Maths Teacher Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Awesome Add-In for Education Professionals" April 7, 2022 5.0 I just love it. Pros The quick access tools and user-determined library of content triple the speed at which I can create lessons in Powerpoint. Everything is intuitive and trouble-free. Cons It is great value but, as a non-profit-making teacher, it would be extra-beneficial if there could be a price concession for education professionals! Review Source JH Jim H. Enterprise Strategy & Solutions Dir. Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "I've Tried Several Similar PPT Toolbar Add-ins BUT PPT Productivity is the best - Essentially 4 in 1" May 2, 2022 5.0 Developer is VERY responsive to inquiries and helpful! Overall, a great experience with the tool and the developer. Pros I have tried several similar toolbars but PPT Productivity is my favorite and what I consider to be the best. It is essentially 4 toolbars in one - The main PPT tab on the Ribbon, the Formatting toolbar, the Library and the Color toolbar. It has a formalized settings feature which gives me control of customizing the plugin. I love, love, love the library of consulting-level models and images, as well as the seamless integration into the library when saving my own slide or images. Everything just seems to work and feels very professionally developed (as opposed to my second favorite, power-user, which sometimes feels like it is being developed as a side-hustle (good options, but limited and quirky) Cons There was a learning curve to some of the features as the icons were not always obvious (features that I had never used/wasn't aware of). Once I committed to this toolbar because of the PROs outweighing my familiarity, it is my go-to. It is more expensive than the others, but it is more polished and has more features. I wish it had a 2-machine license instead of just one, especially for the annual fee. Switched from [Power-user](https://www.capterra.com/p/206542/Power-user/) Better functionality. More polished product. Review Source RC Raphaël C. Senior consultant Environmental Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Switching from Efficient elements to PPT productivity" November 5, 2024 4.0 Experience was pleasant and the software very easy to install (much more than a competitor) even with strict corporate policies. Pleasant experience overall and easy to get used to Pros Configurable settings Useful newsletter Simple yet useful functionalities Cons it took a bit of time to get used to the layout Review Source JM Jeroen M. Chief Financial Officer Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very good, 'go-to' software when preparing Powerpoint presentations" May 3, 2022 5.0 Quite positive. I am able to prepare my presentations quickly in the right layout and format. Pros The software is pretty intuitive and therefore easy to use Perhaps this seems trifle but the possibility to include the total number of pages in the footer (e.g. 1 of 10). I still cannot believe that Microsoft has not resolved this in Powerpoint itself. Very good at changing, rotating and aligning shapes on a slide. Cons The ability to link to Excell. Perhaps due to my inexperience but this seems way easier in Think-Cell and Grunt. However, the formatting possibilities from PPT productivity far exceed those from the latter two companies. Alternatives considered [Grunt](https://www.capterra.com/p/238129/Grunt/)[think-cell](https://www.capterra.com/p/180388/think-cell/) Reason for choosing PPT Productivity I did not yet choose to do so. I have already bought Think-Cell and I am trying out Grunt. A combination of all three programs would be ideal... Review Source LI Luca I. Consultant Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Senior Consultant" October 21, 2025 5.0 Pros Big fan of the product! Worked at MBB, can keep up my efficiency with almost 95%+ exact same shortcuts. Immaculate and fast customer support! Review Source HO Henrik O. Co-Innovation Lead SAP Cloud for Utilities Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "PPT Productivity is a must have for heavy Powerpoint users" October 26, 2021 5.0 Perfect! I could not imagine to work without it! Believe it or not: I am not paid by PPT Productivtiy for this review ;-) I really recommend this tool to everybody who has wo write a lot of slides! Pros It saves so much time and your slides look so much better than doing it without PPT Productivity. I learned the value of this tool during my time in strategy consulting where it was a must have, too. Since then I don't want to create slides without PPT Efficiency. It is easy to use and by the way very, very similar which was used at BCG which made it very easy to get into it. You can adapt it towards your needs. The support from the company is outstanding good - they helped me everytime when I had to bridge the gap between license renewal periods in a very easy and unbureaucratic way - that is really and outstanding customer service! Cons I don't wish anything in there as it contains everything what I need to be most efficient when working on ppt slides. Review Source KR Kai R. Managing Director & Principal Consultant Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I absolutely love this product" June 23, 2021 5.0 Pros I was lucky enough to get access to a similar tool when I worked at BCG. When I left, I immediately felt the impact of having to do all of the basic slide work myself. While it was only saving me 10 minutes here or there, it was adding up to hours a week. I feel so lucky to have discovered PPT Productivity. As someone who uses PowerPoint everyday, I cant imagine life without it now. I find the Colors and Format toolbars the most useful, and the Notes are really helpful for when working in teams. My absolute favourite time saver is the Swap Position function that interchanges two objects without the need to reformat - I use it most days as I finesse my slides. The product is great value for money, and pays for itself in saved effort over a few days. Cons The only Con that I can see if the Slide Gallery - there are so many now, that it can be hard to find the one that I need. Because the other tools are so convenient and powerful, I tend to do it myself. Review Source Response from Sconey Pty Ltd October 8, 2021 Thanks for your feedback Kai and swap positions is definitely a very popular feature! Book in a catchup using our demo link on the website if you want to chat about the Slide library. You can rename slides or elements from the downloadable series to customize names which makes search easier. We're happy to show you how. RK Ralph K. Exec Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cannot