Know how to use PowerPoint and Prezi, but never really know which one you should use. This will walk you through the pros and cons of each, plus it'll guide you in the right direction as to which tool is the best for you.

1. 
Which is the right tool for you?
Prezi Vs PowerPoint

2. How to choose?

3. Both tools rock …
 Both
softwares
incorporate
 images
 sounds
 videos
 text
 charts
(if used correctly)
So first some similarities:
For an interactive
presentation.

4. More similarities
 Both are used by all kinds of
people:
 Business people
 Students

5. First let’s take a closer look at Prezi

6.  Free, if you don’t mind your Prezis
being public (Unless you upgrade or
have an educational account)
 Sensation of being more fluid and visual
 Web based (work from any computer,
tablet, etc.)
 Collaboration feature helps when
working with others
 Non-linear navigation
 Short learning curve (if you give it a real
chance)
Prezi
Pros

7.  If you go nuts with the zoomable
features, you can make people dizzy.
(Use grouping and frames to avoid)
 Limited printing options.
 Web based (when you have internet,
unless you upgrade)
 Animation feature and becom too much
and not be as cool after about 10
presentations.
 There is a learning curve.
Prezi
Cons

8. Now PowerPoint…

9.  More features and options in latest
versions
 PowerPoint animations can impact a
crowd.
 Linear slide format and design (some
prefer it).
 More people are familiar with the
format, which usually means they
prefer it.
 No learning curve.
PowerPoint
Pros

10.  Animation is not as smooth as Prezi.
 If not used well comes out as boring to
the audience.
 Usually only the most common features
are used (about 10%)
 Linear slide format (finding a slide after
you’ve passed it could be a hastle)
PowerPoint
Cons

11. Now, which one to use?

12. First a warning...
Independent of the tool you
use to give your presentation,
the result will rely soley on
your ability to plan and
include meaningful content.

13. Have you figured out
which is best for you?
Prezi
 Great for presentations that
need:
 To look at tha big picture –
details
 To skip back and forth
 Map-like layouts
 Brainstorming
 Timeline
 Whiteboard effect
PowerPoint
 Great for presentations that
need to explain:
 Reports
 Step-by-step ideas
 Processes
 Linear
 Numbers and data

14. Things to remember
• Don’t overuse animations
(or zooming in Prezi’s case)
• Focus on the content. Don’t
get so wrapped up in the
tool and all the cool fun stuff
you can do with it, that you
forget the most important
part: meaningful content.
