As you start to use it more, you will fall in love with it. Pros \- Ease of use - They have intelligently separated out design from the content. You write your content at one place and Slidebean automagically creates a unique design for you based on that content. - Present on the web itself. - Send ppt as a web link which removed the need for a compatible version of ppt on the recipient machine. Cons Frankly nothing. They can do with more templates. Review Source Jerry S. owner Mental Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "excellent and portable web based presentation tool" August 7, 2020 5.0 excellent way to make your presentations look great, but also be web based and usable anywhere. Pros If you need to do a presentation, but aren't sure if the audience will have a compatible software program, but know they will have access to a modern web browser, slidebean can be an invaluable tool. Presentations are very easy to create and are hosted by slidebean. They can be played back through a web-browser (you just need the address for the presentation). The presentations look great and are easy to deploy Cons I didn't have any problems creating or deploying a presentation. I am not aware of any negatives in using this software.

They owe us hours of work which we have paid for and we have emailed them countless times and have received no response. Cons We had a terrible experience with \[sensitive content hidden\] from Slidebean. She never replied to emails, and we are still due hours of work that we have paid for but have been unable to get a response from her or anyone from Slidebean on a refund or the delivery of our paid for hours. We would have to chase multiple times in order to set up calls. It felt like we were doing their job for them. If anyone from Slidebean reads this, please either refund us for the hours you have not delivered on, or send us the work you have promised us. We have tried every other way of trying to contact you, ccing every email we have from your company and have not received any response. If you are thinking about using Slidebean, definitely think again. Stole our money and our time.

You can get your slideshows from idea to completion in minutes. I like that it has 2 parts, the content part and the design part. You just enter all the information and visuals and get your design. "Arrange with AI" button rearranges the slides automatically if you want another layout options. Really impressive. Cons There is nothing I dislike about this software.

April 17, 2018 4.0 Cloud slide presentation development at a good value for the cost of the product. Pros Love the easy edibility within the slide software. Pre-made templates to choose from that makes editing a professional presentation easy and accessible. They have the ability to share and integrate with ease. Cons The platform is newer, at least it seems to be, and that has caused the platform to seem not fully built out yet. The roadmap will include far more pre-made templates and integration features, however right now the value for money is on point with where they are in the development process. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Director de Carrera de Mercadotecnia y Comunicación Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent app to create visual and dynamic Presentations " February 6, 2018 5.0 Excellent app to create very professional and visual presentations, with the possibility to share with other people and track it. Pros Excellent app that I love to create professional presentations. The Best think is that you can add a tracking when you share it, so you can check who opens it and who doesn't. I like all the templates and very visual dashboard. Cons I don't like that the number of templates is very limited and the number graphics, too. I miss the possibility to use a free picture library to implement and get better results. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder & Ceo Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great idea but lots of improvement needed." May 30, 2017 2.0 Pros It is really simple to create a presentation and very easy to make any changes to your slides within the platform. But overall their systems lack a lot of necessary functions and is filled with issues. Cons Cant change font size, the only option is to either super script or sub script. Pay as you go power point slide is completely useless as it only exports an image to Power Point and you can't edit it! Based on the limited functionalitiy of the platform don't waste your money on this service Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Visual Designer Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "An amazing online presentation tool for use " March 22, 2018 4.0 The great advantage slidebean has is the insights which It can show it for the presentation. Pros Slidebean is an awesome online presentation tool which I think is more geared towards Pitch Desks. I had an opportunity to create a pitch desk with one of my clients and the option to see the insights of the presentation is very good to have. Cons They could include various themes and an option to create our own theme, right now there isn't many themes which personally like.