live without it! Best PPT plug-in." May 8, 2024 5.0 PPT productivity has helped tremendously with slide making. I find this the most important plug-in, followed by think-cell. Have subscribed since 2017. Customer service is also great, they have responded in a timely manner and personally assisted in times of need (e.g. with technical difficulties). Pros The ease of use, it should be the standard as a PowerPoint plugin. Simplifies making presentations with all the built-in shortcuts. Feels something is missing if PPT productivity is not installed. Cons Pricing can be more flexible, especially if there are effects of currency exchanges - or if you need to pay for it yourself. Review Source SW Steven W. Commercial and Strategy Manager Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Solid product " June 8, 2022 5.0 Pros Easy to use and on par to add-ons available from big professional services firm Cons Limited scope of us (ppt only) Would be good to have google-slides compatibility, or a way where a single user can use the tool across their MS365 ecosystem. Review Source PR Paul R. Executive Director Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Can't be productive without it!" August 12, 2021 5.0 I've used this since I left BCG and I'm so reliant on it that I pay every year at my own expense so I can use it on my personal laptop as well. Also I've never had any issues installing it on corporate versions of powerpoint so happy days. Overall this is a brilliant product that makes my life easier every day. Pros Familiar layout and easy to use panes consolidate all of the shortcuts and macros that I use over and over into a series of always-accessible windows. If you're coming from BCG, you'll find that this looks and feels very similar to the tools you had...at least as of when I was there ~6 years ago. Cons It will take a lifetime to learn how to use all of the shortcuts and features included -- same as any powerful software package. Review Source Response from Sconey Pty Ltd October 8, 2021 Thanks so much for your feedback Paul DJ Deborah J. VP Innovation Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great product, great service" May 31, 2023 5.0 I have been working with PPT Productivity for 4 years now, and consider it indispensable. It improves my efficiency in PowerPoint significantly. Pros Love the efficiency it enables. The team is very responsive in helping us load our company templates whenever we have changes. Library Cons Would be great to have more user friendly training for new users (built-in modules, etc.) Review Source BG Beranek G. partner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best choice for quick impact" May 9, 2022 5.0 Pros 1\. Ease of access and deployment 2. Very well organized features / information 3. Rich template content beyond standard features 4. Excellent service: direct comunication, prompt answers and active listening to customer needs Cons I'd make use of charting tools (e.g. similar features to think cell) - while I know it's a much bigger development Review Source TG Tom G. Exec Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simply the best PowerPoint slide building add on" April 7, 2022 5.0 Pros All the intuitive formatting tools are at your fingertips. The toolbar is easy to customise. PPT Productivity makes it so much faster and easier to get professional looking slides. And customer support has been amazing. Cons The PPT tab is a bit counter intuitively structured compared to standard microsoft tabs. From a muscle memory perspective, that could do with some improvement. But I used the sidebar 99% of the time. Switched from [Templafy](https://www.capterra.com/p/154533/Templafy/) Cost Review Source AG Alex G. Senior Director Executive Office Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great product" April 24, 2023 5.0 Pros Text editing and colours are great and very convenient Cons Need more keyboard shortcuts, icons and images library Review Source Response from Sconey Pty Ltd August 18, 2023 Thanks for the review Alex. We're pleased to update that ~900 new icons (that are resizable and recolorable) have been added to the downloadable library in August 2023 GP George P. Senior Analyst Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Saves hours and makes formerly tedious tasks quick and easy" August 23, 2023 5.0 By far my most used plug-in/add-in across all my applications. Pros I use all the alignment and formatting options constantly. But the Find by type... option is the best thing since Search was invented. Cons The Library of icons and templates is handy, but I wish the designs were more up-to-date and stylish. Review Source FK Felix K. Head of Business Strategy Medical Devices Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Significant efficiency increase for everyone designing beautiful slides" October 4, 2021 5.0 It really addresses the daily needs of every Powerpoint Poweruser, but also supports users who rarely use Powerpoint, by providing various example slides. Pros Easy to install, easy license management, easy to customize for corporate slide design and colors, continuous feature development based on user needs. Cons It's not yet fully interoperable with Thinkcell. Reason for choosing PPT Productivity Better customer service Review Source Response from Sconey Pty Ltd October 8, 2021 Thanks for the feedback Felix, we're glad you are enjoying PPT Productivity! EB Ed B. Strategy Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Awesome productivity booster" December 22, 2020 5.0 I've just found it makes me a lot faster in PPT. When I worked for a consulting firm, we had our own in-house custom additions to PPT which I struggled without. PPT Productivity gave me all those features back and a lot more Pros All the bonus features I didn't even realise PowerPoint was missing but now can't live without. This software was clearly designed by people who have spent a lot of time in PPT and have thought carefully about how it could be improved Cons There are so many features I feel like I still don't know what half of the buttons do! But they have great regular emails which quickly show you one feature at a time which is a great way to get up to speed gradually Review Source Response from Sconey Pty Ltd October 8, 2021 Thanks for the feedback Ed. The PPT Productivity team are all ex management consultants - we created features in response to our own pain points. If you feel like you haven't gotten across all the features you're welcome to book in a meeting using the demo link on our website - one of the team will have a chat to work out what you're using so far and then show you what else might help you save time.

