In our 150-people team as part of a 1,500 people company, we use a ton of Excel, but a significant part of our structured data is in https://airtable.com, which I can't recommend high enough.
It combines the structured-ness of a database with the ease of use of a spreadsheet. And it lets you slowly evolve your datamodel (we adjust fields/tables every few months and it usually only takes 15 minutes).
