The main features are:

- writing macros calling R to perform calculations;
- calling R functions from cell formulas, using Excel's auto-update mechanism to trigger recalculation by R;
- using Excel as a GUI for R.
RExcel works on Microsoft Windows (XP, Vista , or 7), with Excel 2003, 2007, 2010, and 2013.[1] It uses the statconnDCOM server and for certain configurations the rcom package to access R from within Excel.[2]
The RExcelInstaller package was removed from CRAN due to FOSS license restrictions.
