What I don't like is that for presentations that are very large with high resolution images, videos or animations, they can be a bit slow, especially on older computers. This can cause some slides to not display correctly or a slide to scroll by without you noticing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I had no idea how to make presentations, Microsoft PowerPoint supported me with its pre-designed templates, slide masters and design ideas that helped me create presentations with a very professional look and structured in a way that was very understandable for those who saw my slides.

What do you dislike about Microsoft PowerPoint?

Although PowerPoint is relatively simple to use, inexperienced users may find its sophisticated featuers and functionalities daunting. For some users, mastering these functions might be a barrier because it takes a lot of time and effort. PowerPoint might be limited in terms of customisation even though it provides a wide selection of templates and design possibilities. Because of the software's limited selection of pre-made layouts and templates, users could find it challenging to produce really original and personalised designs.
