Inserting, Updating or Deleting Data in SQL Server from an Excel Spreadsheet

I have seen your previous tips (Export data from SQL Server to Excel and Different Options for Importing Data into SQL Server) related to working with Excel and SQL Server data. The main command used in one of the tips is OPENROWSET. This has been beneficial for us because in our environment because our business users provide data to us in the form of Excel spreadsheets. Many of the situations end up translating to INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE code in one or more of our SQL Server databases. We always upload the data to a table and then begin the process. Although this process works are you familiar with any other options to directly perform the INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE operations? Are their any benefits to transitioning our code to another approach with the OPENROWSET command?
