There is a very small learning curve in comparison to other softwares, and a variety of great templates that make it easy to have beautiful presentations. I also love the collaborative aspect of slides, and have used it for many group presentations.

Summary: Overall, I highly recommend this for any user needing slides. I would say that it's even better than its paid competitor, Powerpoint.

Negative: It can be tricky to figure out how to setup a custom-designed slide template.

Summary: Everything in Google and Microsoft's office suites are pretty reliable and can be interchangeable with each other if you keep track of your file types. Google Slides is a great, free replacement for Powerpoint if you don't want to pay for it and don't have access to an .edu email. I find students tend to prefer using the Google office suite products over Microsoft's, and when I was a student, this was the case for my peers as well. Students won't have to download anything and only need to be able to work a browser. Collaboration is easy, but you'll need a good internet connection while you work.

Positive: It works essentially exactly like Powerpoint. Whatever you can do in Powerpoint, you can do in Slides and themed slides you find online for Powerpoint will also work in Slides too. Professionally, I usually went with Powerpoint, but during my college years I preferred Slides because I typically found it easier to use in group projects. You can also easily work in Slides and then switch over to Powerpoint if you need to do some offline work elsewhere.

Negative: Unlike Powerpoint, you'll need an internet connection to keep working. If your connection isn't good, be prepared for a lot of frustration if you don't have another similar program on hand. Like Sheets, I've had some times where it just froze for seemingly no reason, but this didn't happen enough to make it annoying or unusable.

Summary: Overall the best alternative of PowerPoint. Usage can be done from any device and can add the notes if required. Easily collaboration with the team members. Works very easily and little or no training required for making presentations

Positive: For making presentations, sharing with the team, group working etc can be done easily with google slides. It provide all the tools of Presentation slide with animations. All the slides will made easily and save on drive as well. Can be used from anywhere anytime.

Negative: On mobile application, the animation slightly buffering might be due to low ram usage or network strength. Menu bar shows icons only and full details not visible.

Summary: I am using Google Slides from the very start of the product. My main reason to use Google slides was that the desktop presentation application cannot handle large files and crashes so often in case of large data. Many people can work on the slides simultaneously because of online collaboration.

All of the content is saved to the drive and is easily accessible in any format like pdf, ppt, and so on. I would definitely recommend slides for a group of people where collaboration is the key.

(+) Google slides provide very good recommendations for shapes, layouts, designs, and structures.
(+) Multiple collaborators can put comments on the presentation.
(+) One can easily export the presentation as pdf or ppt

Negative: (-) Editing slides is easy on desktop presentation compared with Google slides
(-) Importing slides from another presentation is not handy.

Summary: I thoroughly enjoy using Google Slides. It's very convenient being able to share projects effortlessly with other team members.

Positive: I really appreciate how user friendly Google Slides is, it's very simple to learn how to use it as it guides you through the process step by step. It's also helpful having the search option if you can't find a specific function on your own. I like being able to share the project with others and leave notes with commentary for presentation purposes.

Negative: It took a small period of adjustment after being used to Microsoft presentation.

Summary: I really like this program and use it for just about all my presentations whether for conferences or elsewhere.
