What do you like best about Keynote?

Very good if you want a presentation that “pops” and is unique. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keynote?

Because keynote is an Apple product, the UI is un-familiar to the average person. Some customization is also harder to handle compared to PowerPoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Keynote solving and how is that benefiting you?

When I used keynote, I used it on presentations that I wanted to make an impression with. I feel there is no need to use it for basic presentations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Keynote?

Keynote is perfect for creating sleek and professional looking presentations on your mobile device, and because it is fully integrated with iOS, you can start designing on your Macbook, and pick up where you left off on your iPhone. Keynote is so user-friendly that someone with little or no experience creating presentations could jump right in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keynote?

One of Keynotes biggest pros is also one of it's biggest cons: Keynote can be used seamlessly across all of your Apple devices, but it can also *only* be used on iOS devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A great presentation tool for those familiar with, and frequently using iOS. For those who are not Apple users, you may want to stick with the tried and true Powerpoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Keynote solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keynote makes it quick and easy to create impressive presentations - perfect for the busy professional on the move. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Keynote?

There are many things to love. Everything from creating elegant presentations for school and work, with or without transition animations to actually creating stunning graphical elements for mock-ups is just up the alleyway for a lot of individuals looking for a tool that fulfills a lot of needs. Blessed with simplicity in the UX and UI at its foundation, not only does Apple Keynote have next to no impact of battery life, but it's a tool for just about everybody. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Keynote?

In certain niche cases, a lot of the more advanced tools or options feel sort of undocumented and require a little bit of searching to find. Additionally, certain tools that modify shapes to ones content are not as fleshed out as other applications on the market, but this is really a non-issue, as the price-tag of "FREE" justifies a lot of its shortcomings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Keynote:

If you are looking for a base tool at your arsenal that acts as a filler of sorts. Being available for use in a ton of use cases, it is worth utilizing provided you have a Mac and it is well worth anyones time to learn; especially since one can learn its toolset very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Keynote solving and how is that benefiting you?

Be it creating advanced, animation required presentations for class or business, or just visuals to get the point across; the main feature set of Keynote, primarily being a Microsoft PowerPoint competitor, it does presentations well. It also is a potent tool for UX designs. When designing a mock-up for designers and developers to incorporate, one can create quite amazing results with the options one has at their disposal. No complaints there.

A more uncommon use of this tool is its ability to convert files from one file-format to another. It has a nice array of options. Some types I convert my projects to the most are the .key, .pdf, .pptx formats, with varying quality options, password protections and whatnot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
