I don’t have to worry about slides looking messy or off-brand. It is also great for team collaboration - everyone uses the same templates and assets, so there’s no confusion or outdated slides floating around. The ability to automate updates across slides is a huge plus. If something goes wrong, the support team is quick, helpful, and patient. They even record troubleshooting videos, which saves time when similar issues pop up later. > > **Cons**: I find it intuitive, but some colleagues struggle with certain features. A proper onboarding might help, but with busy schedules, that’s not always easy. > > I’ve been using empower for two years, and it’s made a huge difference in how my team creates presentations. It helps with design, layout, and template management, making sure everything stays on-brand and consistent across our team. If you create PowerPoint presentations regularly, empower is a great tool. It’s made my workflow faster and smoother, and I’d definitely recommend it. Given how much time it saves and the quality it ensures, I think it’s a solid investment. ----- ### "Empower Charts | Review" — 5.0/5 > **Vignesh** | *24 November 2025* | Railroad Manufacture | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use | Support from team if in any need is appropriate, precise | Auto renewal option is working well. > > **Cons**: Migration of existing charts from old file (made with old version) to current version takes time. The migration shouldn't take much time. Can have floating license for use between team (even for single use) to promote usage. > > Good | can be recommended to office team members Floating license/ trial version access if offered, should make experience best. ----- ### "Empower will kill your productivity" — 1.0/5 > **Christian** | *23 January 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Some of the features are a little easier to manipulate than the default PowerPoint features. Looks pretty professional at the end. > > **Cons**: It’s the buggiest, slowest, most aggravating thing to ever happen to PowerPoint. In fact, I’m typing this in between clicks while working in empower. If I open up a chart and manipulate data, half the time it completely crashes PowerPoint and I lose all my work. The other half of the time it takes upwards of a minute in between clicks for PowerPoint to catch up. At this point, I would seriously consider empower to be malware. This is no hyperbole. This has been a common theme despite multiple updates over the last 2 years. > > Terrible. I’m not really sure how there are this many positive reviews. Terrible software that my company forces me to use. Please fix this. ----- ### "A solid tool for Powerpointing" — 4.0/5 > **David** | *24 November 2025* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great charts. Simple side bar to navigate a wide range of formatting options without having to search through menus. Access to a wide range of icons and images. Excellent charting tools > > **Cons**: Can slow down Powerpoint after a while. I find I have to restart Powerpoint after a couple of hours of use. > > Very good. I use it on a wide variety of presentations. I particularly like the slide library function, to store and re-use slides ----- ### "Empower review" — 4.0/5 > **Jarrad** | *25 November 2025* | Executive Office | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Overall, the software performs as expected. It offers useful, easy-to-use functionality for charts, particularly Gantt charts, which are valuable for project management. Empower also provides a convenient and intuitive PowerPoint plug-in that streamlines slide creation and formatting. > > **Cons**: The main drawback is that it can slow PowerPoint’s performance. Additionally, if the empower plug-in is uninstalled or the service drops out for any reason, I’m unable to update or modify any charts previously created through empower within PowerPoint. > > Overall, empower has been a smooth and efficient addition to PowerPoint, offering great functionality and fair value. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/140317/empower?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/140317/empower) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | it | | ----- ## Structured Data
