I have a cell in a spreadsheet that can have virtually any value. However, if that cell has one of four different values, I want a different cell to display certain text.
Right now I have this:
=IF(OR(A1="Cyan",A1="Magenta",A1="Yello",A1="Key"),"CMYK","Other")
Is there a simpler (less verbose) way to compare A1 to those values?
I looked at IFS() and SWITCH(), but they don't seem to be any less verbose.

For the specific case on the question it looks to me that the formula included already has the simpler formula
as the alternatives are more complex in one or another way.
IFS and SWITCH are pretty new Google Sheets built-in functions. Side-note: their help articles are not translated yet to Spanish. If they were found to not be any less verbose, then the following examples of alternatives will not found any less verbose either.
