Visme

Pros

- generate decks and presentation through AI, just list down in detail and let AI do its trick
- highly customizable, even after deck has been generated by AI
- power-packed feature to create a very nice looking deck
- offline and share functionality
- cloud-based, hence any changes are being saved immediately

Cons

- copy + paste a specific item from a slide to a different slide doesn't work really well
- a bit limited in terms of animation and transitional designs

Pros

Visme allows me to roll several tools into one and lets my content stand out among others in my industry. My brand has a certain "look" that Visme allows me to maintain throughout all my content.

Cons

Updates and upgrades come out so fast, it's hard to keep up! (if you count that as a drawback)

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

Ease of use, slide templates, beautiful pre-set brochures and infographics and reports.

This has stepped up all of our reporting, presentations and courses that we offer!

Cons

At times (not often) Visme encounters some issues when using the software. Sometimes certain functions and capabilities do not work, and the program needs to be closed and re-opened. However, each time we reach out to Visme, we have had excellent customer service.

Pros

I love the AI features to help enhance your projects. Visme are always improving and adding new helpful features to make creation time faster. The editing tools are also very helpful in creating images for projects outside of visme.

Cons

I do not dislike anything about Visme so i'll share some of my wishes for future improvements instead. I would like to see more detail on the activity dashboard and exporting to other formats to edit offline. I would also like to be able to create animated videos where I can create a scenario and the mouths of the charter nove based on my prompts.

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

Each feature in Visme is incredibly intuitive. It does what you expect without 9 extra steps. I also appreciate the community forum - developers listen to our needs/requests and we get a chance to test out new features & give feedback! The customer support is great.

Visme is a user-friendly tool that allows me to produce professional quality presentations, coursework & promotions at a cost that is affordable.

Cons

I have no complaints! Any time I have a concern or question, customer service and/or the Visme Community helps me through it!

Pros

I love how easy it is to download and integrate content into our website. I love the look of it and how fun it is!

Cons

It is very difficult to manage some aspects of the system, specifically resizing if the background (project size.) There was a resize button that allowed me to resize the project; however, it has been replaced with an AI option that does NOT work properly. When using AI to resize, it creates an entirely new project and doesn’t copy assets over the same. Resizing is a nightmare and I desperately want the resize button back. I’m also have reached out twice about this issue for help and have received no response whatsoever.

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

Visme is easy to use, and it is constantly introducing new features that help enhance the projects that you are creating. Visme also has several templates to choose from to help get you started with your project. Finally, there is a large library of media content that can easily be added to your project.

Cons

Often I create the content using my original ideas and materials, but because music audio is used from the Visme library, the overall project is subject to Visme's use policy.

Alternatives Considered

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

I love the templates and ease of use for bringing your ideas to life.

Cons

I think that the video/social aspect of the system is a little behind. Presentations and flat designs are top notch, but I dont find that the video feature and the sizing for things like reels, etc. are as high caliber or easy to export as other design software competitors.

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

Visme is so easy to use. You don't have to have any working knowledge of Photoshop, inDesign, or illustrator to make beautiful graphics, flyers, brochures, or even animated ads!

Cons

The video creation tools are a bit cumbersome and it's not always easy to swap out elements in the video templates. Also, when there is an issue with the tool, it may take a few days for their support team to fix it.

Pros

Early launches of new products that users can review and provide feedback on. Customer service is exceptional.

Cons

Pricing is much higher than comparable products and have to buy multiple licences. Storage limits.

Pros

Speed, mostly ease of use. Ability to export to PDF

Cons

The cost is WAY too high on a monthly. There needs to be a way to put the account on hold if you are not using it.

Pros

My team and I have been using Visme to make content for our company's intranet. The graphic and photo library has been super helpful to use, as well as the editing tools. It is much easier to resize images than how we used to edit photos in photoshop, and the animations that come with some of the graphics make out content more dynamic. It is powerful tool that is fairly easy to use! I was initially the only person using Visme, but once I showed my team its capabilities, everyone wanted a subscription.

Cons

There are glitches that happen when using the product sometimes. Ex: cutting and pasting with sometimes double paste what you want as well as the previous text you had pasted. And sometimes when you are working, the site can crash, and you have to refresh the page. These are inconveniences that do not prohibit work but can being aggravating at times.

Pros

Visme allows me to make professional looking presentations, documents, and graphics. My colleagues think I'm a graphic designer, and it's thanks to this product.

Cons

When you download versions that you may want to edit outside of the software, you'll encounter glitches. This is especially true of PPTs, though I'm not sure if these issues are Visme or Microsoft.

Alternatives Considered

Pros

I can easily and quickly make great content that is easy to understand, accessible, and high-quality. When I reached out to customer service, my question was answered and my problem was resolved right away.

Cons

It does take a long time to learn how to use some of the features. Sometimes I need to refresh the page or log out and back in.

