Microsoft Powerpoint Online vs. Venngage

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.

I find it great for personal use especially when you are a visual person. As an assistant that needs a lot of organizing, it's wonderful. It helped me a lot and I usually don't require a lot of features. I also find it great for accessibility stuff, I respect that since I have a relative who has special needs. I didn't really need that specifically, but it's nice to know it was considered.

• Free to use [up to 5 GB cloud storage per person]
• No need to click the save button again and again when you make changes. Everything gets saved automatically to cloud [provided you have good network connection]

• Extremely user-friendly: simple, easy-to-follow interface really made ramping up on the offering incredibly fast and painless.
• Variety of templates: Venngage has a HUGE assortment of templates ranging from corporate reports and business decks to more visually-engaging, "fun" content such as infographics, awesome charts, and highly customizable social graphics.
• Brand-alignment: we really appreciated the opportunity to tee up our brand guidelines and have those remain on the back-end and let us apply our style guide to multiple templates instantaneously.

• 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.

• It's hard to lock graphics into place in Venngage once you create something.
• Layering is next to impossible. The feature is there but is very difficult to use and most times the user is better off copying the object over instead
• Unless you have a business account (we have a professional account- middle grade) you cannot sort and organize your infographics. This is messy and cumbersome to go through and the price difference between professional and business grade accounts was quite large.

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.

I use Venngage for a new project 1-2 times per week... I could not see using another program at this point.

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 find it very user friendly, straight to the point, and the minor issues I found wasn't really impacting on my role. So I think it would depend? but personally I find it perfect for me. There were lots of templates I could use, and they were very open to feedback and customer service was very accommodating.

I think that the attention that I get as a small business owner from Venngage is excellent. They quickly respond to questions and provide information that helps to resolve the issue that I am having.

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

We prefer Canva but feel Venngage is easier for us. In comparison to Adobe, we prefer Venngage because of the ability to have everything in one system and not have to jump around.

• 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.

• It was frustrating to be required to purchase a full month, not be able to download into PowerPoint and edit, and not be given a refund.
