Considered Both Products	CustomShow.com Justin Croxton Director of Marketing Chose CustomShow.com I think they are all stacking up against each other. Powerpoint is a free alternative.

Because of that, CustomShow is really in a different category of … Helpful?	Prezi Verified User Anonymous Chose Prezi More options for designs and transitions. More visual aids available. Good way to have various types of presentations. Incentivized Helpful? Jaciara Fagundes Coordenadora de controle de projetos Chose Prezi Pre-video with videos is the best choice. Keynote in presentations of this type leaves something to be desired. If the presentation has content with videos, they should be deleted, as they are incorporated into the final file size. It is important to note that it is necessary … Incentivized Helpful? Sara Flores Sales Consultant Chose Prezi Canva is a very good platform for designing slides. We previously used it in our company.

I think … Incentivized Helpful? CB C. Bilbao Profesional PIE Chose Prezi 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.

Joshua Melder Customer Account Manager Chose Prezi Prezi offers several fantastic templates right out of the box and automatically creates an engaging atmosphere to explore new content.

Maria Paz Tellez Administrative Assistant Chose Prezi In particular, visually I like Prezi much more, because it is more dynamic and modern.

Jason Thompson Social Studies Teacher Chose Prezi This is a presentation tool similar to PowerPoint and Google Slides.

Stella Olsson Territory Sales Manager Chose Prezi 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 … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Prezi Prezi is more animated with a greater amount of detailed movement.

Incentivized Helpful? Penelope Brown Dining Room Manager Chose Prezi 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.

Morganne McIntyre Account Relationship Specialist Chose Prezi 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.

DH Danielle Healey ESOL Teacher Chose Prezi Prezi is so much better for students when showing information, but it can be harder/slower to set up. Incentivized Helpful?

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 … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Prezi 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 … Incentivized Helpful? Alexander Hartmann Fine Chemical Sales Manager Chose Prezi 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. Incentivized Helpful? Achyut Kulkarni Graduate Research Assistant Chose Prezi Haven't evaluated any other presentation tool. However, Prezi stacks up incredibly well and is high on the list of such tools. It is very integrative as compared to other such tools. Incentivized Helpful?

Becca Guler Learning Specialist Chose Prezi Canva does not include animations (including the ability for individual elements within a "slide" to appear as you click rather than all at once).

Angel Rojas Sales Consultant Chose Prezi Prezi is a bit slow around the platform in general, however, I chose it because it is a little faster and offers a much faster online platform that Canva.

Emily Hammell Marketing Manager Chose Prezi At the time I choose to use Prezi, there were very few options to create such a professional and easy presentation.

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	It is well suited for larger organizations. It cannot be used by single individuals like people who use Prezi or Powerpoint. If you are a large organization and looking to save on productivity, time, and improve branding across marketing and sales pitches, this software is absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend anyone heading up a company with 25 employees or more consider the software. Justin Croxton Director of Marketing Read full review	I believe Prezi is well suited when an author wants to create a more compelling presentation. It is also most useful when using it to explain processes, flows, and/or other visual elements. From another perspective, when it is necessary to create something more quickly, Prezi may not be the right solution, when compared to PowerPoint, for example. There are nice templates, but the creation process may not be so fast and simple. Incentivized Luciano Gardesani Marques Account Executive Read full review
Pros	It allows you collaborate and share across your organization. It integrates video seamlessly into any presentation you create. It have an incredible slide library management component that stores everything in the cloud for the users. Used by major fortune 100 companies, it allows for organizations to present their best and look their best. Justin Croxton Director of Marketing Read full review	Prezi can provides a literal "big picture" view of the presentation content. This helps the audience understand what the presentation is ultimately all about. Prezi is anything but bland. It animates the content and makes it feel like you are "in" the material. Prezi presentations can incorporate video, images, text and more. There are many options to present content to an audience. Eric Batson Learning and Development Specialist Read full review
Cons	I think the analytics piece could be improved a little more. Justin Croxton Director of Marketing Read full review	Can be buggy and crashes mid design. Not suitable for simple presentations. Hard to create something quick and simple, so even after we gained experience we still had a hard time using it to deliver a presentation overnight. Can be slow to load a presentation, so we always setup 5-10 minutes before our actual presentation time and made sure everything is loaded and ready to go. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Because it provides a great user experience, it makes my organization look good in front of pitches, and the software is great from a collaboration perspective. Plus, I like the fact that i can use video incredible well with all of my presentations. It has minor challenges and takes time to figure out, but once you do the sky is the limit. Justin Croxton Director of Marketing Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	No answers on this topic	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. CB Carlos Bilbao Profesional PIE Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	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.

Alternatives Considered	I think they are all stacking up against each other. Powerpoint is a free alternative. But I think CustomShow doesn't focus on better looking powerpoint slides....it focuses on better looking presentations period. Because of that, CustomShow is really in a different category of business presentation software and up there with Clearslide. Justin Croxton Director of Marketing Read full review	We also tried Powerpoint and Visio to prepare hierarchical presentations, but it was not as easy, and it was kind of difficult to edit. Prezi provided built-in zoom-pan animation, which made it easier. Also, there were many samples from the Prezi community that one could learn from. Finally, Prezi Classic was free and there was not any limitation in using the free version. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	It has had a positive ROI in that the level of productivity in creating presentations has grown. Justin Croxton Director of Marketing Read full review	Prezi is really a sunk cost for us. The positive is to stand out when other organizations are presenting in a more traditional way Ability to explain complex concepts is a plus Instant save of work and access through the cloud is another very positive aspect which makes the paid version worth it Incentivized Javier Schwersensky CEO Read full review
