Frequently asked questions

What is Xtensio?

Xtensio is the quickest and easiest way for teams to create, share and manage all of their business documents together. Create pitches, sales sheets, reports, case studies, agendas and more. Add images, videos, tables, buttons and other interactive modules. Drag and drop, resize, change backgrounds, colors. Share a link. Present a digital slideshow. Export a PDF/PNG.

What’s a folio?

A folio is a live webpage, a full-screen digital slideshow presentation and an exportable PDF/PNG document all-in-one. Folios are responsive, collaborative and completely customizable.
Start from an instructional template, editable example or a blank folio to build all your business documents and presentations with the ease of a web builder. Add team members and guests to work together in real-time on the cloud. Changes instantly sync to the live version of the folio so both internal and external stakeholders are always up-to-date. Folios are the next generation of flexible documents and presentations.

How is Xtensio different from PPT, Illustrator or Word?

Unlike other presentation or document creators, Xtensio works like a web builder so you can easily drag and drop interactive content, customize the layout, and change colors, fonts, backgrounds to get professional-looking business content out the door quickly, without needing a designer.
You can collaborate with team members and guests to work together in real-time on the cloud. And the flexibility to share folios as live web links, digital slideshow presentations or exportable PDF/PNGs means you don’t have to jump between tools when creating different deliverables. Check out this page to see how Xtensio outpaces the competition.

Is my data private and secure?

Yes. All Xtensio plans include 128 bit SSL encryption and backups to ensure your data is secure. Here’s more on the range of sharing options on Xtensio, from completely private to public.

Yes. You can try out Xtensio’s simple editor and any template, including the lesson plan templates without creating an account. To save your work, collaborate with your team and access other premium features and resources, you can upgrade to premium. Plans start at $8 per month.

What would I get by upgrading to a premium plan?

By upgrading to our premium plans, you’ll have a private, branded workspace with your own URL where you, your team members and guests can create and collaborate on multiple presentations and documents.
You’ll be able to lock branding across your deliverables with the team style guide, streamline the creation process with custom templates, unlock exports, add password protection and customize individual shared links, and view folio stats to stay updated on all of your projects. Here’s more about our premium plans.

What would I use the lesson plan template for?

The lesson plan provides a detailed outline of course objectives, assignments. Both for educational and professional instructors, the template outlines readings and assignments, how the course will be taught and measured.

What are the 5 parts of a lesson plan?

Detail any and all course objectives, readings, assignments, tests, student expectations and course materials.

What is a living document?

The living course plan template allows you to instantly sync with your colleagues. Add collaborators to work together in real-time. And share the customizable link to give students instant access to the latest version of the folio – without having to send a PDF every change in schedule.

Can I add colleagues to edit the course plan template?

Yes! You can invite as many people as you’d like to collaborate on your course plan. Here’s more on real-time collaboration.

How do I share my lesson plans?

When you’re ready to share your completed course plan, present it as a full-screen digital slideshow, share it as a responsive web link or export it as a PDF or PNG.

Do you have other tools for business education?
