What do you like best about Microsoft PowerPoint?

The ease with which you can make a very professional presentation as well as figures for different types of articles or research reports is great. I use it on a daily basis for both. The ability to be able to line things up and snap items into place as well as make personalized master slides for whatever type of project, company, or group you are working for is nice so you can keep things consistent throughout your time at the work place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft PowerPoint?

It really is a minor thing but the difficulty in being able to put things in as a sub or super script is a little crazy. Maybe I can find short keys to do some of it, but having to highlight and right click to get to font is time consuming. The other area is that when showing arrows or making connections, it will immediately try to go to the red dot of a corner or the middle of the connection when in reality a lot of times I don't want that. Again I'm sure there are settings that can be manipulated to change this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Microsoft PowerPoint:

You can constantly learn something new from either reading online, doing mini seminars, watching a video or talking with you colleagues to make it better for whatever needs you have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft PowerPoint solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use it for weekly presentations in front of groups as well as making posters by altering the page dimensions and figures for articles and papers that will be published. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft PowerPoint?

Although PowerPoint is relatively simple to use, inexperienced users may find its sophisticated featuers and functionalities daunting. For some users, mastering these functions might be a barrier because it takes a lot of time and effort. PowerPoint might be limited in terms of customisation even though it provides a wide selection of templates and design possibilities. Because of the software's limited selection of pre-made layouts and templates, users could find it challenging to produce really original and personalised designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The challenge of successfully conveying concepts through visual presentations is resolved by Microsoft PowerPoint. I can arrange content in a logical manner and improve audience comprehension and engagement thanks to its user-friendly features.

PowerPoint helps me communicate ideas effectively and professionally by producing polished slideshows.
