You can use the NOT function. Here are two examples, comparing values in cells A1 and A2 to see if they are equal to each other or not. The first will give either TRUE or FALSE and the second will give either Different or Same:
=NOT(A1=A2)
=IF(NOT(A1=A2),"Different","Same")
You can use the less than and greater than symbols together for not equal to. It will give either a TRUE or FALSE response.

=6<>6
This is True:
=6<>7
