Making it super accessible for students and youth. > > **Cons**: I think there's room for improvement as there is in all developing apps/ softwares. More features aren't necessary but would be a nice to have. > > Effective and cost free for a student or youth like myself. ----- ### "Easy to use and can access anywhere\!" — 4.0/5 > **Jason** | *3 January 2026* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The platform is very easy to use, and our city has adopted Google as its official platform. I also like that I can access it and make changes in a variety of ways, while also providing edit access to other users. > > **Cons**: The program does have some limitations feature wise in comparison to Microsoft PowerPoint. Specifically, PowerPoint has adopted artificial intelligence features. > > I use it on a weekly basis. I create a ton of slide presentations and like that I don’t have to save the slides to a thumb drive. I just need to login and open the presentation. Also, like that, I can pull a sly presentation up on my phone for review and preparation. ----- ### "User friendly for collaboration" — 4.0/5 > **Francisco Jose** | *23 November 2023* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Overall, Google Slides stands as a powerful and versatile presentation tool, particularly for those seeking a user-friendly, collaborative, and cost-effective solution. > > **Cons**: It may not offer the full range of advanced features found in other software like PowerPoint, its strengths make it a compelling choice for a wide range of users. > > I recommend for fast and efficient presentation creation in a collaborative environment ----- ### "Awesome classroom management tool" — 5.0/5 > **Judy** | *16 May 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I use Google Slides every day in my classroom to project daily assignments on my classroom TV screen. It is a valuable tool I have grown to depend on in my classroom to start our school day. Students come into my classroom, they see the assignment on the screen, and quietly get started. What a blessing\! > > **Cons**: Occasionally, if I let my mouse hover over slideshow, it will change out of the full screen mode. I then have to click on it again and move the mouse. > > I use Google Slides every day in my classroom. It is a great way to project assignments on my TV screen as students come into my classroom. I also use it to project a daily riddle on the screen as students come back to my classroom after lunch. Google slides helps me maintain an orderly, well managed, quiet classroom. ----- ### "Google Slides is good but could be amazing with a few tweaks" — 4.0/5 > **Jennifer** | *27 November 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that Google Slides is free and easy to use. Power Point has more features, but Google Slides is the way that schools are heading and many of my Power Points can be opened in Google Slides. > > **Cons**: I feel like the sound component does not transfer from PowerPoint to Google Slides well. It is a piece that is missing. > > My overall experience with Google Slides is good. I enjoy using it, but do believe that there could be more features like slide transitions and visuals choices. ----- Page: 1 / 261\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/284335/google-slides?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/284335/google-slides) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
