Microsoft PowerPoint Reviews & Product Details - Page 4

PowerPoint is very versatile in that you can insert videos, images, text, etc. that all can be triggered with customizable transitions. I particularly appreciate the flexibility for how I wish videos to be triggered. It is also very helpful that PowerPoint will automatically push to connected additional screens when you select presentation view so that staff and volunteers do not need to navigate the computer settings.

The biggest issue is that in order to have a video run in a slide, the PowerPoint viewer window MUST be selected. This has proven to be an issue when we need to click into OBS or a different program to monitor or change something, causing the video to stop playing. There is not a way to change this currently.***Edited on 1/15/24 - This seems to have been fixed!!!! Not sure if it's a legitimate fix or if it's "glitching" in a beneficial way but seems to have been working for several weeks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Must have for presentation, teaching, and meetings Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All good, could be better if templates can edit more easily Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's that one tool that is timeless, and has been my go to for creating presentations since school. Although many tools have come up now such as Canva, Prezi, etc., Powerpoint stays ahead in my opinion with its ease of navigation and features which range across both basic and advanced, and help in providing the most professional look.

The Morph transition feature has been one of the biggest gamechangers in my opinion, and the things you can do with it and a bit of creativity are limitless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although Powerpoint is the best for me, it could become a bit complex for beginners and hence they opt for something like a Canva, which has a lot more ready made animations and funky/quirky fonts.

Also, an Ai suggestive feature could be integrated wherein it would suggest aesthetic color schemes for various objects according to the colors already being used in the slide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Extremely user-friendly, a part of our Office Suite bundle, and the abundance of sleek templates accessible online or directly from us is fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Costly on its own or as part of the Office bundle. Recent versions appear to have some glitches, occasional freezing, but so far, there haven't been any instances of lost work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using Microsoft PowerPoint for years and it has become a staple in any presentation, projects, or even side tasks where I am brainstorming and need a visual to bring my ideas to life. It is easy to use and I would recommend it to anyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PowerPoint is compatible with the rest of the Microsoft suite. It's easy to transfer from Word or Excel to create PowerPoint slides and charts based on linked Excel tables that automatically update the presentation. It is compatible with Teams in presentation mode and provides the ability to be a virtual talking head in front of the slides during a presentation without needed a tool like OBS. PowerPoint can be used as an inexpensive image editor by creating a slide with several components, importing images, crop, recolor, remove background, etc. to use on your slide. Once the slide is complete it can easily be exported to jpg or png. Customer support is available from Microsoft through chat and you can get a callback with a M365 subscription. The OWA version of PowerPoint has a good set of basic features. There is no need to download and install PowerPoint desktop version when using the free OWA version.

PowerPoints that can take up a substantial amount of memory and take time to load. Slides with animations can be difficult to manage. There is a trade-off between using Morph transition (more slides to update in case of a change) or using Animations (more complex) to create animation-like behavior. The free on-the-web version of PowerPoint lacks in several features and to get them you must have a M365 subscription. You must have a Microsoft account to use PowerPoint.
