How to use COUNTIF and COUNTIFS in Microsoft Excel
Ғылым және технология
Learn how to use COUNTIF and COUNTIFS to count the number of cells that meet a criterion or multiple conditions; for example, to count the number of times a particular city appears in a customer list.
In this video, I run through the following:
1) Count how many times a certain string or number appear in a list
2) Count how many times multiple items appear in a list
3) Count how many items are greater than or less than a certain value
4) Count how many items are between certain values
5) Count how many items do not match certain values
6) Count how many items begin or end with certain characters
7) Count how many items match certain conditions across multiple columns
Lastly, I cover how to use Excel for free on the web. Excel on the web supports the COUNTIF and COUNTIFS functions.
Here's the sheet I used if you want to follow along:

Your'e the best❤...your videos are my go to for everything I need. Thanks so much!
This has been the most easy to understand COUNTIF/S tutorial for BEGINNERS like me. Very helpful, thanks!
I spent hours trying to figure out how to get a formula like this to work for the data I was trying to organize and this was the magic video that stopped my search. THANK YOU!
You're the best because 'when you teach something you cover each and every aspects of the topic'. Thank you ever so much
I really really hope Microsoft was paying you extra for these videos bc I know a lot more people are using excel bc of you. Everyone in my office watches your videos from old to young either to brush up or to learn something new. As always, thank you for your videos Kevin and not just for Microsoft products but all the programs/system you teach us how to use (I literally learned how to edit videos from your other videos too)
I am a brand new accounting student. Literally in my first unit, in my first semester. You sir are a life saver! Thank you so much, you have a new subscriber :-)
Man, you just saved my week, didn't know about that ">"& to reference a cell.
Awesome, thanks for this! 👍🏼 putting together a huge tracking spreadsheet for work and this formula is a life saver
Kevin, this video helped me so much with a project that I'm doing right now. No one else could help me with the count question! Thanks so much!!!
I paid so much money to a course through a local university to learn Office and I end up on your videos because you explain it so much better than they do. Thank you!
Hey man, thanks a million for the help. I'm working on some modules for work and the instructions that we're given are completely vague and lacks proper directions. THIS was insanely helpful. I just hit the subscribe button. Thanks again.
Thanks Kevin for your efforts on the countif/s functions... great work and very helpul.
Another quite simple and direct and accurate video! My ADHD thanks you, good Sir, for a job well done!!!
thank you so much for your good lesson!!! very straight to the point and easy to comprehend !
Brilliant. Clear and straight to the point. Easy to understand. Thank you
With the help of this video I solved my headache worksheet. Thanks alot Mr.Kevin Stratvert. God bless you.
I AM NEW TO EXCEL, I DID NOT ONLY LEARNT COUNTIF AND COUNTIFS BUT ALSO THREE MORE USEFULL THINGS I DID NOT KNEW AND TEACHING STYLE IS BEST.
5:00 first check point 6:52 second check point 8:24 third checkpoint 10:55 final lap FINISHED!
Thank you Kevin, it really helped me a lot
I didn't know that the "=COUNTIFS" function requires 2 sets of condition for it to work. This video helped it break it down for me. Thanks alot!
You could not ask for this to be any clearer. Thanks!
Kevin! Kevin! Kevin! You are a star. Thanks for this great video
I am addicted to your videos because I became very confident that after watching them, I can call myself an expert in what I just learned. Thank you so much, Kevin! 👍👍👍

