Overall Satisfaction with Prezi

Just our department. We are in customer experience and have used it to visually demonstrate a Journey Map of our customers. It provides depth so you can visually see the big picture and details all at the same time. I have used it for presentations and for documentation and exploration.
  • Zoom interface and depth. The ability to go from a big picture to a detail
  • Collaboration between presentations
  • Videos inside of the presentation
  • The training prezi was great! It had you walk through doing a prezi and using the features, this is how I trained individuals.
  • Find your secret sauce for trainig
  • Good templates
  • Consider Walkme as a training tool? For in the moment usage.
  • It is often just too much for some people.... Know the audience. Some people are just not ready for it and don't do it right.
  • Honestly I haven't been able to use it in a good ROI way I see opportunity but none have been used.
Prezi is not even in the same league.
I personally have taught professors and students at a college level how to use it and when it is appropriate. I have run multiple workshops on this topic.
I think the number one thing is to know the audience. When I worked at a university they were much more open and would not get hung up on the tool I used, if anything they were impressed. Now I work in the insurance industry and WOW are they old school. I would attempt to use a Prezi and they just got too distracted that they couldn't focus on my content. And I pride myself in not doing too much of a drastic zoom and not to jump too much but even just a little zoom or jump was difficult. I have used Prezi for documentation such as an organizational chart so that you can go up and down quickly. I think if Prezi bumped up their strength in building an interactive process it would open a market. Don't be so linear. Instead, provide the opportunity to click around and discover the presentation. Such as a map of a university, then they click on icons and it brings them zooming in and out. I think the point and click would be amazing.
