### "empower ist ein hilfreiches Plugin für die effiziente Verwaltung von PowerPoint-Folien"

October 31, 2022

4.0

Pros

Für die Nutzung der Software bleibt man in der gewohnten PowerPoint-Umgebung. Mithilfe von empower kann man - bei konsequenter Beachtung und Anwendung der Updatemechanismen - PowerPoint-Folien unternehmensweit sehr gut verwalten und weiterentwickeln.

Cons

Für die erfolgreiche Nutzung der Softwarefunktionalität bedarf es eines tiefergehenden Verständnisses der Updateprozesse in empower, die auf dem ersten Blick recht komplex erscheinen. Die mitgelieferte Dokumentation könnte da noch verbessert werden. Außerdem wären eine Importfunktion für die Medien in der Bibliothek (Bilder, Videos) zukünftig sehr hilfreich (in einer früheren Version von empowervorhanden) sowie eine Anzeigefunktion, in welchen Folien die Medien eingebunden sind.

### "empower is a great tool four team!"

March 18, 2024

5.0

Pros

My favorite aspect of empower is its ability to hold "plug-and-play" slides in the Company Library for talking points that we regularly return to as we create new slide decks. This takes the burden off individuals to create something aesthetically compelling--AND it keeps us on-brand in terms of messaging/framing.

Cons

Certain folks on our team seem to have glitches with empower (either because of an update, or a change to permissions, or a mystery of the universe). Often a sync or a check-in with the very friendly and responsive empower staff resolves the issue, but due to our geographic distance (And subsequent time zone difference), it usually takes a day to resolve the issue.

### "Empower - faster slide creation and central corporate library"

June 23, 2023

4.0

Reducing search time for users, making sure they use the latest versions. Reducing content creation time due to effective tools and features. Translation of a whole deck while all formats and graphics are kept unchanged is a major benefit as well.

Pros

Corporate library allows to provide standard content (e.g. corporate slides or slide templates for re-use, photo and icon library) and templates (e.g. XLS forms) directly where the user needs it. On top of this, many additional PowerPoint features make slide creation easier (Agenda wizard, layout tools, DeepL translation)

Cons

There is a macOS version, but it has less features than the WIndows version. But is is providing the same library.

Response from empower GmbH

June 27, 2023

Thanks for the kind feedback. We're glad that you like working with the company library and the additional PowerPoint features so much. We are constantly working to bring the MacOS version in line with the Windows version. Some of the new features are already planned for the next update.

March 24, 2024

4.0

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.

### "Allround Tool that helps creating more appealing, effective and interactive Presentations."

August 17, 2023

4.0

Pros

The library function is great as all colleagues have access to the same content and templates. With only a few clicks you have a selection of many icons, templates, slides, content - helps creating more professional slide decks.

Cons

I think AI features are missing. Comparable tools already have the ability to use AI generated content/templates which is very helpful and saves a lot of time and effort.

November 29, 2023

4.0

Pros

It did what we needed it to do in terms of keeping our slide deck synced and updated. We have found the design library to be great and helped us create well designed slides.

Cons

I think the way it updates the slides and checks for updates is a bit confusing. It works when it works, but it is difficult to tell sometimes when it does not work.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that you find empower® helpful for creating timelines and visualizing progress over time. Regarding the performance and memory usage you mentioned: charts causing crashes or not displaying correctly is not expected behavior. In some cases, performance issues can be related to factors such as system resources, other installed add-ins, antivirus software, or the overall Office environment. Your internal IT team may be able to review this setup. We would also encourage you to reach out to our support team so we can investigate the issue together and help resolve it. At the same time, we continuously work on improving performance. You can see recent improvements here: https://support.empowersuite.com/hc/de/articles/20384357020444-Release-Notes-empower-Suite-9-7

### "A good PowerPoint maker solution"

March 24, 2019

4.0

My overall experience with empower is quite good. I have created many great presentations with the help of empower for our internal company meetings. The overall engagement of my PowerPoint engagement has improved after using the empower. I can recommend this product to businesses and individuals.

Pros

Empower by made-in-office is a PowerPoint content management add-in which integrates with the PowerPoint and helps to create seamless PowerPoint experience for the viewers. It contains thousands of beautiful slides which can be used inside your existing or a new PowerPoint project. It is straightforward to customize empower as per your brand requirements. Empower provides master templates or simply already crafted PowerPoint templates on the startup and can be used quickly with minor changes as per the requirements. Empower provides the ability and flexibility to pick various color pickers and font pickers to create extremely appealing PowerPoint slides.

Cons

Regarding the price point-of-view, they are distributing fewer licenses which can be not enough for the businesses. I have felt some minor lags while inserting videos and images in the slides.

Thank you for your positive feedback. We're glad to hear that you find empower® easy to use, well integrated, and good value, and that you’ve already recommended it to colleagues. Regarding the response time when working with Gantt charts: if changes appear slowly, this can sometimes be related to factors such as network conditions, VPN usage, other installed add-ins, antivirus software, or overall system load rather than empower® itself. Your internal IT team can often help review these aspects. At the same time, we continuously work on improving performance.
