Helps to bring order to the chaos

Helps to solve issues we had beforehand. Helps to save working time (if everybody contributes which remains a challenge). Makes working with PowerPoint more efficient.

PROS

The authoring tool make PowerPoint much more comprehensive. The central library with it's functions is really the key benefit and enables us to maintain a single source our truth regarding our different slide decks.

CONS

An administrative central user management console would be helpful. Performance has already significantly improved but there is still ground to gain. Some more features in the library with regards to history and a changelog would be nice.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your feedback. We are very pleased that you are satisfied with our solution and that you experience the advantages of the central library. Should you have any questions about administration please do not hesitate to contact our customer support - they will be happy to help! https://www.empowersuite.com/en/knowledge/support

Getting there

An essential tool for organisations that have many slides to manage, but it's still very buggy!

PROS

Slide library management, easy updates with side by side comparison wizard.

CONS

buggy, even after the latest update, I need to restart computer once per day and slow to upload and see new content in library.

Corporate Finance user feedback

Overall, we have been very happy. We have had a recent issue with SharePoint ad empower but the technical team is looking into this matter.

PROS

The graphing functionality is a game changer and allows us to deliver complex information in a simple and effective manner. Being able to save template presentations in a central library is also very useful.

CONS

We previously had issues with using empower tables in presentations because once we updated the data, the table format would change. We have also struggled to link tavles which have merged cells.

Vendor Response

Thanks for the awesome review! We're glad to hear that you're enjoying using empower®. Feel free to visit our Help Center or check out our YouTube channel to learn more about tables in PowerPoint. If you still have questions, please contact our support team. We are always here to help.
