Frequently Asked Questions
What is Xtensio?
Xtensio is a creative collaboration platform to design living documents, work together with internal and external teams, and flexibly share your work as digital presentations, responsive web pages or exportable PDF or PNGs.
What's a folio?
Folios are full-screen digital presentations, responsive web pages and exportable PDF or PNGs all-in-one. A folio can be anything from a brief business strategy exercise to a full-length presentation. Start with one of our templates, or create anything you need with the blank slate tool.
Your folios are live pages that you can edit and collaborate on with colleagues, clients and other key players. All of your changes—from dragging and dropping modules, to editing graphs, to changing colors— will save and sync instantly across devices. Here’s more on Making a Folio.
Do I have limits on the number of templates I can try?
No. You can try all of our free templates with any of our plans. The limitations are only on your active folios.
Is my data private and secure?
Yes. All Xtensio plans include 128 bit SSL encryption and backups to ensure your data is secure. Your work belongs to you. Your folios are private unless you decide to share them or make them public. Here’s more on the range of sharing options on Xtensio, from completely private to public.
Is Xtensio really free?
Yes. You will never be asked to provide credit card information for Xtensio’s free account.
What would I get by upgrading to a premium plan?
By upgrading to our premium plans, you’ll create a private and branded workspace with your own URL where you, your team members and guests can create and collaborate on multiple presentations and documents, 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 buyer persona template for?
User (or buyer) personas represent real, living people who engage with your product. Filling out the ux persona template allows you to create your ideal user “types.” These personas will help you in all decision making, from product features to the tone of your taglines.
Do you have any examples I can use?
Yes! We have a couple of customer persona examples above that you can use as a starting point for your own. If you find a style you like, use it for your inspiration. Just click on one of the examples further up on this page to save it as a folio and start editing with your own content.
How do I find the info needed to fill out the user persona?
Your personas should represent real, living people who engage with your product. We suggest talking to consumers before completing this template. Send emails, hop on calls, run surveys and questionnaires. Record and synthesize information. Find more tips for filling out the customer persona Template here.
Can I add colleagues to edit my user persona?
Yes! On the Business plan, you can invite as many people as you’d like to collaborate on your user persona, ensuring your whole team is aligned. Here’s more on real-time collaboration.
How do I share my user persona?
When you’re ready to share your buyer persona, choose between presenting it as a full-screen digital slideshow, sending it as a responsive web link or exporting your persona as a PDF or PNG (premium feature). All of your share options are located at the top right of your edit screen. Learn more about the different ways to share folios in this tutorial video.
Do you have other business strategy exercises?
We do! There are a number of different business strategy templates, examples and resources to guide you through the process of establishing and growing your business. Check out our Strategy toolbox, our Marketing toolbox and our UX Design toolbox to find more tools and resources.
