    "Always return to this"

    Posted 2020-11-10

    Pros: Make slides for presentations with ease. There's a ton of free and paid themes out there for you to use to make your Powerpoint presentation look really great. No one really uses them much anymore, but there are a lot of animations and effects you can do if you really wanted to. Powerpoint works for most presentation needs, whether it's for a lecture or a group project or business.

    Cons: It can be a little hard to format and arrange things sometimes. I've definitely had many nights of being frustrated over getting something to look a specific way, and sometimes still have it go wrong during the presentation by being cut off. Definitely make sure you test, test, test everything before you actually go to present.

    Overall: I've used this quite literally since I was in 8th grade way back in 2003-2004. It hasn't really changed in all that time, and it doesn't need to. It's already great as is. Some may find it dated looking, but change just for change-sake doesn't make something great. I remember when people were encouraging me to switch over to Prezi, but nobody uses that in a classroom. It's easy to make something that looks really good, and similar products, like Google Slides, just copy what Microsoft already did. Since it's a Microsoft project, there's integration with other Microsoft programs like Teams. When you put aside its age and minor issues in formatting here and there, it's pretty much everything it needs to be even now in the 2020s.

    "Nice software for creating presentations"

    Posted 2020-10-15

    Pros: - Is available both offline and on cloud.
    - Nice, sleek interface. I love the modern look.
    - Great options for adding transitions and animations to slides.
    - The clip art library is no longer available offline, which is sad.
    - Ability to share presentations via Lync is useful.
    - The new comments feature is much desirable too.

    Cons: Pricey. Honestly, it would be good to have just PowerPoint for my presentation uses, but no; I need to get the whole package! And it is overpriced.

    Overall: It does a great job of creating lovely presentations for you, but if you are looking for cheaper versions, there are other alternatives out there that does the same job.

    "Essential Tool and couldn't get by without it"

    Posted 2020-04-28

    Pros: Ubiquitous for presenting. Used for large groups and for small meetings alike. Really great editing tools also for day to day things such as quick and easy photo editing and adding graphics to a drawing.

    Cons: Once you get up into the really big PPTs (1GB presentations with hundreds of slides) it starts being a resource hog on your computer and can even occasionally crash. Otherwise it is extremely reliable.

    Overall: Use this EVERY day for my job. Presenting to groups, using for meeting presentations, even dropping a photo in to remove the background, add arrows and other simple tasks then exporting as a PDF or JPEG. Very handy tool for many applications.