March 20, 2023 5.0 I use Powerpoint everyday so the PPT Productivity toolbars save me hours and hours of work!! Pros Toolbars with the most frequently used buttons right there for fast and efficient production of ppt slides! Cons TBH there isn't anything that I don't like about PPT Productivity Review Source GH Goozy H. ex-consultant. BD professional Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent functionality and value" October 6, 2021 5.0 Very good, very pleased, I would encourage anyone who uses PPT to use this solution Pros Saves tons of time, the smart shortcuts constantly update to better fit the needs of power and occasional users alike, also have terrific support, very responsive, friendly, and helpful Cons Honestly, I can't think of things that bugged me with this product Review Source NC Neil C. Head of Research Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent tool" May 3, 2022 5.0 Pros It's very easy to use and makes presentation writing so much faster, neater and easier. Cons It requires work on our side t install and update due to our firewalls Review Source MB Marie B. VP Strategy Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Amazing tool for a McKinsey alumnus" March 28, 2023 5.0 Pros This product is exactly what I've been looking for after leaving McKinsey: it contains a broad set of great formatting functionalities that I used to have as a consultant and are not available in the basic version of ppt, and there is even a set of McKinsey shortcuts, which enables me to keep my ppt habits in my new position. Cons Not a real issue or con, but it requires some training to become familiar with all icons and efficiently use the full range of functionalities - some icons are not very self-explanatory and require us to read the manual or try them out to understand how to use them Review Source IB Isaac B. Associate Investment Management Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Must-have PPT add-in" June 28, 2023 5.0 Pros Love the keyboard shortcut manager that allows me to quickly look up existing and add my own keyboard shortcuts. The formatting tools are robust and very helpful. Cons Would love to ability to customize a set of 'Ctrl + #' shortcuts for quick shape/textbox formatting (e.g., 'Ctrl + 1' always formats a selected shaped/text box into the template's title text box). Review Source MC Monica C. Associate Director Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "\[sensitive content hidden\] provided amazing Customer Service" February 8, 2024 5.0 \[sensitive content hidden\] was so patient and help with me, she deserves a promotion and a raise! Pros Shortcuts for resizing, realigning are incredibly helpful Cons Setting up the libraries is really complicated Review Source SM Sammy M. Analyst Investment Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Fantastic Product, Great Price" May 25, 2023 5.0 Pros Easy to use, has all the features you could want; responsive customer success team Cons Nothing missing! Product works great Review Source DW Damien W. MD Strategy & Portfolio Management Online Media Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "PPT Productivity is highly valuable" December 29, 2020 5.0 Having recently moved from a consulting firm with a full suite of powerpoint add ins to a corporate with no powerpoint add ins I was finding powerpoint slow and frustrating to use. My team and I were putting together a paper for the Board and we needed to be more efficient so I downloaded PPT Productivity initially as a free trial to see if it would help. PPT Productivity was immediately helpful and significantly improved my and my team's efficiency. It is intuitive and easy to use and has everything I have needed. Pros I like the shape tools which are so helpful in efficiently sizing, aligning, re-sizing and moving shapes. The colour palette is also very useful and speeds things up Cons No issues or concerns, all easy to use and works well Review Source Response from Sconey Pty Ltd October 8, 2021 Thanks for the feedback Damien, great to know you that PPT Productivity is helping you and your team.
