Most teams already build internal announcements, safety reminders, and culture updates as PowerPoint slides. The challenge is getting those slides in front of every employee, not just the people who open an email. Turning a PowerPoint presentation into a screensaver is one of the fastest ways to do that, and it works especially well as a corporate screensaver rolled out across an entire organisation rather than a single desktop.
The manual way: a native PowerPoint screensaver
You can save a PowerPoint file as a .scr file and set it as your Windows screensaver from Personalisation settings. It works, but only on the machine where you set it up. There is no way to push updates to other desktops, no scheduling, no targeting by department, and no proof that anyone actually saw it. For a single desk, that is fine. For reaching a whole company, it is not.
The corporate way: PowerPoint slides, pushed to every screen
ConnectedCompany turns the same PowerPoint file into a managed corporate screensaver that reaches every workstation, not just one. Upload the slides, images, or video, assign them to the whole company or a specific team, and the content lands on every assigned screen within minutes through a silent background agent, no IT rollout, no per-device setup.
Three steps to your first PowerPoint screensaver
- Create in PowerPoint: design the screensaver in the tool your team already knows, slides, a slideshow, or video.
- Target your teams: assign it to everyone, one department, or a custom group.
- It appears everywhere: the sync agent pushes it to every assigned screen within minutes.
Is a PowerPoint screensaver actually effective for internal comms?
Yes. Internal email open rates hover around 20 to 30 percent, while a desk worker looks at a screen for 7 or more hours a day. A screensaver built from a PowerPoint file sits in that idle time and gets seen without competing with an inbox. Combined with wallpaper and lock screen messaging, it becomes a channel with delivery rates above 98 percent, with reporting that proves who saw what and when.
