How to set up your Design Add-On as an Admin?
Before getting started
We need you to complete the QAT (Quality Alignment Test) before moving forward. This way we can be sure SlideHub has your PowerPoint design guidelines and preferences documented.
If you wish to know how to carry on this process, you can find each step in this article.
Control your company’s costs
When your company starts to use the Design Add-On it is natural to want to control costs. There are multiple ways to configure this. You can read more about this here.
