iA Presenter Review
I want to tell you how easy it is, how quickly I can create presentation slide decks with iA Presenter. It’s been a game-changer for me.
Finally, I have a tool for ending the tyranny of powerpoint, or at the very least throwing pebble at the presentation monster that has downgraded the way we communicate.
I’ve used the iA Presenter Beta in my work since early spring, 2022. I teach university classes and prepare between three and five slide decks each week, both for students in my classes and colleagues in workshops and meetings. I need to communicate with research teams updates on our data and progress. I’m not in the business of shiny and flowery that distract viewers from my message,
It’s the story that matters, it’s the words that matter and iA Presenter has become my first-rate companion to iA Writer in crafting these stories in real-time.
I shouldn’t be surprised that iA Presenter comes to us from the same folks that brought us iA Writer, yet another tool that eschews fancy templates and guides writers to focus on the words, on the message we need to communicate.
iA Presenter achieves the same goal, taking my focus off how the slide looks and guides me to focus on the story I want to tell. The app does the design work. I do the message creation and that’s how it should be.
