Pros

There’s nothing special regarding this product - I prefer competitors or even staying with PowerPoint.

Cons

There’s just to much of a gap. Feels like this development did not go through the vetting process. So much to desire for.

Slide is a software that greatly helped me with my presentations that I had to do. It allowed me to present well-organized and harmonious work.

Pros

What I like about Slides is that the interface is user-friendly, real-time collaboration allows users to access the same document simultaneously in real time. The online storage enables me to access my data from any device and work on it.

Cons

The downside for me is the fact that they have integrated Google Workspace. I sometimes find myself confused between the two.

Slides has been great for our business to build pitch decks and collaborate effectively on projects.

Pros

The collaborating that Google Slides allows for is second to none. It's critical to be able to still communicate ideas effectively while all working remotely and Slides allows for this is happen seamlessly.

Cons

There are a few minor formatting aspects with Slides I wish could be improved upon. But for the most part you can't beat the value of the product.

I used this software many times to create several presentations for work etc. During my many years of use of this product, I was able to master the various tools put in place and really take the software in hand. In addition, this software well supports sending attachments, there are never problems of file corruption etc. It requires a little control, but once you are comfortable with it, you are capable of great things. However, it is sometimes less simple to use compared to its competitors who are sometimes more playful in use.

Pros

Advantages: The Googles Slides software is a simple to use, easy to understand software for creating presentations with playful interfaces. This software is dominant on the market, and is much superior to its competitors by its polyvalences but also by the large number of tools available. Users can create slideshows, presentations online, by inserting photos or various documents, which makes for truly unique slides.

Cons

Googles Slides is quite complex when you want to make the most of its features. It could be much more playful, easier to understand as a whole in order to be able to use it in the best of ways. It is absolutely not good to create original illustrations, you should create them in suitable software ( Photoshop, etc...) and then import them in Slides.

Pros

First used it for my presentation in school and I promise I never used it before that presentation and our teacher told us to present about a topic and that day I didn’t know what to do so I downloaded slides and it was so easy to use and I did pretty good and got 96 on presentation. The best part about it is the theme I promise it’s the best thing. You can decorate slides which I mean everyone wants to do to make their slides pretty.

Cons

There can’t be any bad thing that you can hate about this app. Like this app is literally everything for presentation.

I have a very positive view of Google Slides. The platform is clean and rich in features. There's no digital clutter on the dashboard as you build your presentation. Easy to use with immediate value.

Pros

I enjoy how easy it is to use Slides. The price is also easy on the eyes and my pockets. It's free to use.

Cons

Some companies prevent their employees from using Google products. If you fall in love with Slides and forced to separate, users may experience withdrawals.

I love using slides because of its ease of use and the fact that it is cloud based which makes me able to access it from anywhere.

Pros

I prefer to use Slides for preparing presentations over other softwares because it is free to use and works online. Also, as it is a cloud-based program so I do not need to install or have anything installed on my PC which makes it very accessible. Also it has a super easy interface and works on all computer and smartphone platforms.

Cons

To use Slides, a strong internet connection is required. It is not highly format able as it has fewer effects and themes to choose from. Also you must have a Google account in order to use slides.

Overall, I have LOVED using Slides. I was looking for an effective alternative to both Keynote (Apple) and PowerPoint (Microsoft), and Slides has proven to be an excellent option! I love how easy it is to access and edit my presentations from both my phone and my computer.

Pros

I love how easily I can create effective presentations that help me deliver sermons on a twice-weekly basis. I preach every Sunday and Wednesday, and Slides helps me tremendously in this endeavor! Also, I love how I can access and change the presentations through my phone as well as my computer, as the presentations are saved within my Google Drive.

Cons

I wish there were more template options available. However, the customization features enables me to ultimately create any kind of slide presentation I would like.

Keynote kept giving me problems, and I discovered that I could access slides and edit presentations from my phone, and I was sold.

Alternatives considered

Reasons for choosing Slides

Again, the ease of editing the slide presentation within the "cloud" of the Google Drive was one of the most appealing features.