Pros

Visme is my go-to content creation tool for flyers and alternative presentation slides. I say "alternative" because I am often forced to use PowerPoint but desire slides that stand out from other presenters. The templates for flyers make it a breeze to create high-quality advertisements when I am in a hurry.

Cons

For my use-case, the animations on slides I create in Visme do not always translate well to PowerPoint, but I have learned how to negotiate this when creating decks in Visme. Overall, I have nothing negative to say.

Pros

I can count on excellent templates for thought-starters. Their layouts, graphics and even texts are usually spot-on and saves me mountains of time. This is a platform that partners with you. They offer so many excellent templates for ANY kind of marketing and presentation. I'm astounded every time they come out with more offerings - they truly are making a difference in this game.

Cons

In the beginning, the support was a bit slow, probably due to the time-difference. But, once we connected and talked through the issues I was having, my projects have become a breeze.

Pros

Visme is great for creating and sharing presentations. It really excels there. All other features are mediocre but functional.

Cons

The cost to utilize Visme to create and export courses.

Pros

How they are always working to make the platform better. They also provide so many tutorials and webinars so we know exactly how to use all the new rollouts.

Cons

I have not experienced any cons for what I utilize Visme.

Pros

The data visualization and features they have for it. I was able to enable graphs from Google Looker Studio.

Cons

The freedom to move and adapt some elements within the presentation (text, images, decors, etc.)

Pros

Visme has been great for customizing Google Sheets data into graphics that I was able to use in our yearbook. My staff was able to easily use our theme color scheme, which wasn't an option in Google Sheets.

Cons

There are only a limited amount of templates for free. The input of the data was a little more involved for a beginning user, but I am more tech savvy and could figure it out.

Pros

Easy to create graphics and short videos for social media and presentations that look professional.

Cons

Would like more selection of templates and photos.

Pros

The thing I like the most about Visme is that is a tool you can use to create contents either for your presentations, or marketing even publicity. This app is good because it gives you the templates and the desings if you dont have your own.

Cons

There is nothing I dislike about the app, it is user friendly and comes with a good price.

Pros

Great graphics
Great templates
Easy to use

Cons

Sometimes the size of the template does not convert well to the PDFs

Pros

I like Visme because it creates infographics we need for websites and marketing purposes. It can create presentations, social media graphics and videos to drive traffic. It has a rich library with attractive templates, icons, images, and colors so you can always find the resources you need for your inforgraphics or presentation.

Cons

It requires some skills to make good use of it. Unless you have the skills or are ready to learn how it works, you might not make the most out of this tool. Some templates are not free so you might incur extra costs to make content that stand out.

Pros

There is usually always a template that meet my needs.
Having images and creatives built into the platform without having to outsource it is a big plus.

Cons

Not really anything I can think of, there's nothing I dislike for Visme.

Pros

Visme goes well-beyond what other infographic/graphic design platforms offer. We have been able to build resources that function similar to a microsite and place a quick link within our main company website that is utilized by both internal and external people to conduct daily business. These resources were not available prior to bringing Visme into our tech stack and now serve thousands and thousands of people, providing precious resources in a convenient manner. The best part of all... it was easy to do, looks FANTASTIC, and is a great user experience for our audiences being served.

Cons

There are random "glitches" that occur which provide minor disruptions, but in the same respect, the Customer Support team has been very responsive.

Pros

Visme is incredibly user-friendly and easy to navigate, even for marketing teams without extensive design skills. It offers a wide range of features and numerous templates tailored for various purposes, making content creation seamless. A standout advantage is that Visme regularly introduces new features, keeping the platform fresh and continuously improving, which users greatly appreciate.

Cons

Support based in the US for European clients : It would be great to have support based in Europe to avoid time zone differences. At times, platform bugs slow down our work, and we end up waiting an entire day for a response

Pros

Ease of use. I’m not a graphic designer but wanted to be able to present more professional documents and this was just what I needed

Cons

A description of each icon as not always obvious and lack of landscape documents.

Pros

What I like most about Visme is the ability to put together presentations easily. It also has the benefit that multiple collaborators can edit at the same time.

Another point in its favor is the ease of receiving support in case of possible problems.

Cons

What I like least about visme is how slow it works, even if I use a laptop with an i7, 32 RAM and a graphics card it still works slow, its performance is very bad.

Another negative point of Visme is the management of uploaded files, for example, if you want to download multiple PDF presentations you cannot, you have to download them 1 at a time. Also, if you want to clean your image file, you will have to be very patient, in our workspace we have more than 10 gigabytes of images loaded, and if you want to clean up old files, you will have to be very patient, as I mentioned before , the charging performance is very bad.

Pros

It is so easy to find templates that look great but help you quickly produce a range of items from presentations, reports, checklists and social media graphics.

Cons

I've been using Visme for a few years and they keep making improvements. The things that used to annoy me have been fixed, so I have no dislikes.

Pros

I liked that there was a format to make more interactive presentations, the main reason for my initial purchase.