I was able to quickly find a pitch deck suitable for my needs. It was easy to download and edit. No issues at all. Pros Do you want to pitch your idea to a client? You need a stunning pitch deck. If you don't have the budget to hire a graphic designer, slidebean is the perfect solution for you. Slidebean provides amazing pitch deck templates that you can easily modify. You don't have to spend hours and hours creating your slides. Just grab a beautiful slide deck and make the changes. It's very easy to use and affordable in comparison with hiring a graphic or slide designer. Cons The only con I found is that if you really want to have a unique pitch deck that nobody else is using, Slidebean won't probably work for you. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Chief Executive Officer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Really easy-to-use alternative to PowerPoint" July 10, 2018 5.0 Pros You can instantly apply design changes across the full presentation and continue to do so, until you find a design which is a good fit for you. Also the native image bank is a big plus. Cons I can't think of anything which I don't like. Only, if you need to control and edit every single bit of your graphic elements, then SlideBean will not be for you. Review Source JK Joseph K. social media manager Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Slide Over PowerPoint" July 30, 2021 5.0 Pros Presentations on the go, no hustle no complicated slides or creating slides manually since they have ready made templates which makes it easy for me and my time to set up a pitch deck in minutes. Love how the AI analyses and automatically designs my slides, i also get fantastic analytics. Cons Would like to see more templates especially one geared towards agency use. Review Source CA Camille A. Web Developer Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Creat great-looking presentations. A total time saver!" April 30, 2018 5.0 Pros \- It is a great replacement of PowerPoint. - Save time creating presentations. - Share and collaborate with others. - Can be exported to PDF. Cons \- Needs more flexibility as we build custom slides. - Can't export to PPT. - Needs greater quality templates library. Review Source Response from Slidebean April 30, 2018 Thanks for the awesome review! PPT export was recently added :) RS Richard S. Professor Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Really easy to use!" December 1, 2016 4.0 So, I'm not very good with design, presentations or any of that. And with Slide bean I managed to make really clean slides, that actually look good, and it was easy. Overall very happy with the service, fast and simple. Pros Again, it's easy and to the point, great for quick slides, fast and simple presentations, I used it for some lectures no issues really. Cons It needs to grow a bit, I could use some other features, and maybe more kinds of elements, or an app to handle things on the phone, but as problems go, nothing mayor. Review Source ZM Zachary M. Owner Food Production Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Boom! Templates are old news!" April 4, 2019 5.0 Pros So, Slidebean is sort of hard to describe. You know that presentation you spent a really long time organizing, and could never quite get all the content organized in a way that looked just right? Slidebean seeks to solve this, and does a damn fine job, if not 100% perfect. The content you include dictates the layout and Slidebean gives you several options that all look great. Very, very useful. Cons A lot of the templates can start to blend together when trying to choose between them as a starting point - all have a very modern look, I wish there were a few more creative/artsy options. Review Source MB Maria B. student Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "very good, with this program I can make attractive online presentations very quickly." June 23, 2018 4.0 Pros It is extremely easy to use and allows you to create a presentation in a short time compared to other presentation programs. It has beautiful templates that allow you to guide yourself in the creation of presentations. The best thing that you have is the speed with which the changes are applied when you are creating or editing the presentation, also the loading time of the presentations is very fast. Cons has no free plan, only offer a trial period of 2 weeks and with most of the important functions blocked, you can not download the presentation in any of the popular formats such as ppt or pdf, nor can you share on social networks unless to subscribe to some of the payment plans.

Very happy! Review Source BI Belinda I. Customer Service Representative Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Saves time! " October 23, 2018 4.0 This is a great software to create your pitch decks, has a lot of templates. Pros If you constantly have to send files, presentations to customers, it literally saves a lot of time. Cons If you have to edit a file, this would not work for you at all. Review Source LR Lindy R. CEO Executive Office Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great presentation templates" November 20, 2018 5.0 Pros I love the templates they have set up for different types of presentations. They all look very slick and professional. Cons I found that adding or subtracting from a template meant I had to find a way to change the slides so they continued in the colour order. Sometimes the colours weren't there. Review Source JV Joshua V. Soap Opera Sequence Expert Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Slidebean is like power point, only beautiful and engaging enough to make people stick around." June 28, 2021 5.0 The business problem I'm solving with Slidebean is how to make visually boring presentations much more energetic, and interesting. So far Slidebean is the best solution i've found that can do this. If they focus more on webinars they will be perfect. Pros What I love most about Slidebean is how beautiful, and interesting it makes your presentations look like. When you need to keep people engaged for 30 minutes, or 1 hour you need your slides to look as interesting and desirable as possible. Powerpoint simply won't do anymore. One look at Slidebean's youtube channel will show you just how engaging Slidebean presentations really are. They dogfood their product to a highly effective degree. Cons What I like least about this software, is there isn't enough documentation or tools to make using Slidebean extremely easy with Zoom webinars. It seems to focus mostly on pitching to VC's to get funding as a Startup company. However, I don't think most businesses are in that position. They should focus new features on making webinars easier to rollout. Review Source CT Camille T. Pitch Deck Designer Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I absolutely LOVE Slidebean!" May 8, 2020 5.0 I was an early adopter of Slidebean. I have gone through several versions and called customer support many times. The team is great and very helpful. The software is simply the best out there. Pros Slidebean is easy to use and has beautiful graphic design elements. I am not a graphic designer, but Slidebean makes me look great. I also love the analytics. With the analytics, my clients can see which investors viewed their decks and how long they viewed each slide or whether the investor finished the deck. Great info to know. Cons I wish I could integrate private videos into the decks. Right now, you must upload your videos to Vimeo, YouTube or Wistia and set them to "public" which is not ideal for my clients wishing to protect information.

