What do you like best about SlideShare?

It is quick and simple use.

Simply login with your LinkedIn profile, hit upload and enter in the 5-6 fields with a document title, description, category and keywords, and you're good to go. As you type in the information you will see the possible virality that this document will experience.

Documents then can be embedded into external webpages, and are brought up very quickly on Google search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SlideShare?

I haven't really got any dislikes for this SaaS. It really is simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Its a good, quick way of uploading documents for quick visibility on Google and other search engines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SlideShare?

Slideshare is a great way to not only promote what your business is doing, but it also creates an environment to share creativity and business ideas with a network similar to Linkedin. The interface is simple by making it easy to upload your business's webinar presentations, infographics, whitepapers, PDF documents, etc. You are able to tag videos (like on youtube) so they are easily searched and can potentially grow your business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SlideShare?

Not a big fan of them not supporting jpeg images, but it is not a deal-breaker. Otherwise, SlideShare is a great resource for your business to utilize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It is a great way to promote what your business is doing and your thought leadership as a business as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SlideShare?

I used SlideShare for a presentation, in which I had to inform other classmates about it. I had never heard of the product before but it is easy to say I love it! It solves many problems that using powerpoint might have. Instead of having one access to present or share a powerpoint, you are able to access it through an unlimited number of online devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SlideShare?

I do not have any negatives about SlideShare. One thing I must say from a personal percpective is that I do not see a reason to go out of my way of powerpoint and use SlideShare. I love this product and it might be because i am lazy but I don't see myself using this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SlideShare:

I recommend to new users that they should give it a try. It is a product with realisticly no downside and you will continue to use it depending on your own prefrence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have realized that sharing powerpoints online can solve many problems for students and buisness men and women. It allows you to share a powerpoint to the public so that you can access it yourself from any device including your cell phone or you can share it privatly to a group so anyone can access it. It frees up the oppurtuinity to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy setup! I shared my first piece of content in less than 10 minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Seems like the 'help' section doesn't differentiate between the free and paid versions. Other than that, the question was still answered pretty quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SlideShare:

It's great. The product is easy to use and setup. Very helpful that it can easily integrate the social media channels. Found the finished product was still in high quality and resolution. My boss was happy that I found this solution! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Being able to share 2 types of content. I was able to share a PowerPoint and Youtube video in the same file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SlideShare?

Ease of use, good SEO benefits and a friendly/easy way to share company content, presentations, infographics, pdfs or other industry news to peers or potential leads. Embedding pieces and plugging in the proper keywords/description etc is helpful for our seo as well as getting folks familiar with seeing our brand name and educational materials. The free version is also great to utilize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SlideShare?

Nothing yet! We do not use it on a daily basis or use it to acquire leads yet, as ours is a very niche industry in finance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SlideShare:

If you're looking for a free service to get information out in the world on your brand or your industry topics, this is a great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I primarily use slideshare to get relevant content out, usually informational slides, PDFs, one-sheets or infographics to folks searching for information on that topic or pertinent questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm sure there are a number of use cases for SlideShare, but the thing I like it for the most, and for which I use it almost exclusively...is the ability to share presentations on my LinkedIn profile, embedding it there via a link from the SlideShare host. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like to see some version of the stats I see from the SlideShare website visible to me as well from within LinkedIn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SlideShare?

combines the idea of youtube and presentations, simplified approach to searching for the presentation you need. Supports major formats such as powerpoint and open office. Ability to collect sales leads through the shared community. Adopted the widely used login process of linking with facebook and/or linkedin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SlideShare?

pricing plans are rather high. The free plan is very limited in functionality requiring a subscription to even begin to use slideshare (few free features). Lacks official tablet support, just web-based page which lags! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SlideShare:

Theres a wide array of presentations available, so its perhaps worthwhile sharing (if your looking to share) your presentations. Ideally should be used in conjunction with Prezi or Sliderocket (who can create and share) and to use Slideshare to hit the wider community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
