Prezi can now fade content in and out, and can still zoom and pan to areas, although this is very limited. A user can’t swap the type of Topic once content has been added, other than to copy and paste it into a new Topic, and delete the old. Prezi zooms to the Topics and Sub-Topics, and then back out to the main presentation view. This set up can be an advantage if you need help with structure but is limiting too, particularly for designers and more complex presentations. There are two types – a Planet or Stack, and they ‘hang’ in front of the background image. Instead of a flexible Prezi path, Prezi Next now has a new system of Topics to organise a presentation.

A desktop app for working offline – which syncs to online account.A blank canvas, flexible path and deep-dive zoom.An online Flash-based platform for creating, editing, collaborating and sharing.It has a reasonable level of functionality within the software, but the flash-based system can be a little unreliable. Prezi Classic has a blank canvas, and the freedom to explore the ‘Big Picture’, zooming in for emphasis and panning for distinction. If you already had a Prezi account before the launch of Prezi Next, you still have access to Prezi Classic.Īnyone starting an account after the launch will have only Prezi Next. It seems Prezi realised that they needed to offer a more structured option to the blank canvas on a more reliable platform, but unfortunately as we’ll see, have lost flexibility, functionality and their original USP. In April 2017 Prezi introduced a totally new Prezi platform called Prezi Next, and the ‘old’ version is now known as Prezi Classic. It was fluid, dynamic and different, but because of that lack of structure, and most people making use of every zoom, spin and pan feature, Prezi often became known for dizzying presentations that were confusing for the audience. Prezi was new, organic, exciting and one of the first SaaS platforms, although not without its critics. Prezi helps you organize your thoughts and deliver them in a clearer way that really makes an impact on your audience and helps them reach that ‘ah-hah’ moment faster. Their vision was to give users the freedom to create a presentation on a blank canvas. Prezi was created by Peter Arvai, Péter Halácsy and Ádám Somlai-Fischer, responding to what is often called ‘Death by PowerPoint’. Lesley’s article will help you to work out whether or not you should be using Prezi when designing your next presentation, and for those who missed the webinar, here’s your chance to watch.
Lesley recently took part in the Presentation Guild webinar, Get to Know Prezi – Everything you always wanted to know about Prezi but didn’t even know to ask.
Prezi Next, Prezi’s latest incarnation, was launched recently as their most powerful presentation platform yet but what do its users really think of it? Today we catch up with Lesley Barringer, a designer and committed Prezi user, who gives us her considered opinion.