Great to hear!
Great video very informative to understand. You're a good teacher. Thank you.
Perfect! This is exactly what I'm looking for! Thanks a lot. It'll help me creating my tracker 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Awesome
Thank you - I support multiple programs, and have a spreadsheet for the personnel I'm responsible for with their program & location noted. But couldn't figure out how to set up running tallies of different data points for the inevitable "need the info yesterday" data calls without getting a !SPILL error. I'd figured out how to use COUNTIF, but not how to combine multiple programs or locations without having multiple queries then SUM those cells. Using your walkthrough, I just set up 4 different COUNTIFS that have info I am often asked for, so I can now respond to "Need NOW" emails as fast as I can pull up the spreadsheet. You've saved me a lot of time & stress, thank you.
You just cleared my one month lesson in one video... thank you soooo much.. you saved me😄
Very much interesting & useful also. Keep making this type of videos .
THANKSSSS....after checking so many videos, finally I got here what I was looking for!
Wow thanks bro, youve literally saved me hours of work. Its not that I didn't know the formula, but I was underperforming it. I didn't know that the "range" could deal with multiple sets of data at once. I was using this function for each row for thousands of samples instead of using the "range" to combine everything and calculate a full table of data in one cell....not sure if you get me, lol but thanks this helped
Thanks so much I can never forget this tutorial. So helpful
This awesome. I really loved the "wild card" tutorial on how to count "start with" and "end with". I will be using this feature a lot. My biggest issue is how to copy the formula and paste to multiple columns without changing the formula. I always have to do redo the formula for each column. I'm teaching myself how to do metrics and I work with a company that have 32 groups and always have to show results for each month or for multiple criteria.

After you copy the formula, hit the "ESC" key, then paste the formula in another cell.

Thanks Kevin, these are some sick function tips
Great and infomative video! Very easy to understand. great Job!!!
Year 2024 and it is still helping. Thanks Kevin for the good work!
You saved alot of my time thank you so much for sharing this information. 💜
Thanks for helping as revision for my test tomorrow! :)
I really learned a lot from this. Rich examples and great delivery. Thanks for all you do
Thank you Kevin. Liked your countif presentations.Simple and variety of countif , countifs were simple and easy to understand. 🎉 Please feature power query importing and cleaning financial data from SAP, ORACLE; csv, pdf
wow! very clear explanation! Thanks a lot!
Thanks Kevin, good job
Very good video. It would be great to include "extra" tips by mentioning you can select the whole range by using shortcut keys. If the range extends two or more screens click and drag would be a drag (pun intended). Excellent video though. Thans.
I really learn so much with your videos very well explained, THANK YOU!
A well effective session.
Thank you! That document really helped.
Straight to the point ! Thank you!
Thank you!
For the red and yellow example, instead of adding 2 countif formula's can I just use countifs instead? What is the difference between count multiple items and countifs?
This is really helpful. I've been searching how to count how many B if A in two different rows.
you know how to teach, you made it easy with ease and patience, thank you. will base my search on your channel then:)
nice job. this really helped with my spreadsheet for work. i had 2 sheets that didn't balance...i suspected the 300's were the difference...actual error was 299.20 . used the countif to work out one sheet had 41 on, other had 42. not only was this quicker , it was far more accurate than if i'd done it manually. very useful trick as i often get this type of issue. ( having found the big diff, i then zero'd in on the smaller diff of 0.80 soon anyway ! :) )
Great tutorial Kevin, however, I have single cells in my spreadsheet with multiple numbers that I'm trying to summarize. For example cell E:7 contains the numbers 2,3,5,7,9, 12. I want to ask Excel to tell me how many times the number "2" appears in cell E:7. I think this isn't possible no matter where I put the wildcard asterisk as Excel is reading all my number entires as one single number. ANy suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.
So usefull and simple, keep it up man.. greetings from Turkey 😉
You are brilliant. You,be very helpful to for almost 3 years now. 👍😎
I think out of this whole video the fact that you called the '&' by its real name was, most awesome, I had to look it up.
Tysm these videos have really helped with revision for my upcoming test! Wish me luck it's tomorrow
You're a real hero dude. Thank you
Thanks so much, you save me hours of head aches

Excellent presentation. Could you direct me to a formula to use on an Excel spreadsheet that contains dates & where I need to sort those dates by 60/180/365 days old? Thanks

Thanks Kevin, how do count number of instances against a date range on another sheet?
This will help me write my exam on Tuesday
omg!!! you are amazing, your help is soooo valuable!!!!
Hey Kevin, what if I wanted to show my results on a different sheet? For example, on 11:29, what if I wanted to show the results of the "East region with at least 400 orders" on a separate sheet from the Multiple Criteria sheet? I'm curious to know how the formula would look on that.

I want to show or plot my data for example the 400 results like dots in a graph. Or at least mark them with a colour to identify them, could this be possible?

Very good and to the point
So for the Countifs function can you use it for more than 2 criteria to look up, such as 3 colums of data?
Very helpful video
Thank you very much my brother
Thanks a million ❤
