## About Academic Presenter
Academic Presenter is a free software that harness video-game technology to create spectacular dynamic presentations. It combines capabilities of slide-based software products (such as PowerPoint and Keynote) with an infinite canvas (like Prezi). Users will have transitions between slides like PowerPoint and a dynamic, scalable, rotatable working area like Prezi. The ability mentioned above can help us to build a dynamic mind-map diagram from raster images or vector-based shapes as a skeleton for the details which can be again another mind-map, media or even traditional slides.

  ### 11. I strongly recommend this software!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Reza Y. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2015

**What do you like best about Academic Presenter?**

When I was a college student, we usually were made to prepare presentations, we started by gathering required information, then arranging them in the form of a series of slides in Microsoft PowerPoint. We started our presentation with a table of contents, then speaking about each topic slide by slide. After 10 slides when presenter looked at audience, he/she would find them bored and lost in the slides. In other words, students would not recall table of contents, therefore they could not link different topics in their minds, so they could not follow the presenter. 

I always wondered if we could do something to avoid this problem. Before seeing Academic Presenter, I could not even guess that there could be another way of presenting materials. It showed me that there is a better way of presenting materials. After that, I realized that there are softwares with similar functionalities out there. But I found some of them too expensive regarding their functionalities and also very large in size. Nearly all of them were online.

Something that is very specific to Academic Presenter is its respect to users' privacy. It is offline, letting the users store their important materials on their systems. Something strange about this software is its small size. It is very small in comparison to its rivals. With lots of built-in tools, it is not only stronger but also smaller than other ones. Also It is completely free! Everyone who uses PowerPoint must rethink about the way they make their presentations. Because in this software it is possible to always show and remind the mind-map to the audience. So, there is no need to table of contents, everything is graphical and lots of graphical effects can/will be implemented in it.

And the final word, Programmers' supports and efforts are great and valuable. I think with users/reviewers' comments, this software can go up to the top very fast! I strongly recommend using it!


**What do you dislike about Academic Presenter?**

As we know in all softwares, the more tools, the more complexity. It is unavoidable. The only disadvantage in this software is that if you want to learn it by yourself only, you should spend some time to learn how to use it. You may also find it very complicated to learn. But once you learnt how to use it, you would find it easy to work! Fortunately, there are lots of tutorials in FaceBook, thanks to programmers! 
Also there may be some bugs and lacks in it, but they are trivial and ignorable regarding its great functionality!
   

**Recommendations to others considering Academic Presenter:**

It is risk free! Use it! Experience it! You will be attracted very soon!

**What problems is Academic Presenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am a Naval Architect. When presenting materials with this software, I have found great attentions of the audience. I think it is the first concern of each presenter and this software has a lot of things to reach this goal! 

  ### 12. Absolutely fantastic, budget friendly software.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anastasia (Annie) K. | Media Associate, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 06, 2015

**What do you like best about Academic Presenter?**

This product is free, but works just as well as products I have spent money on. Not to mention, it combines the features of Powerpoint with the features of Prezi in one convenient package. It's really fast and flexible, and so easy to use. There are a lot of features and options.

**What do you dislike about Academic Presenter?**

There are a couple of bugs that I think are getting fixed, and a couple of improvements in UI that could be done, otherwise, no complaints.

**Recommendations to others considering Academic Presenter:**

Definitely try this software out! I was extremely impressed by the fact that it is free, but has so many different features. 

**What problems is Academic Presenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This software helps solve the problems of presenting and sharing information. It has the benefit of combining features that a program like Powerpoint and a program like Prezi would have separately, and is great in academic settings.
