Included and intuitive
We use PowerPoint to visually communicate in most of our meetings from team level up to corporate level. It helps drive home key points in a meeting and provide visuals that help data make sense. As an included part of the Microsoft Office Suite it works well with other apps such as Excel for utilizing charts and graphs.
- Animations of objects on a single slide
- Transitions from slide to slide
- Dynamic sizing of fonts to make items fit
- Video backgrounds rather than stills that can continuously play from one slide to the next
- Wizards to create templates as that part is not intuitive
- Ability to link text from one slide to the next like Publishers ability to bleed over from one text box into a next
- Reduces printing costs as you can view data on screen in a room rather than flipping thru pages of information.
- Helps control meeting flow reducing time wasted off topic
Looked at some free open source but in the end stick with Powerpoint because it is part of Microsoft Office and supported when issues arise.