Switched from [Microsoft PowerPoint](https://www.capterra.com/p/141633/PowerPoint/) Better graphic design elements Review Source Mike M. Founder & CEO Package/Freight Delivery Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Buggy and terrible customer support" September 18, 2017 1.0 Pros Some of the App templates they have are very nice The animations of graphics are tastefully done and the graphics are fairly good. Cons Graphs dont allow you to adjust the range which often leads to a lot of blank space. No way to adjust the width of text or objects. Lining up multiple objects on a page is imprecise and the tools they offer to help have a major flaw. The price for what you get is waayyyyyy too high. But the cardinal sin is the awful customer service. I accidentally deleted a graphic from the AirBNB slide deck and tried to return it using ctrl z which did not work. I spent a few hours trying to figure it out on my own and eventually put a request out to the "live chat" support. It took them two days to respond and when they did, rather than acknowledge their software is buggy and offer one of several easy fixes I suggested they said "I'm sorry Mike, but as this template was used as a courtesy, there's no way to open up a new one. (confused emoji) If you are interested in upgrading your plan to have access to this and the other templates, I'd be happy to help you out. An automatic prorate would be applied. " Are you a new user that made a mistake using our flawed software? Well pay us more so you can remake your presentation from scratch! And enjoy our useless emojis! I think I'll pass and I encourage others to as well Review Source Melanie E. Founder Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "This Has Become My Go To Tool for Pitch Decks " April 6, 2019 5.0 The quality of the appearance of our pitch decks has improved 200%. And while it's what you say in that pitch that matters most first impressions and apparences count and the fact the agency has won jobs over bigger companies has at least a little to do with this. Pros Pitches are a part of daily life for my agency, and although over the years we have tried a number of pitch deck softwares when I found Slidebean I haven't used anything else since. It's hard to pick a best feature. It's not a steep learning curve to begin using it successfully, the design templates are great and the customer service is fantastic. A favorite tool for sure. Cons There's nothing to not like here. If you need to present pitch decks and do not maintain a full time design department to do it for you then this is the best tool out there. Review Source Response from Slidebean April 9, 2019 Melanie thanks for taking the time to write this review. We are more than happy to know that you found value in Slidebean. We wish you the best! DL David L. Owner E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Spice Up Your Presentation Slide" April 19, 2019 4.0 I use Slidebean to prevent the others from using my slide if I email it to them. Pros \- simple to use - ready templates to speed up or inspire your slide design process. - sharing with the option to lock with a password so you can track who has viewed your slide - analytic although pretty redundant to me. Maybe someone else will find it useful. - lately they have added in A.I functionality to spice up your presentation Cons Hmm... I have a strange love-hate feeling towards this app. On one hand, it feels simple to use but on the other, I blame it for not having enough flexibility. Once you have chosen a template, there really isn't much room inside for you to play with. So ended up you'll feel like there are a few slides having the layout you like while another few only so so. Because I need to put in a lot of graphic in my presentation, I hope to see more options for showcasing those graphics. The team need to increase their template options to cater for people that have different needs instead of focusing on Startup Pitch Deck only. Review Source Response from Slidebean June 14, 2019 Hi David, thanks for your honest review. This is going to help us improve Slidebean. WL Wendy L. Director of Operations Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Site has numerous bugs and is very unstable" October 22, 2019 1.0 Pros Professional existing templates and easy to use. Cons The website is very very unstable. I am creating a deck for my company so I paid for an annual membership. For the past week, I used this platform everyday. There are some small bugs here and there such as the table chart etc. I understand that this is a newer platform and the team is ironing out issues. That is understandable. But then comes today. OMG. The website wiped out all my images and logos. Spoke with a support person. They said it is because Amazon Web Services is having issues so the images cannot load properly. I am pretty sure there is some sort of bug However, not only was the image not loading, it was doing crazy things. I tried to upload a picture, it turned my slide background black! I cannot export my presentation to PPT or anything. The representative whom I spoke with kept saying this is a AWS issue. He couldn't tell me when the issue can be fixed. These issues rendered my deck completely unusable. I am pretty sure this is not just an AWS issue. I like Slidebean until now. I didn't appreciate how they kept blaming everything on AWS and did not give me an estimate on when the problem will get resolved. Its unprofessional. Review Source Jaco S. Founder Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Take the pain out of "Send me your deck"" February 1, 2020 5.0 If you have ever been the founder of a startup you would know that presenting your business idea to possible investors becomes part of your everyday life. Slidebean gives me the tool to easily change a presentation to suit the conversation I'm about to have. I also use Slidebean for product demos and business calls. Pros Slidebean is super easy to use but the best part is how "slick" your presentations look. PLUS you can share and track your presentation with others. Awesome! Cons There is nothing to not like about this software. Review Source Similar Products Featured ## Related categories [Presentation](https://www.capterra.com/presentation-software/)
