If you thought Logitech’s MX Creative Console was just for video editors, think again. Today, the company rolled out new plug-ins that bring tactile, physical controls right to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Shifting From Creative to Corporate

The hardware now officially supports mainstream office software, letting you map specific Microsoft functions directly to its physical buttons and dials. It turns a device built primarily for Lightroom and Premiere into a heavy hitter for the corporate cubicle.

Instead of memorizing obscure keyboard combos, you can now twist the console's dial to smoothly zoom across a massive Excel grid. A quick tap of a custom button might instantly apply your favorite heading style in Word, while another seamlessly triggers a specific slide transition during a live PowerPoint pitch.

This push into everyday workplace apps isn't limited to Microsoft's suite, either. Logitech is also pointing the MX ecosystem at popular collaborative workspaces like Slack and Notion.

The Workflow Impact

Having dedicated physical hardware saves you from constantly hunting through endless ribbon menus. Because office workers live inside these apps, shaving seconds off routine navigation and formatting tweaks easily adds up to hours saved over a standard workweek.

By steadily rolling out new plugins, Logitech is making the hardware useful for a much wider audience. The MX Creative Console has officially outgrown its creative niche to become a practical everyday tool for anyone staring at a screen.
