Most teachers and businessmen are aware of Microsoft PowerPoint as a presentation tool, but few are aware of the alternatives. Below I have listed my top three alternatives and their advantages over PowerPoint.
1. Prezi
Unlike PowerPoint, Prezi is not a slide based presentation tool, it is cloud based. This helps the presenter to create animated presentations using Adobe Flash. As there are no slides, you store information on a canvas and choreograph your presentation. Prezi is very different from PowerPoint, but has advantages for those looking for a different kind of presentation. I can see the benefits of this application, with its zooming qualities, I will be able to zoom into areas of images, paintings and photographs that I want to highlight to the class, and I look forward to using this type of presentation in the future.
2. Slide Rocket
If you want alternative slide based presentation software to PowerPoint, then I recommend Slide Rocket. Slide Rocket has advanced animations and transitions, and I have chosen this as an excellent substitute for those looking to create similar presentations to PowerPoint, but are in search of an alternative.
3. Powtoon
Powtoon creates a new presentation experience, using animated characters to introduce story telling, rather than fact based presentations. This software gives you the ability to create short animations to add to your presentation experience. This is an excellent presentation tool for anyone who wants to bring more life into their teaching, and is a recommended change for those who find their students napping during sessions.
