The popularity of PowerPoint cannot be disputed but the market share is quickly being eroded. The new applications seek to capitalize on other operating systems other than windows as well as offer alternatives for graphics and idea pitching. That said, what is better than PowerPoint for presentations? The list is based on the options offered by the alternative software and how these options make presentation easier.

Powtoon- this application makes it interesting to tell the story as well as present facts. It beats the others by offering excellent pitching story lines and attaching emotions to the presentation. The introduction of animated characters inspires the audience as well as captures their attention. It allows you to tap the presentation into a video.

Prezi- this is the strongest contender for presentations where ideas or concepts do not flow linearly. The slides are zoomed out into an inactive transparent background and activated by zooming in when they are required. Its popularity is increased by the quick access option and the fact that you do not require back and forth movement.

Keynote- this is a Mac and PowerPoint-clone-specific app with very simple interface. It is easy to use and presents a very simple learning curve. It is gaining popularity at an admirable rate.

The online trial version is an indication of confidence in the app by the developers.

Haiku Deck- this is an iPad specific app for outdoor use. It allows you to prepare slides away from the office and include all the graphics you deem necessary. It offers an easy option of loading the graphics from your gallery, internet or taking photos directly from the iPad.
