Prezi’s advantage over static slides is that its interactive, zoomable canvas shows the relationship between the big picture and the fine details. The vendor’s value proposition is that this puts ideas in context, and makes them more likely to resonate, motivate, and be remembered.
For me, collaboration is very important and I give full marks to Microsoft PowerPoint. I have used Prezi but it doesn't make me feel in control of the presentation that I'm making. A simple interface, like that of Microsoft PowerPoint, helps the user feel more aligned with …
I think Microsoft PowerPoint is significantly better than other programs I have used, such as Google Slides or Prezi. It's straightforward, easy, not overloaded with design, which you can pick your own. Functionalities make sense and have just enough flexibility to avoid …
Prezi is a nice product, but just not popular enough at this point. With all our clients using Microsoft PowerPoint, we really don't have any choice as to what software we use. Microsoft really has a corner on this market.
While Prezi does have some features that Microsoft PowerPoint lacks, or are not typically used due to being more complicated than it should, Microsoft PowerPoint is more reliable and, more importantly, the staff is used to the layout and generally is more familiar with …
Prezi delivers a great presentation but takes more user understanding and commitment. Prezi is great for one presentations which involve just me. Powerpoint allows me to share globally and allow others to leverage template.
I was amazed [by] Prezi's concept and we used it for a while. But it became complicated to share, edit and use compared with Powerpoint. Besides, Powerpoint included a feature that looked like zooming [which] was the main advantage of Prezi.
Microsoft Powerpoint is the easiest presentation software to use. It has been around for so long that most people who use it today have been using it since they were in grade school. The animations, graphics, and slide options are far ahead those of their competitors.
I used PowerPoint for 3 years and I like it because it has a lot of features to organize a slide show. And we can combine text, graphics, multimedia to make a presentation. In PowerPoint presentations you can reduce the paragraph size in bullet points. I mainly use it to make …
Microsoft Powerpoint has been excellent as a platform to create slides, but over time, users have wanted something more striking and motivating that helps transmit the information so that the public captures and likes what they see. So, Prezi has been one of the best options …
As mentioned before, when it comes to presentations, there are times when Powerpoint is better to use vs. Prezi. It depends on the situation and what you plan to do with it. Generally speaking, if you are looking for a quick self-guided presentation that is media-rich, I …
We all know Powerpoint, and we know that it is a good and practical tool, but that it does not adapt to new times or new demands. With Prezi, you can perform the same tasks as with PPT and go further, to generate fun and moving presentations that are more attractive to others. …
In particular, visually I like Prezi much more, because it is more dynamic and modern. PowerPoint, being so linear, often makes it very boring to watch. And while PPT has some advantages, such as simplicity, that everyone knows about it and that you can transform your files …
This is a presentation tool similar to PowerPoint and Google Slides. I like how it feels more interactive because it allows for more logical sequencing and acknowledgment of the bigger picture. I am a middle school social studies teacher and I use and I have my student use it …
Prezi is more animated with a greater amount of detailed movement. That movement has been reported to me by students and fellow teachers to be disorienting at times so I have to be judicious when adding them in and how to use them to highlight information in the presentation.
Prezi has been the best option since the way in which the information can be transmitted is more intuitive to the rest of the presentation software. Prezi shows me that with simplicity we can achieve a lot and that in addition we should not only see the slides from a single …
Prezi is just overall cleaner and has a better brand image. Google slides and drive isn't as easy for everyone to share and access. Powerpoint is just super old school. Canva requires a lot more graphic making. Prezi is easier to use all around and is much easier to share …
Powerpoint is the classic one that everyone knows and I believe Prezi's main challenger. Powerpoint is well known, but it can be a bit boring for people. I think it may be best for adults or business meetings but for me when I work with kids, they need something that is not as …
Powerpoint is tried and true and also a great program, don't get me wrong.
I think Prezi is better when used online to collaborate with others but once you get the hang of both, it comes down to matter of personal preference of style and design, in my opinion.
[Microsoft Powerpoint] is very well suited for preaching and teaching. I find it easier to describe what I am trying to get across with a graphic. [Microsoft Powerpoint] is the most effective way to present material. I have also used it do graduation videos for our preschool. The integration of music with the graphics provides a first rate presentation.
When you have to present complex hierarchical structures, and if your audience would require navigation in and out of the hierarchy, then Prezi is a good candidate for you. But be prepared, Prezi is not as intuitive as a standard presentation tool, and it may take some time to get used to.
The "remove background" feature could be a bit more user friendly - it tends to take up too much space and you're forced to start over and over again and take smaller areas to adjust which takes up quite a bit of time.
I could use some more design templates with less feminine features like flowers and swirls. More industry-themed ones would be great to use.
More adaptability to the "slide master" selection. It is extremely laborious to change each slide generated from the master slide.
Linux support is non-existent. With Android/Chrome OS being based on the linux kernel but also with lots of tech-savvy and influencers using non-Windows and non iOS platforms, I feel a pariah.
As far as I know for Android phones and tablets you can only present but not edit prezis in its native app. Again an Android users, it is a sub-par experience the app in general is lacking functionality.
Using the browser version (because I have no other alternative) uploading multiple images is very buggy
Having a version history would be great when you are editing a large presentation over several days
Learning to use Prezi and create new presentations is very simple and easy to do. It does not require new skills or a long training process, since in general the use is quite intuitive (and if you have any questions there are many videos on how to use it). Its operation in both the browser version and the app is very good and fluid, managing to perform all the tasks you want properly.
I've never contacted Microsoft support directly; I've only Googled the answers to my questions. But just the fact that there are thousands of posts on boards with people having random issues with PPT is a bit indicative of the state of the support for their product.
It is a modern and easy-to-use tool (after a while) that allows you to make dynamic and trained presentations without the need to be an expert user. It has allowed me to improve the attention and motivational processes of my students. In addition, it has many [community users] who make videos and teach the many uses that you can use Prezi. And because, despite the restrictions of the free version, everyone can access and make use of Prezi and thus improve their boring ppt and inject some vitality into them.
Adobe Illustrator is an excellent software but it's not easy to use for [everyone without] having any training or previous experience in working with illustrator. Microsoft Powerpoint is very easy to use and it's fantastic as it saves time more than illustrator. Another thing is it takes small space while illustrator takes a significant amount of space in the business machine
Other solutions for presentations all fall on the typical slideshow paradigm. So far, only Prezi walked away from this path. Its expanding canvas and freeform path are refreshing in this scenario. In this sense, Prezi is unique in its style of presentation, which makes difficult to establish comparisons based on costs. The still ongoing migration to Prezi Next has been a bit troubled, according to some old users, but it seems the company is working to give Prezi Next the same flexibility that Prezi Classic. And Prezi already has a huge user base that do not want to go back working with the limits of slides.
Prezi provided us with a unique selling factor when it came to pitching our services to new prospects.
While creating a presentation from scratch might be time-consuming, Prezi allows you to easily reuse and utilize old designs to create new presentations with a different vibe and content.
An easy way to impress upper management and stakeholders, especially when presenting to the management of our clients.
