Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Publisher

We use Microsoft Publisher to create high standard documents and infographics for sharing department- or company-wide. It gives a more professional look than Microsoft Word when the document is more flow or picture based, rather than pure written content.

Pros

  • Professional presentation
  • Infographics
  • Internal communication documents
  • Event information

Cons

  • Finding the right template
  • Unable to edit WordArt
  • No extra fee as included within MS Office 365 suite.
It is fairly easy to pick up and use if you are already familiar with other MS Office programs like Word or PowerPoint. It provides good variability in appearance options.
It works better than PowerPoint if it is one-page sharing content or poster, as opposed to a full presentation.
It doesn't have as much functionality as Canva, but is more cost effective as it is included with the MS Office 365 Suite.

Did Microsoft Publisher live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Microsoft Publisher go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Microsoft Publisher again?

Yes

Creating visually appealing content to present or share within the business, or to external stakeholders. We have used this to create event posters, i.e. for our Annual Awards or Christmas Party, or Infographics for Human Resources content. It provides a better platform for creating easy-to-read content. It is less appropriate for highly technical and wordy content.
