Some of the best cool tools sneak out under the radar, and Microsoft Office Remote is one.\u00a0 It’s fantastic!\u00a0\u00a0 It lets you run presentations remotely from your phone.\"OfficeRemote\"<\/a>\u00a0 Yes, we know there have always been tools like this around, but Office Remote is better – it fits right inside Office and works seamlessly – we love it!<\/p>\n

The kicker is, you need Office 2013 or Office Preview 2016.\u00a0 Of course, all our client’s using Office 365 can smile, because they always have the latest version of Office!<\/p>\n

You install Office Remote here\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0and it’ll add\u00a0a taskbar into Office.\u00a0 Then you connect your phone to your PC with Bluetooth (yes, the boardroom PCs may need a Bluetooth dongle added) and you’ll need to install Office Remote from the store – (here’s the link to the Android version<\/a>) or use the taskbar icon to take you to the Windows Phone version.<\/p>\n

That’s it! Done!\u00a0 When you open the app on your phone, you’ll see a list of files open on your PC that you can control.<\/p>\n

\"OfficeRemote1\"<\/a>I’ve tested in against Excel and Powerpoint.\u00a0 In Excel, I could switch tabs, open slicers etc and manipulate our dashboards – pretty useful for those team meetings where we review performance!<\/p>\n

Then in PowerPoint, all the regular timers are available, you can move between slides, read your speaker notes and have a virtual laser pointer.<\/p>\n

It’s all just too easy! Very impressive.\u00a0 It’s worth sneaking this one out and having a go with it!<\/p>\n
