The Best PowerPoint Plugins and Add-Ins to Enhance Your Workflow in 2024

Here’s a compilation of some of the best PowerPoint add ins and plugins that can enhance your presentations and workflow in 2024. We’ve included free and paid plugins and reviewed some lesser-known PowerPoint plugins so that you don’t have to waste time testing them yourself.

Before we move on with the list, here’s a quick section on everything related to using plugins on PowerPoint.

Where Do I Find Plugins and Add-ins for PowerPoint?

You can search for Add-ins in PowerPoint by clicking on Insert and then on My Add-ins. This opens a pop-up box where you can check out the add-ins you’ve already added. Click on STORE to access the add-ins store and search for what you’re looking for.

Emoji Keyboard for PowerPoint

This add-in makes it easier for you to use emojis in your presentations. It’s really easy to use this plugin to add emojis. There are over 1300 emojis to choose from. You can add emojis either as text or as images in different sizes. This plugin is a must-have if you frequently use emojis in your presentations. This plugin was created by Patrick Buergin, who you can find on Twitter.

Icons by Noun Project

This plugin lets you choose from a massive collection of high-quality icons and add them to your presentation with just a click. To try out this template, you do not even need to sign up. The icons are all of good quality. However, sadly, only 100 free icons are available without subscribing to their pro plan. I think that’s too little. There should have been more free icons available. But other than that, this is a solid plugin.

The plugin can be used without signing up and is very easy to use. It’s 100% worth the money if you decide to purchase the pro plan.

Premast Plus

 

This is a handy PowerPoint add-in that you can use to quickly add presentation templates, photos, and GIFs in a few clicks. With a simple sign-up procedure (they don’t even ask you to confirm your email ID), you’ll be able to use the plugin right away. There are many free icons, images, GIFs from Giphy, shapes, and templates that you can use right away. Some of these are only available once you get a subscription. But overall, this is a solid plugin.

Solid plugin, with no hassle sign up. Lots of icons, graphics, and templates to choose from.

Wooclap

 

This add-in lets you turn your presentations into an interactive and dynamic learning platform. It’s great for adding multiple choice questions, polls, fill in the blanks, questionnaires and so much more. This is great for teachers who are looking to make their presentations more interactive and engaging. After a quick sign-up, you can create events on their website, which will automatically load into your slides when you select them. Overall, it’s very easy to use, but the first time I used it I was a little confused. So not the most user friendly add-in I should say. But once I figured stuff out, things became so much easier.

Great add-in for classroom interactive presentations.

Mentimeter – Interactive Presentations

This is another add-in that helps you create interactive slides. I remember a similar add-in being used in a meeting I attended a few years ago. You can create polls and add other interactive elements. This plugin offers 15 different ways to visualize your audience’s input, including options like open-ended questions, word clouds, Q&A, spider charts, and more.

The ability to share and save documents to Microsoft 365 apps like SharePoint Online, Microsoft Teams, and OneDrive directly from PowerPoint eliminates the need for constantly switching between different apps. The add-in lets you specify metadata, required properties, and retention labels, ensuring accurate document classification which makes it easier to find them later.
