ODS stands for OpenDocument Spreadsheet. It is the default spreadsheet format used by LibreOffice Calc and Apache OpenOffice Calc. ODS is an open, ISO-standardized file format unlike Microsoft's proprietary formats, ODS is free for any software to use. However, it is not always compatible with Microsoft Excel without conversion.
Microsoft Excel does not always open ODS files correctly. Formulas may not work, formatting can change, and Excel mobile apps have limited ODS support. Converting to XLSX or XLS ensures full compatibility with Microsoft Office, allows sharing with colleagues who use Excel, and ensures your spreadsheet works correctly on all devices.
XLSX is the modern Excel format introduced with Microsoft Office 2007. It supports larger files, more rows and columns, and better formatting. XLS is the older Excel 97-2003 format with more limited capabilities. Choose XLSX unless you specifically need to open the file in a very old version of Excel (pre-2007).
