with nearpod, I can work directly from google slides using an extension. This would be a great benefit for Lumio.

Pear Deck also has an amazing add-on for Google Slides. Lumio needs to add this integration if teachers are to use this product year after year. (To edit my lessons from previous years, or even days, I have to upload and download constantly. It's simply not practical for day-to-day use).

Integrate with Google Slides via Google Slides add-on!

I love Smart Learning Suite and as far as the features and options for activities, I find it superior to Nearpod. However, I end up using Nearpod much more for lessons simply because it is available as an add-on for Google Slides, and considering that my school is a Google school and we have to use Google apps for lesson materials, this makes using Smart Learning Suite difficult. In addition, I create all of my slideshow templates in Google Slides, and it is tedious to download as a PowerPoint and import into Smart Learning Suite, especially considering it isn't editable after import. Please add this feature and you guys will truly be superior to Nearpod!

I wish I could vote for this a million times. In addition to this feature, I would like to be able to maintain the other functionalities of SLSO, such as sharing the link with teachers and students so that students can complete for homework and so forth.

It would be fabulous if SLS could be done as an Add-on in Google Slides just like with Nearpod. That way I can edit my slideshow in Google Slides and the SLS would automatically be updated as well.
