There do appear to be several but the Spreadsheets for Confluence appears to be most popular.

* [Confluence apps - formulas](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?product=confluence&query=formulas)
* [Spreadsheets for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.valiantys.spreadsheets/server/overview)

Let us know if you have any questions about any of these!

Regards,

But When comparing with office Excel, there is nothing more in those plugins. isn't it?

I am looking for a formula plugin that could work with default confluence tables.

Is there any other known plugin that could use this way?

I'm simply going by what Marketplace has when you search the word "formulas" and I pointed out the most popular.

There are 5 more besides that:

* [Marketplace - Fomula add-ons in Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?product=confluence&query=formulas)

I don't have any experience with those in particular; perhaps someone stumbling upon this article will, but you're welcome to try out those add-ons and see if they do what you need.

Regards,

Shannon

As this question mentions our [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud&utm_source=atl_community) app, we are happy to introduce its new macro -- [Table Spreadsheet](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Spreadsheet+macro?utm_source=atl_community).

The macro allows you to work with fully functional Excel spreadsheets right in Confluence.

You'll be able to use cells' formulas, filters, conditional formatting, etc., create pivot tables and charts from the page view and edit modes.

The Table Spreadsheet macro is available for Cloud and Server/Data Center.

Starting from version 5.0 of the [Table Filter and Charts](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview) app you can use formulas in tables with the help of the [Table Transformer](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/TableFilter/Custom+Transformation+-+use+cases+with+advanced+SQL+queries) macro. [Here](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=33359436#CustomTransformation-usecaseswithadvancedSQLqueries-Usingformulas) you can find the examples of using formulas.

Let me know if you need more details.
