    Depends on the needs of the user, if they are just refreshing Slides, and updating basic elements, I believe Microsoft Powerpoint Online is sufficient. It still relies on a regular internet connection, but backs up immediately to whichever service you are using for cloud storage. For advance users, designers, or people trying to have more management in their decks I believe desktop is the way to go.

    • Running a presentation from PowerPoint online has been a disappointing experience. Things just don't react as smoothly as they do in the offline version because we're relying on sometimes iffy internet connections.
    • Video does not play well when it's embedded and played through the online version.
    • Downloading a PPT file that was created online creates almost no inconsistencies, but in my experience uploading a PPT to the online version that was created offline sometimes does create issues with fonts and formatting.

    I would rather change to other tool if I could. Microsoft Powerpoint Online was top-down forced without a real technical (maybe financial only) reason, and I think the product itself looks like a poor adaptation of the offline version. In my experience, it cannot be properly used in real time collaboration, can't handle large media (images/videos), has low performance even for a single user, it is a nightmare.

    Its about as usable as regular powerpoint to the normal user. The lack of some tools is fine and will go unnoticed. When presenting, you'll see animations may lag behind a bit, so I still recommend downloading to desktop to share content in a presentation once it is finalized.

    I have used Prezi also in my last company along with Microsoft Powerpoint Online. But I feel that Prezi has also good features like designs, frames, themes etc but this tool is really complex to use as compared to Microsoft Powerpoint Online

    • It has made it easier for the training to be well handled and transitioned to the work-at-home life faster.
    • a lot of people is used to the installed version of PowerPoint, the online version is a familiar look and feels to the times when we were working from the office, which made the transition faster and easier for everyone.
