What is the difference between empower® and empower® Express?

empower^® express is a license model consisting of the empower^® software and a complete design and support service by a leading Microsoft Office design agency. empower® express has almost the same functional scope as empower^®, only the central corporate design settings cannot be changed by the users. Such changes are a part of our service and are made by the empower^® team.

From a technical point of view empower^® express is a multi-client capable cloud system (hosted in the Microsoft Azure Cloud). We manage the IT operation and you can start with empower^® Express without the involvement of your IT. An installation of the empower^® client software is possible on PC’s without admin rights.

With empower^® Express there is a quick setup procedure: If your master template is set up correctly from the technical perspective, we can directly integrate it (with slight corrections, if necessary) directly into the empower® system. Alternatively, we replace technically non-optimal PowerPoint master templates with a standard PowerPoint master during the initial setup, incorporate your corporate design guidelines (fonts, sizes and color design) and use this master template for the empower® system.

Compared to the dedicated empower^® systems, empower^® Express contract can be terminated monthly. You can get the full empower^® experience at a low risk.

Is my Corporate Design integrated in empower®? Can I change it myself?

If you choose our empower^® Slides option your Corporate Design (master template, color scheme and permitted fonts and sizes) are integrated in empower® by our team and can be changed on request.

If you choose our empower^® Library option, you are provided with a folder for you to save your content to. There are no additional costs to set up either option.

What happens if I want to equip more than 9 users with empower® Express?

You can equip with empower^® Express as many users as you like.

What do I have to do to switch to a dedicated system?

Please contact us directly. We will be happy to advise you on your options, guide you through the commercial or technical process and support you during the initial setup.

Is empower® compatible with other Add-Ins (e.g. think-cell)?

Yes, empower^® is compatible with all common Add-Ins such as think-cell.

Which library content can I manage myself?

You can upload as many presentations, slides and other elements in the "Company Library" area as you like.

Do I necessarily need a corporate design or is there standard content that I can use?

No, you do not necessarily need your own corporate design. You can also simply work with the empower^® standard templates (master template, slide templates, standard definitions for colors & font).

Can I switch later to a dedicated empower® system?

From 10 users on, a change to a dedicated empower^® environment is also possible. Please note that this requires a one-time initial setup and a separate empower^® contract (minimum contract period is 1 year).

How much does the change to a dedicated system cost?

The annual empower^® license fees are based on the number of empower^® users. For the migration of your existing data (masters, slides and presentations) from your existing empower^® express slide library a one-time migration fee of 500 € will be charged.

More licenses mean lower prices. How does that work?

As the number of licenses increases, you pay a lower base price. E.g the calculation for empower Slides & Charts

Users	EUR monthly pricing

10	28,89
15	28,36

How do I cancel my 30-day trial period without incurring any costs?

You can cancel your trial period at any time. Just send us a short e-mail to express@empowersuite.com.

Are there discounts for multiple users?

Yes, as the number of licenses increases, you pay a lower base price for empower® express.

What is the payment method?

You can pay for empower® express monthly or annually in advance via credit card, direct debit via our website. In additional you can also pay via PayPal or monthly invoice but this must be arranged offline.

I am a reseller and want to order empower® express for my customer. Is it possible?

Yes, this is possible. Please note that empower® cannot grant any discounts for resellers, the direct contact between the end customer and the empower® team has to be established in any case and the customer has to accept or sign the empower® Terms & Conditions. If these conditions are fulfilled, empower® can send the invoices to the reseller.

How does the setup process work and how long does it take?

Once you sign up for any empower^® Express service you will be sent a welcome email which will detail what we require from you. Most likely it will be the PowerPoint template(s) you wish to include in the system. The email also includes an invitation to a kick-off call where we explain exactly what the customization process will involve and how quickly we can set you up. We aim to get new users set up on the system as soon as possible but allow up to three working days.

What do I need to set up empower® Express?

We need your master templates and corporate design specifications (color & font).

Can you also design new slides or new master templates for me? How expensive is that?

We definitely can. Our design partners at Right Aligned have been helping create professional slides and presentations at companies like Goldman Sachs, KPMG, Deutsche Bank (among others) for over 20 years. Signing up to empower^® Express means you will get heavily discounted hourly rates. If you are interested, please ask during your kick-off call.

Thereafter they will offer regular training on empower features and the extensive library content available to you.

What if I do not have a real PPT Master?

We will get a new corporate design the short/medium term, can these changes be adopted later?

Yes, changes to your corporate design specifications can be incorporated into empower^® (on request, no additional costs).

Are there free trainings?

Absolutely. We want you to understand empower as well as we do, so you will love it and know what you are missing out on when you don’t have it.
