Recensioni su Decktopus

Viable alternative to PowerPoint with visually attractive slides and a robust template library

Commenti: Decktopus is a great choice when you need to quickly wrap your message in a visually appealing slide deck; it lets you focus on the content rather than the slide design. The lack of control over sharing slides is my main frustration, which I hope the team can solve without implementing another one-time, add-on fee.

Aspetti positivi:

The visual design of the stock templates is what attracted me to this software. Although PowerPoint's templates have gotten better over the years, you can still easily tell when a presenter has just selected and modified a stock PowerPoint template or worse, opted for the DIY white background and black Arial font look..."Here we go again, death by PowerPoint, I hope the presenter put more thought into their analysis than they did into their slide design..."

Aspetti negativi:

I miss the ability to have a slide sorter view like PowerPoint. For short 10-slide presentations, the lack of this feature isn't a big deal. However, for longer presentations, scrolling back and forth through the deck to rearrange slides quickly becomes frustrating. Sharing slides is easy but lacks obvious controls of who can view the deck. Maybe I'm missing something here but sharing seems to be all or nothing. There doesn't appear to be a way to "unshare" a deck once the public URL has been shared and there is no way to generate private URLs to share the deck with only specific people based on their email address. It's puzzling why this feature is missing. From the Help Center, "Note: This sharing URL is a public URL, everyone can see your presentation using this public sharing URL."

Excellent alternative to MS PowerPoint

Commenti: I love it.
I create all my weekly client presentations in Decktopus. I reckon it saves me at least 2 hours every week.

Aspetti positivi:

Create classy presentations quickly using easy to customize templates. It's super easy to customize templates compared to PowerPoint. Once you select the style and color, you're ready to go. I spend less than 10 minutes on customizing templates.

Aspetti negativi:

The stock image selection is limited. But with so many free image and illustrations available on the net, it isn't a big issue.

New version - We apologize for the inconvenience, but ... Thank you for your understanding and again we apologize.

Commenti: fun until the new version was here... i want all my presentations as they were

Aspetti positivi:

i was really a fan of the decktopus until the new version came online... my work was re-formated and seems like I have to redo it all over again... thank you very much for that I think I have to look for another alternative

Aspetti negativi:

replies like like this: if the texts or images are in a different position or size, you can easily adjust them from the editing page. During the transition of decks to the new version, there have been no alterations in content; however, modifications in design may occur. Rest assured, you can effortlessly fix any such modifications from the editing page for a seamless experience. i can rest assured... i have to do them all over again

Decktopus was exactly what I needed

Commenti: My experience with Decktopus was great!!

Aspetti positivi:

It was easy to use and the deck was I created was exactly what I needed for my presentation.

Aspetti negativi:

I was not able to edit the slides in PowerPoint after I downloaded the deck.

Beautiful and easy presentations

Aspetti positivi:

It's quick to create beautiful and informative presentations with Decktopus. I've gotten overwhelming amount of positive feedback on the quality of my presentations after switching from PowerPoint to Decktopus. Decktopus forces you think: what's really important? There are limitations on number of characters you can use per title etc following best practices of oresenting. First I found this annoying - now I just love it - knowing I won't overload anyone with too much info.

Aspetti negativi:

Tables in presentations are a bit clunky, but it's somewhat of a new feature so I think it will become better with time!

Unsatisfactory

Commenti: Very poor experience. Not user friendly or easy to ease. Unable to export into various option. I would not recommend this product. When trying to cancel, the subscription button doesn’t work.

Aspetti positivi:

Nothing, no features appealed to me. This product was unsatisfactory and I don’t know how much I can stress that I didn’t like anything about it.

Aspetti negativi:

None, I didn’t like anything about the product

Quality Hybrid Presentation / Information Collection tool

Commenti: The inbuilt questionnaires are great for safety professionals as it means we can send persons the links and collect the information directly from users after they have completed the toolbox or training.

