The best programs for creating presentations

The most famous application for this task is the free PowerPoint from the Microsoft Office package. However, famous does not mean best. It is suitable for preparing simple projects, but when considering other programs, you will be surprised to find that there are more convenient, understandable, and functional analogs of PowerPoint, where you can create really impressive work.

ProShow Producer 

ProShow Producer is serious software for preparing high-definition video presentations. There are quite a lot of tools, more than 1200 filters, and effects, a built-in collection of audio with licenses, there is even a plug-in for Adobe Lightroom. However, it was not without its downsides. Like many professional programs, the editor is expensive, and in the trial mode (15 days), the developer's logo will be superimposed on the image. You can download the program using a reliable and secure pirate bay platform. This site is a solid choice with a lot of high-quality torrents in this category.

SmartDraw 

SmartDraw is a very suitable application for making presentations. It specializes in the preparation of graphs, drawings, diagrams, and the like and also allows you to prepare standard slide shows. The program has many object templates, you can make infographics as well as open and edit files from Microsoft Office. However, there are too few tools for beautiful visual design.

VideoScribe

VideoScribe is an alternative to PowerPoint with an interesting twist. It contains numerous prefabricated objects that can be used for animation. As a result, you can prepare quite original projects that are not similar to most of the work done in standard editors. In addition, VideoScribe includes a built-in audio collection and allows you to save the video in any format.

You can also import data from office documents into projects.

Apple Keynote

The software has the option of collective work on the project. Apple Keynote only works on Apple platforms, but there is an online version available on the site that is available to everyone.

Kingsoft Presentation If you are looking for free presentation software, you can try Kingsoft Presentation (part of WPS Office). It is easy enough to understand, you can use video and audio, insert transitions, work on several presentations at the same time. You can get even more options if you buy a paid version of the software, but the free version of the software is quite enough.

LibreOffice 

LibreOffice is an analog of the office suite from Microsoft, which can be downloaded for free. In addition to word processing and spreadsheet applications, it includes Impress for multimedia presentations. In it you will find numerous drawing tools, various styles, and special effects, options for the easy creation of diagrams and drawings, and much more.

We have considered the most practical and functional options for presentation software. Online services are convenient in that you do not have to install software on your computer, but they often have fewer functions. Besides, the work depends on the Internet connection, and there is always a chance to accidentally lose your work. Desktop editors, on the other hand, are more reliable and usually offer more tools. Such software will allow you to make a really spectacular presentation that can impress the audience.