Cons

I did not like their image options, their templates were rather sterile and corporate and their audio recording options were limited. BUT most importantly their online app was unreliable and would crash regularly. Canceling their plan was also complicated and confusing. I was billed when I thought I had canceled and their customer service was Shi*. There is no phone number and they would not refund me even though I was not using their program any more.

Pros

Visme is an amazing tool for content creation! As the digital marketing manager of growing company, having amazing templates and great stock photos and videos is absolutely essential. The high quality of the assets and templates saves me time and improves the quality of the content that we have to produce!

Cons

Editing is a bit trickier in Visme compared to Canva, which has a lot of AI capabilities that are very easy to use. I find myself editing in Canva and then uploading in Visme to use the better templates, stock photos, and other assets.

Pros

Intuitive for the most part, Visme offers templates and designs to help you get started or implement into your own designs.

Cons

Sometimes I think there are bugs that make it difficult to maneuver in a document you are working in.

Pros

innovative design tools that flow logically. I can have my employees use it with ease and very little learning curve.

Cons

there seem to be some occasional glitches that can make working take longer than expected

Pros

Collaboration tool and the support from the Visme team if needed is always second to none

Cons

Some stability issues, and minor bugs which are being addressed and acknowledged by customer service

Pros

Visme has a comprehensive library of predesigned templates (editable) in various formats. The templates can be used across different platforms and channels, and are compatible with other programs.

Cons

There is a learning curving when using this product.

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

Lots of high-quality templates to choose from, though they are not easy to search.

Cons

I don't understand why anyone would choose this software when Canva and AdobeExpress are out there. The interface is clunky, the design tools are limited, and the rendering is also limited.

Pros

It was easy to use and can find most anything you need to design.

Cons

The cost was high and you have to per for more then one user

Alternatives Considered

Pros

The product needs little to know training and the outcome is professionally polished graphics.

Cons

There is definitely a limit when it comes to detail work with photo and graphic editing, but for the price, it is a great value.

Visme is an intuitive tool for data visualization, making it easy to create professional-quality visuals. Its seamless integration with our website has simplified embedding projects, ensuring they display perfectly across devices. Collaboration is also a breeze, with straightforward project sharing and real-time feedback features that have streamlined our workflow. Overall, Visme has significantly enhanced our visual content creation and productivity. Highly recommended!

It would be even better if it included the option to export projects to SVG format.

Alternatives Considered

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

As an engineering firm many of our standard templates are black and white report documents. Utilizing Visme allows my team and I to create visually appealing, easy to read studies, plans, and proposal materials.

Cons

There is not much that I don't like about Visme.

Pros

The visuals look great! I am always getting compliments from clients on how easy the graphs are to view and the general aesthetics.

Cons

Over the past few months, it seems like it's gotten 'buggy'. I have a tough time updating widgets and often have to click on the widget several times before it opens to edit. I have sometimes had to close out of my project and open it again to get everything to work. It's frustrating and adds time to my process for sure.

Pros

Ease of use - Cutting, pasting, resizing, image edits...Everything is intuitive and quick to change

Cons

Occasional resizing glitches - Liked it better before the "AI" version of custom resizing was implemented

Pros

It is very useful for presentations.
Have a big library and you can customize many features as you like.
If you don't have any designs and templates you can find it here.

Cons

Is not a very friendly for use program.
Have unique designs to make your projects but comparing to other programs is a little bit poor the library.

Pros

Everything, I like the way it looks and the ease of use.

Cons

Cannot convert to a word document. This would be the best upgrade.

Alternatives Considered

Reasons for Switching to Visme

Pros

I really like their templates which are accompanied by well written how to articles explaining the use case for a template. I like that the tool can be used for many different use cases like presentation, sales, social media, learning, courses, etc. I like that the company is constantly innovating and adding new feature like AI integration.

Cons

The only thing I don't like that not enough people are familar with the tool and it is challenging to get new people to want to use it. I think Visme could improve their video library like other competitors as things move more toward video.

Pros

The ease of use, the availability of graphics and easy to modify templates save me time and effort while allowing me to create engaging and aesthetic presentations, flyers, and infographics.

Cons

There are sometimes bugs in the system but this seems to resolve within 24 hours.

Alternatives Considered

Pros

I really like Visme because it offers really nice templates, both online and downloadable projects, and the selection of typography meets our expectations.

Cons

Sometimes there are bugs that can be annoying but it's not major.

Pros

I find when I design a presentation in vise, I have memo options to make it looks much better than if I design it anywhere else. The graphics and animations are above the rest.

Cons

People I work with don't love when I use vise because they need an account o go in and make any edits. As a non-profit it is too expensive to create multiple accounts, so we have to transfer my work out of visme for others to collaborate.

Pros

I love how user friendly it is. There are tons of templates to choose from and it’s so easy to find one that fits your needs. I can quickly find something and have a document put together for last minute presenations.

Cons

There are so many templates!! It’s not really a con - but I get distracted easily. Lol
