thinkcell customers in their own words
The increased efficiency and clearer communication have allowed product owners to present data and findings better, leading to improved decision-making and business results.
With thinkcell, I’m able to work almost three times faster compared to using standard PowerPoint features. It’s a massive time-saver.
I set myself high standards when it comes to the consistency and quality of how my data is presented, and thinkcell is an integral part of my daily work to fulfill this goal.
If I need 10 minutes to create a chart natively in PowerPoint, thinkcell reduces this to just 3-5 minutes.
If thinkcell were to be described in another way, it would be “the time-creating tool.” I think thinkcell is not just a convenient add-on tool for PowerPoint, but a solution that reduces the time you spend moving your hands while creating meaningful time for you to use your brain.
Collaborate with your entire organization
If your colleagues aren't using thinkcell, working together isn't a problem.
While other software for PowerPoint often relies on non-native file formats for charts, such as Flash, images, or proprietary formats, thinkcell uses only native PowerPoint charts and shapes for output. Therefore, all PowerPoint users can change the size, position and color of charts created with thinkcell.
