Considered Both Products
Apple Keynote
Chose Apple Keynote
Keynote is much easier to learn and use than either PowerPoint or Canva. The only advantage Canva has over Keynote is its collaboration features. Canva is gradually improving as a usable presentation software. Its problem lies in its file management, which is counterintuitive, …
Chose Apple Keynote
Simpler than PPT, more Powerful than Slides, better graphics and more pagination friendly than Miro, Simpler to use (and cheaper) than illustrator.
Chose Apple Keynote
To be honest, Apple Keynote was my choice for my youth group presentation needs at first because it was free. But as I have used it more and more, I've come to really appreciate the abilities it has and the ease at which I can create a quality presentation to share with my …
Chose Apple Keynote
Apple Keynote is superior to all except Figma in terms of design functionality. Figma has even more precise alignment with their auto layout features, layers and frame grouping. The only downside of Figma is that we do not purchase licenses for every person at our company, so …
Chose Apple Keynote
It's not cloud based, which is a good thing. There are many similarities. Prezi and other cloud based products are much more powerful.
Chose Apple Keynote
If you want to create presentations more often, Prezi and Canva or not even options, both of tools take a lot of time. So the real competitor for Apple Keynote is Microsoft Powerpoint. For me, Powerpoint is so feature-filled that makes it a little complex. On the other hand, …
Chose Apple Keynote
Keynote has a simpler interface, which is definitely a plus for us because presentations are edited by people from different departments. It's more elegant and intuitive. In my observations, it also runs faster than PowerPoint on Macs, but that may be subjective. Keynote is …
Chose Apple Keynote
While I don't use Keynote for every slide deck project need (software preference often is dictated by what the client has access to), I will promote KeyNote as the preferred format if the client is software-agnostic. The drag and drop feature is incomparable with other software …
Chose Apple Keynote
I use Microsoft PowerPoint, Apple Keynote, and Google Slides. Of these three slideshow programs, I find PowerPoint to be the most robust in features and capabilities and in integrations with other programs. It also can be easily used across various devices, platforms, and …
Chose Apple Keynote
Apple Keynote is preinstalled and free to use on any Apple device which makes it very accessible. The ease of use of this tool is much better than the competitive one. The time needed to prepare the nice-looking and high-quality slides in this tool is much lower than in other …
Chose Apple Keynote
Keynote is a better visual aid and generally runs better for us since we use MacBooks (less errors when presenting which really matters in a remote context). It takes more effort to get to a finished product though, since we have to neuter what we present (less slides and …
Chose Apple Keynote
Even though Google Slides makes it easier to share presentations and allow the team to work on one file simultaneously, you just cannot compare it to Keynote. Keynote just makes it so much easier to build beautiful presentations with endless possibilities. From a design …
Chose Apple Keynote
To sum up, Keynote is easier to use, less complicated, and elegant. When you use Keynote, your presentation doesn't look like everyone else's. That alone sets it apart as something special. If you're already a Mac user, then it's a no-brainer because the software comes with the …
Chose Apple Keynote
In my opinion, Apple Keynote is, by far, more aesthetically pleasing than Microsoft Powerpoint or Google Slides. Powerpoint is of course the classic slide-presentation program, and the benefit of Google Slides is that it is entirely cloud-based and therefore you can access your …
Visme
Chose Visme
We use both tools - Canva is great but not as effective for creating presentations as Visme is.
Chose Visme
When compared to Visme, Prezi has only one feature: presentation creation. However, Visme has many more features, including creating social media content and various marketing videos for our company. This is the reason we choose Visme over Prezi.
Chose Visme
PowerPoint has fewer templates when compared to Visme, PowerPoint has limited editor options, and both offer transitions and animations. Visme has the ability to share files and folders privately, while PowerPoint can only share files privately. Visme helps format the …
Chose Visme
Visme is one of the finest applications in terms of producing more engaging and effective designs, slides or infographics for the business very easily. Illustrator is much more complex and requires a lot of practice for becoming an expert. Whereas, Visme doesn't require …
Chose Visme
Visme in my opinion is a little sub par compared to the other visualization and infographic tools I have used previously. it is a good toll and gets the job done however the training I recieved in tableau was much more helpful and helped me make a better decision and use of …
Chose Visme
In my opinion - PowerPoint slides get boring and even their new auto-designs get outdated after a while.

Likelihood to Recommend
Well Suited: Setting up in-person presentations for clients. The transitions are nicely integrated, the master template easily adjusted, and the file size relatively small for ease in download and emailing as a leave behind. Less Appropriate: Clients often feel that EVERYTHING needs to be set up as a slide deck. However, it is key to listen to the client's needs to first determine the final output. What was initially predetermined to be a slide deck may often be more effective as an email, brochure, or flyer. Keynote does what it is intended to, well, but that doesn't mean that it should ALWAYS be the end product format.

Visme is great for our team of 8 marketing professionals to create and share graphics, presentations and other marketing collateral. I could see that it would also be effective for a larger, enterprise marketing department. It is a bit pricey when your team grows, and at times our newer team members have struggled to learn the tool.

Cons
  • The way you adjust timings for builds and transitions was a bit counterintuitive for me. Once I got the hang of it, it was fine. The timings don't work the same as they do in PowerPoint. So if you are a PowerPoint user, that may be something you have to adjust to when you switch to Keynote.
  • I feel that adding images can be clunky when working with image placeholders. Apple Keynote forces you to use the Photo app to replace image placeholders.

  • Downloaded vs printed quality might not always match here
  • Other than this I have found this application as the best in designing of slides or communication material

It is already included with my Macbook and the design functionality is pretty advanced so I can upload my custom brand fonts and it is easy to create templates where you can drag and drop different images while keeping overall alignment and placement the same

Usability
Apple Keynote is incredibly user-friendly and largely intuitive. In the rare areas that Apple Keynote is not intuitive, there is a robust online community of fellow Apple Keynote users that can answer most questions I have about the program. I would encourage any of my coworkers - and anyone else in my same line of work - to adopt Apple Keynote because of its user-friendliness.

Visme is one of the finest applications in terms of producing more engaging and effective designs, slides or infographics for the business very easily. Illustrator is much more complex and requires a lot of practice for becoming an expert. Whereas, Visme doesn't require technical expertise for this type of job. Visme always allows the company to create standard process policies in visual as it helps the employees to adhere to.
