Anything but PowerPoint: five fresh presentation alternatives Jul 9, 2013 3:30 AM What application springs to mind when you think of creating visual aids to accompany your business presentation? For most people, it's Microsoft's PowerPoint. But that's certainly not the only game in town. Plenty of other tools and services are cooler, faster, easier to use, and--in almost all cases--less expensive.
We've rounded up five compelling alternatives to PowerPoint, including Web apps that let you dispense with installing software, and mobile apps that allow for presentation-building (and presenting) on the go. Not included are well-known options such as Google Docs, OpenOffice, and Zoho Show, all of which offer basic slide-builders that can easily pinch-hit for PowerPoint and don't cost a dime. Those tools, however, haven't changed much in recent years.
Our goal is to showcase presentation options that will help you get your point across a little differently, so your audience's eyes don't glaze over in the middle of your pitch. And if your business saves a bit of cash in the process, all the better!
