Google Slides

Pros

What I like most is that it's fully integrated with Chrome and with my Google account.

Cons

Sometimes converting and downloading files as ppt results in bad quality.

Pros

I love how simple it is to use, the templates, and most importantly the fact that you can easily pull up Google Slide presentations simply by logging into your Google account since sometimes computers aren't compatible with PowerPoint.

Cons

Nothing. I absolutely LOVE Google Slides. I have used it for every presentation for years now.

Pros

Easy to setup and make a professional slide show, great cloud storage

Cons

Can be difficult for new users to fully utilize

Pros

They can be used from google.com anytime with all those features

Cons

Not much used of Ai to generate background and animation

Pros

The best features of Google Slides are its ease of use, customization, integration of other G Suite products, and presentation mode. The array of options that someone can use on Google Slides is staggering; it is accessible to novices and experts in technology. Using this idea, one can really dig deeply to customize slides, creating engaging and interactive presentations. Embedding other G Suite products such as Docs and Drawings is simple, and the ability to create a looping presentation from any Slides project is a plus!

Cons

Though Google Slides are easy to approach for anyone, it is also fairly easy to get overwhelmed. The amount of options available via the toolbar is quite numerous, and this could push away users who are deterred by complicated looking interfaces and too many options.

Pros

I like how convenient and simplistic it is to use this tool.

Cons

I wish there were the ability to add equations like with Google Docs. It's hard to make presentations on research when you have less ability to format scientific and mathematical equations.

Pros

The fact that it is similar to PowerPoint and that I can complete my work on Google Slides as I would on PowerPoint. Most importantly, is the fact that it is free of charge.

Cons

Nothing, I love Google Slides and I would urge those who wish to use PowerPoint but can't afford one to resort to Google Slides.

Pros

Great for collab working on slides, and getting away from PowerPoint!

Cons

Not as much funky functionality on transitions, animations, etc as ppt, but sometimes simpler is better!

Pros

I love all the customized options. Slides are super easy to make even with rudimentary tools and no knowledge.

Cons

Sometimes laggy and the tools can mess up once or twice.
Inability to save and link all together with other Google programs

Pros

What I like most is that Google Slides works similarly to PowerPoint, so I can easily get my work done just like I would on PowerPoint. And the best part is, it's completely free!

Cons

Google Slides has limited usefulness without an internet connection, while being able to be utilized offline.

Pros

This product is very user friendly. It completely replaces PowerPoint and is free to use. One of the best features about this program is that it allows for colleague to access,edit, and present the created slides. Your slides can be accessed at anytime by logging in and you don't have to remember to save changes as it automatically saves your work.

Cons

No complaints! I have encountered no drawbacks with this program during my years of use.

Pros

I like how modular slides is. its easy to drag and drop. our business relies almost entirely on Google Drive so to have a slides program so easily integrated with our drive works well. As with all things Drive, sharing is easy and effortless, which we used A LOT.

Cons

There could be more options when it comes to transitions. Also formatting multiple text areas could be a little more streamline. Mind you I'm no expert at it (yet) but I don't find it particularly intuitive.
Also some sort of snap to grid function to allow multiple text areas to line up nicely would be helpful.

Pros

Easy for sharing or even creating a custom image for social media.

Cons

Not a lot of graphic choices compared to some other similar products

Pros

Easy to use. Very nice design. Good integration with other Google apps.

Cons

Difficulty to convert PPT to Google Slides format. Offline features could be improved.

Reasons for Switching to Google Slides

Pros

I’ve used Google Slides forever, since college. It is easy to not only use but collaborate on. I’ve done numerous presentations online and in groups with Google slides. It is easy for everyone to access, edit, and present with. It is easy to add media to the slides and texts. Since I use Gmail as my main email I like how everything is kept together so I just have to log into my email to access my saved work on Google slides.

Cons

There is limited offline functionality but I usually always have WiFi so it hasn’t been that much of an issue. Google slides app also works on your smart phone.

Pros

All around its friendly and intuitive collaboration features. Nice to be able to notify peers, and manage accesses (define who I want to be able to edit the presentation, add comments, or just read-only). Very convenient for all types of presentations that require multiple people to provide their input. Also great to foster team-work. Nice as well, if you need someone specific to make the 'final validation/ review' in an on-line manner.

Cons

I have not found drawbacks in my daily utilization in the last years.

Pros

The simplicity of the interface makes it beginner-friendly, and the wide range of templates speeds up the creation process is what I like the most about Google Slides.

Cons

Least enjoyable aspect about Google Slides for me is it can lag when working with presentations that have heavy media, like videos or high-resolution images.

Pros

The automatic save function saves time. The ability to edit, store, and pdf slides is helpful. The comments tools is a key function for collaboration and teamwork in a remote environment.

Cons

I wish it could integrate into more programs and products.

Pros

I love how easy it is to collaborate with people and work on a something at the same time with live updates. I also find it so convenient how many sites there are that you can import slide templates onto google slides. It is so easy to design presentation visuals and the selection of fonts is endless.

Cons

I have no complaints! I have used google slides for quite sometime and love the ease of use across the whole site.

Pros

I like about the ease of integration with other apps

Cons

It has some hard restraint on api usage. So as a developer I least like about that.

Pros

In fact, everything is wonderful, suitable for work, easy to use and not complicated, but the things I love most are after adding artificial intelligence tools, it has become very fun and easy while I work.

Cons

In fact, everything is wonderful, suitable for work, easy to use and uncomplicated, but the things I don’t like most after adding artificial intelligence tools are that I become any ordinary person who is not specialized in creating progressive presentations, working and creating a specialized presentation and accurate content.

Pros

It's very easy to create slides with Google slides.It is very user friendly.It has a lot of features and templates available.We can create our own templates.It can be accessed from anywhere.Making changes are easy

Cons

I think offline functionality can be increased.

Pros

It is easy to use and best for collaborative work

Cons

Templates are not very limited so all the slides needs to be manually done

Pros

Screen sharing and animation is the best when you are creating presentation.

Cons

Nothing much. Because I can use it anytime.

Pros

I've been using google slides both in work and in school. I allows me to:
-Create an accessible presentation
-Create a presentation both online and offline
-Create presentation with groupmates
-Export presentation to other formats
-Convert presentation to google slides' format
