"Shorthand Makes Creating Captivating, Beautiful Slide Stories Effortless"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Shorthand?

The drag-and-drop user interface, along with beautiful template animations between slides, makes it easy for me to visualize how to present content in a way that feels captivating for the public. Basically, I look at what my next slide is, explore the different possibilities for showing it, try a few options, and without much trouble I find a way to seamlessly and beautifully present it. Since I’m not a programmer, designer, or animator, Shorthand is exactly what I needed to finish my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shorthand?

I’ve been having some problems changing certain title names, and sometimes there are blank spaces that I can’t delete. This makes some picture-and-text sections a little out of alignment. I believe I’ll be able to find solutions, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shorthand solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need to present an online exposition of a research I did for a newspaper in Brazil that is completing 100 years this year. Since I’m doing everything by myself (and I’m not a designer), I needed a software/website/app that would help me publish all this information in a beautiful and captivating way. Out of all the tools I tested, Shorthand came out on top.

My initial research covers the newspaper’s first 20 years of existence. Once the exhibition is finished (I’m still working on it), I’ll be able to apply for funds to continue the research for the other 80 years, which could become my main source of income for 2 to 3 years.
