Genially vs. Google Slides

The main use of Genially is the creation of interactive multimedia learning modules: we start from an online linear course consisting of PowerPoint Slides, usually poorly designed, and the audio recording of the lecturer commenting these slides. We reorganise these contents to make a truly interactive experience for the learner, using interactive windows to reveal contents. Interactive questions and branching structures are used to allow learners to navigate through our content according to their own pace

Well-suited to working on presentations or PowerPoint-style documents, including setting up templated slides and working collaboratively on presentations. It's less well-suited to setting up printable documents, though I have used it for simple printable documents, you just need to remember to set the slide size to A4 (or your preferred paper size) measurements.

• You don't have a way to switch to another company template. For example, if you want to switch from light to dark theme, you can't.
• The layout of the Animations sequence is not easy to read.

The popularity for Google Slides among the casual technology tool users is so great that we are not in a position to replace this tool with anything else. Every other tool either doesn't have the popularity, or doesn't match the ease of sharing level of Slides. The training needed to learn a different tool is too great. Google Slides is very easy to pick up and master.

It took a minute for me to understand how to use the product. Normally, I can just click around and figure things out. I had more questions on if the interactive element was accessible or not.

Google Slides is very easy and intuitive for creating simple, straightforward presentations. Its limitations make for less decision making. Being part of the Google Suite makes for easy sharing and collaboration, auto-saving, and time-stamped versions/edit history. However, unlike a platform like Canva, there's no icon library, photos, graphics, or elements built-in, so if you're wanting more creative designs, you have to import or create yourself.
