Can I present Slido in PowerPoint without the add-in?

We will be presenting at a conference soon and the conference will pre-load the presentation on their laptops for my session. Will they need to have the slido add-in on their laptop for me to use slido? Can I still present and have all the necessary features (especially live results from questions) work as they should if they do NOT download the extension?

Hello @teribhigol,

That’s a great and important question. The answer is yes, in order for the integration to work properly in PowerPoint, the computer presenting must have the add-in installed. If they download the add-in, you can either log in to the Slido add-in on their laptop, or if it’s easier, you can invite the AV team or whoever may be running the laptop as a co-host on your slido. That way they can log in themselves and run your Presentation (including Slido) for you.
