    Some specifications of the web version are - It can open files of up to 2 Gb in size. Earlier this was called as PowerPoint web app[which has less features than the current web version]. You can edit files such as PowerPoint Presentation [.pptx], PowerPoint show [.ppsx], .odp files. But it does not support editing for PowerPoint Template [.potx], PowerPoint 1997-2003 template .pot, .pps, .pptm,.potm [only view feature is supported]. Here the online version will convert them to latest version for editing. Also, the save feature of PowerPoint online saves changes automatically, unlike desktop version where you need to go File> Save as initially, and then click Save after every change. Also password protected or digital signature based documents cannot be edited in web version.

    This trial presentation software is very well suited for trial, depositions and mediations. The software organizes exhibits and allows for synchronized deposition transcripts to be viewed simultaneously. It allows the attorney to tell the complete story of the case by quickly putting together productions, discovery and any additional documentation needed to build a case.

    • Since I work in technical support, we use this tool everyday at the end of the shift to make the reports.
    • This is one of the best tool and very simple to use.
    • Since we received so many different severity tickets in my shift and we have to report it to the management and so this tool help a lot and show things clearly.
    • This tool have so many templates and themes available which makes it very suitable as per the requirement.
    • I love this tool and amazing to work on it. So many things to explore.

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • Running a presentation from PowerPoint online has been a disappointing experience. Things just don't react as smoothly as they do in the offline version because we're relying on sometimes iffy internet connections.
    • Video does not play well when it's embedded and played through the online version.
    • Downloading a PPT file that was created online creates almost no inconsistencies, but in my experience uploading a PPT to the online version that was created offline sometimes does create issues with fonts and formatting.

    I would rather change to other tool if I could. Microsoft Powerpoint Online was top-down forced without a real technical (maybe financial only) reason, and I think the product itself looks like a poor adaptation of the offline version. In my experience, it cannot be properly used in real time collaboration, can't handle large media (images/videos), has low performance even for a single user, it is a nightmare.

    Powerpoint's ease of use makes it stand out. You can build custom presentations easily, and even those without extensive skills can do this. It makes it a good tool for a whole organization, rather than each team having its own tool. This means you can have templates for the whole organization to use for better branding and consistency

    I have used TrialPad in the past and found it very user friendly and easy to use. However, functionality is limited as to what you can do or how the data can be manipulated once uploaded to TrialPad. TrialDirector 360 by Ipro gives the user a full array of tools and functionality and in some ways is easier to navigate and control in presentation mode.

    Return on Investment
    Microsoft
    • It has made it easier for the training to be well handled and transitioned to the work-at-home life faster.
    • a lot of people is used to the installed version of PowerPoint, the online version is a familiar look and feels to the times when we were working from the office, which made the transition faster and easier for everyone.
