Q.
What are some PowerPoint alternatives to jazz up our in-booth presentations?

A.
Given their ubiquitous use and potent yawner capabilities, PowerPoints can indeed be a snooze fest. Here are five replacement options to investigate.
➤ Canva: Canva's easy-to-use interface allows you to make gorgeous slides via a host of free images and design templates. You can upload your own photos and even add animation and music.
➤ Prezi: Packed with well-crafted slide templates, Prezi lets you create presentations with a nonlinear flow. But the real game-changer is that you can interact on video with your presentations in real time.
➤ Emaze: A great all-around option, Emaze enables you to whip up elaborate mixed-media slides. You can also import PowerPoint presentations into Emaze and upgrade them with new content.
➤ Powtoon: Powtoon is excellent for presentations with lots of animation and video that require you to display and explain dynamic concepts.
