page-up and page-down, both very useful keys that are missing on a Mac.
The Mac laptop keyboard layout is just broken/crippled for real work use.
