We have just released our new PowerPoint plugin! This time, we have made it super easy to add Mentimeter questions & polls directly to your PowerPoint presentation ✅

I agree completely. Our lecturers have spent years refining their PPT presentations. They need to be able to easily import Menti slides into their existing PPT presentation. Or better, to be able to create Menti slides from within PPT.

Improve ppt add in

There is so much lag with the ppt add in. Without the ppt add in, my team simply would not even consider mentimeter. We are using this for virtual training sessions and there is way too much push back on a new tool that requires facilitators (with varying technological skill levels) to toggle outside of their ppt and show multiple windows throughout the presentation. Our content does not upload well if we try to run them all directly in mentimeter, along with us just having far too much content to create them all and manage them in the limited capabilities of mentimeter folders. We must be able to use the mentimeter slides in the ppt plug in. The big issue is, the participant view doesn't advance when a menti slide is displayed in the ppt slide OR the ppt requires 2 clicks to advance the ppt slide, which then advances the participant's menti slide by 2 so they are then viewing the wrong question. This requires there to be a support person on the line to manually push and correct all these abnormalities, which is very difficult to manage for the volume of training sessions we are delivering. It's also very difficult to train everyone when the expected behavior (seamless integration within the ppt deck) doesn't work and is then viewed as a glitchy tool that no one is happy with.
The potential for the ppt plug in is HUGE, but the behavior needs to be consistent and reliable.