Aspetti positivi:

- It's amazingly fast at creating presentations that are fully formatted and look great! - The integration of questionnaires allows for the collection of information within the presentation itself. - Very Stable - Fast Loading - Quality hot swappable templates - Excellent icon library - Frequent Updates

Aspetti negativi:

I really wish Decktopus would develop the ability to: - Export the presentations in HTML format or alternatively allow generation of a html file allowing presentations to be embedded / web linked into a Learning Management System. I.e. The platform's existing functionality would make this software great at creating online learning courses. - The ability to vertically swipe between slides up and down in presentation mode - The ability to import PowerPoint presentations is on the developer's roadmap but not yet available at time of this review.

Quick and easy presentations

Commenti: This one was pretty easy concept. Create an account and start working on a presentation.

Aspetti positivi:

This is a quick and easy platform to create presentations for sales meetings, training, info meetings, etc. The system is easy to use and allows online collaborators so you and a team cam work on a project.

Aspetti negativi:

I would like to see more templates and graphics elements. It does look like it is growing and the development continues to work on improvements.

Saves lots of time!

Commenti: Very easy to get set up and going and that’s a good thing.

Aspetti positivi:

I love the many templates that they have available. It speeds up the creation process rather than starting from scratch with saves lots of time!

Aspetti negativi:

Would be nice to have more customizations - like using AI as some of the other competitors have.

Their AI tech simply isn't ready, with a dash of bad customer service.

Commenti: Their approach to customer service was the nail in the coffin. With so many other options in the market, this one is a pass.

Aspetti positivi:

It was straightforward to sign up and get started. The product looks well-designed and polished.

Aspetti negativi:

The AI functionality is dreadful - the more descriptive the input, the worse the output gets. It's not usable, even as an aid to get started with a deck.

Amazing Service

Aspetti positivi:

I love how easy to use this service is and it helps with my presentations all the time. i dont need to use Microsoft as much, i think i prefer desktopus any day

Aspetti negativi:

i think customizing the templates could be made easier

I forget i have PowerPoint :)

Commenti: I love because i can access to Decktopus on my way and I can edit my presanctions on tablet too. There customers support is great. I hope they will add more advance and modern templates to their presentation template library and add more storage options like able to add more 3rd party apps.

Aspetti positivi:

I can access to Decktopus on my way easy to build presentations customizable templates I got Onetime pay option was a money saver

Aspetti negativi:

Not enough modern templates too much tools inside dashboard no onboarding enough have many other free options

Really fast way to get a slide deck published

Commenti: I really love this product as it saves my time presenting my ideas. The layouts currently available are limited, however they're getting the user experience right by enabling only essential customizations per slide layout. For each layout, there are also several variants, this part of UX that they also get right. Overall, Decktopus is really good for increasing productivity. I hope they continue to improve their product by adding more lead generation features, interactivity, analytics, integration with different apps via webhooks, Pabbly, etc. If they do, then this is not just a presentation tool but has huge potential.

Aspetti positivi:

Decktopus app saves my time, but really because of my own weakness. When trying to create a presentation using the usual software, a lot of time goes into thinking about the layout, about the design, about the positioning of certain elements, which take away the essence of the presentation itself: to express ideas. Decktopus allows me to do: express my ideas, without blocking me with non-essential details.

Aspetti negativi:

The interactive presentation features is pretty much non-existent and need to be developed. The use case is that the presenter will present Decktopus live in a virtual conference, and other participants can get a link to interact with this deck (e.g. polls), and the results/analytics will show in real-time in the presenter's slide.

A big boost in productivity

Commenti: Absolutely positive. Being able to create a presentation using the minutes instead of hours is priceless

Aspetti positivi:

For me, create powerpoint and presentation is always a mess. I spend usually lots of time formatting and resizing text and images in order to make slides interesting. But with Decktopus i can create a complete presentation in 30 minutes or less. It's very easy to use and force you to focus on what matters most: content

Aspetti negativi:

the platform is still immature and some important features such as animations are missing. But the potential is huge and the development team is very attentive to requests

Beautiful Templates

Aspetti positivi:

The templates are great and ready-to-go. You can just fill in the information and wow your audience.

Aspetti negativi:

There is nothing I dislike about Decktopus but I sometimes wish I could just add more info to description boxes but I know that the reason I can't is for a purpose- so that the presentation looks good to eyes!

Amazing Presentation Tool

Aspetti positivi:

Very easy to use with clean templates that resonate with buyers. Was very easy to create a new deck that is converting at a much higher rate.

