System Engineer Telecommunications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Power Point : Digital Era of Presentation" January 15, 2025 5.0 PowerPoint has been an invaluable tool throughout my academic and professional career. During my university years, it proved instrumental in preparing for presentations and exams, enhancing my understanding of complex topics. Today, students demonstrate remarkable proficiency with PowerPoint, often creating visually stunning and dynamic presentations that rival short films. Pros I particularly appreciate PowerPoint's animation capabilities. Incorporating dynamic transitions and effects between slides significantly enhances audience engagement and prevents presentations from becoming monotonous. Additionally, the presenter notes feature is invaluable, allowing me to maintain a smooth and confident delivery without relying solely on memorized content Cons One potential drawback of PowerPoint is the temptation to rely heavily on visual effects, which can sometimes distract from the core message. Additionally, creating visually appealing and engaging presentations can be time-consuming, especially for users with limited design experience. Review Source QS Quentin S. Dessinateur-Projeteur Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Revue - PowerPoint" January 21, 2025 5.0 Pros PowerPoint offre une large gamme de template afin de réaliser des présentation pour diverses situations (réunion, présentation de projet, plan de développement, plannifation de programme...). Sa prise en main est simple ainsi que l'insertion d'images, vidéos, sons pour harmoniser ses présentations se réalisent en quelques clics. De plus, les différentes fonctions présentent dans la barres d'outils est facile d'accès et de compréhension afin d'effectuer les tâches souhaitées. Je conseille vivement l'utilisation de ce logiciel dans tous les secteurs d'activités. Cons La création automatique de liaisons des fichiers via les images alourdit le fichier global. Cela se produit essentiellement lors d'insertion d'images CAO. Review Source Sabino Eduardo Q.

There is a lot of customization available with designs, fonts, animation, etc. There are many pre-built templates to choose from. I have colleagues who also use it to make flyers because they like the ease of design. Cons The animation process can be a bit tedious, especially if having to apply to multiple items on one slide. The pane makes it a bit easier, but it can still take some time. Review Source MB Manish B. Chartered Accountant Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I can create stunning presentation with it easily." December 26, 2024 5.0 PowerPoint has allowed me to communicate ideas in an effective way, engage my audience, and deliver meaningful presentations. I can deliver my presentation in an interactive way in a classroom or a boardroom or virtually, but in PowerPoint I can use the tools and features that can deliver my message clear and memorable. Pros For years, PowerPoint has been my go-to presentation software. I like the flexibility of everything from simple slideshows to lively presentations, with animations, transitions and media elements. Presenter view including notes and timers allow me to keep organized and present confidently. Cons The layouts available in PowerPoint are quite vast, but it can be difficult to make boat-shaking visuals if you don't have a background in presentation design. Review Source SR Sonya R.

Gets the job done and makes it look Good. Pros Ease of use. This may be because Microsoft is what is used in schools and what you are taught to use. but the friendly interface across all office products makes Powerpoint and easy product to use.

Template used Pros What I like most about Microsoft PowerPoint is the pre-made templates that we can use for any PowerPoint. I also like the help option that guides me to find any tools in the program for me to use. Cons There isn't anything specific that I dislike about the Microsoft PowerPoint app other than I'm not able to create my own template, so therefore I have to use a pre-made template and sometime it is pretty commonly used already. It would be great to have a guide or quick tips to teach us how to create our own unique templates. Review Source MK Max K. Business Owner Consumer Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "PowerPoint: not really easy to use" July 27, 2025 5.0 I find interesting to have so many possibilities to create presentations; the price is affordable, but not super easy to use either. Pros I like the price, which I find okay, the editing tools and the templates, even if some of them are not dynamic. Cons The program is not easy to use to make nice presentations. I don’t think the problem is about motion design or graphics skills, it’s just not simple. Review Source GL Giuseppe L. Tech Coordinator Primary/Secondary Education Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Helps me remain orderly with my notes" June 8, 2025 5.0 Pros I am able to create tidy and attractive business reports using PowerPoint.

Financial Advisor Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy showtime, bulky file weight" May 4, 2025 4.0 Overall, PowerPoint feels like a stage light that switch on fast and let you move the props how you like. Good for daily pitch decks and training slides Pros I love the canvas freedom—drag shapes, drop pics, add tiny motion, and everything answer right away. Slide Master help set style in one breath, and the design ideas panel throw layouts that save time when brain is empty Cons What bite me later is the weight: add big pictures or embed videos and the file grow heavy, start open slow, sometimes crash before saving.