Aspetti negativi:

The share links work but sometimes are blocked by my customers but it's easy to download and send the actual PDF>

Easy to use presentation software with existing attractive templates

Commenti: So far it saved me a bunch of time in creating presentations

Aspetti positivi:

They have a library of templates, and I don't have to worry about trying to figure out the best fonts and colors that work well for the media I am using.

Aspetti negativi:

It could use more editing options and capability

Decktopus User Review

Commenti: Used Decktopus on latest project. Unlike many softwares, I really like how easy it to use and the platform is quite self-explanatory.

Aspetti positivi:

Ease of use. Very fluid and accessible.

Aspetti negativi:

Tool gets buggy while uploading media files which slows down overall process.

Great and easy for sales

Aspetti positivi:

Great for sending sales decks in automated sales campaigns. Also lead generation is nice.

Aspetti negativi:

More integrations for HubSpot and others.

Not keeping their word

Aspetti positivi:

Overal it's OK software, but they are locking out key features for early investors. That's not nice.

Aspetti negativi:

I've been an early investor (lifetime deal) since they first started out. I've been a (fairly) happy user on the Business Plan, but now they are locking out features and selling those as "add-ons" to people who are on a lifetime plan. We are all on the Business Plan, but only people that pay monthly or yearly get these so called "add-ons" included in their plan. We are all on the Business plan, so it doesn't make any sense why we should have to pay extra for features that are included in the Business plan. They even lock us out of the "folders add-on", so we can't have folders (such a basic and to be honest must have functionality even in a free plan) without paying extra for it.

Time Saver

Commenti: I had plenty time of use Decktopus. I would like ease of use because Decktopus is time saver.

Aspetti positivi:

Ease of use was most liked feature for me. Also Integration with other application is very helpful.

Aspetti negativi:

Price can be regional. Foreign exchange can be problems for some regions.

Helps presentations look good

Commenti: Have used regularly for presentations since getting it. I'm very happy with it.

Aspetti positivi:

PowerPoint can be overwhelming. Decktopus helps make presentations look good with their built-in designs. Options are more limited, and that is exactly what I wanted. It keeps things looking really good.

Aspetti negativi:

If you are looking for more options, this is not the software for you. If you are looking for well designed presentations, Decktopus is excellent.

Great for brand image development!

Commenti: An enjoying learning curve that gives results!

Aspetti positivi:

When starting to develop brand awareness it is crucial to have the tools to help! Presentations, whether as a product or as a marketing tool, it is important that they portray the right brand image that reflects your company. With Dectopus - a few clicks and you have it right to hand. Reuse your templates to match the various formats you require, even a finished product that you can sell! Just right for a small as well as large business. Marketing or products, Dectopus is the tool for you!

Aspetti negativi:

Took a little time to pick up the process, but not time consuming.

Excelente para crear presentaciones y propuestas de manera innovadora.

Commenti: Lo comencé a usar por una prueba de versión trial y me encontré con un software robusto de mucha utilidad donde la forma de realizar tus presentaciones para clientes es totalmente diferente,

Aspetti positivi:

Lo que más me gusta es el aplicativo en la nube, ahora mismo en un mundo de inmediatez es necesario tener donde alojar la información y tener acceso de nuestras presentaciones en cualquier lugar, además es muy bueno tener una buena opción disponible diferente a PowerPoint, donde conseguir más plantillas.

Aspetti negativi:

Me gustaría que se pudieran insertar las presentaciones en páginas web o e-mailing. Actualmente se pueden insertar formularios y lead magnet, pero sería ideal que se pudiera insertar presentaciones completas.

Great Presentation Kit

Commenti: A lot of infographic software is at my disposal. They're all gone now. Decktopus, on the other hand, uses a unique slide design. They caught my eye so much that I bought the software right away without trying it out first. There is no regret in this. My students and colleagues alike were impressed by the "new look" of my presentations. On my YouTube channel, I've started using them as well. The best part of Decktopus , definitely , is it's uniqueness.

Aspetti positivi:

* Unique design ** user-friendly interface *** Easy to operate **** Sublime and very sophisticated. ***** Wonderful Customer support system.

Aspetti negativi:

* Downloading speed is too slow. It takes a long time to get downloaded.
