- daemon13 14y agoIn my place we routinly use PowerPoint presentations 10-25MB with embedded Excel, images, videos. Can I assume based on your design that you will handle that? Don't want to be snarky, but guys... may be you add smth else to design? Like what you can and can not do... The above was feedback, btw I like the design :-)
- webwanderings 14y agoYour website is not telling me what it does and how. It doesn't matter if you have a Pricing link.
- gingerlime 14y agoI think it is telling about the what ("Live broadcast your presentations to mobile devices, tablets and laptops of your audience - no matter whether you are in the same room or in different parts of the world"), but I agree, not so much about the how.
- davidjgraph 14y agoAgreed, I just don't understand the scope of the tool. Do you have to supply the complete presentation and all it does is the commenting and distribution? An example of a web site trying to be a little too minimal.
- gingerlime 14y agoit looks neat, but I wonder how it handles content flow / scaling on smaller screen sizes. Also, the first thing I thought after clicking is "I wonder if they should get the presentat.io domain name"
- shloime 14y agoThis needs something that shows how it works. I wouldn't sign up with no visuals.
- YPetrov 14y agoI think I get the idea of the product, but with the information you have provided - I can never be 100% sure. First, I would suggest adding a demo video on the front page. If you like your page to have as little content as possible - that's fine, but unless you add something small that tells a lot (like a video), I suggest many people will just give up very early on. Second, the "used by" section. I think that if you manage to get testimonials from individuals, it will look better and feel more personal. "SYNCED PRESENTATIONS TO ALL DEVICES" - I don't get why this is formatted this way? I'd put it in the center with another smaller sentence underneath that briefly summarises the product. I think what you offer is pretty neat (if I have managed to understand it correctly) but I feel you should do a bit more work re: selling it better.
- ahoyhere 14y agoAs far as I can tell, all this does is sync slides, right? No a/v? If it was a/v I would be very interested. Otherwise, we rolled our own slide-changing tool called Motif. Basically we export our slides to images (PNG), upload them to our server, run a script to generate thumbnails, and send students attending our JS workshops to the right URL. I get to see a gallery of slides and back/next -- and when I click to a slide, the update for all students is practically instantaneous. It works on any device with a web browser capable of Ajax. Yay Ajax polling. We syndicate a/v with Flash, using Influxis. So that video doesn't work on an iPad, but the slides do.
- katzebach 14y agowe're adding a/v this week. cool thanks for sharing.
- vemuruadi 14y agoNice design, good features to collaborate. But no option to delete uploaded presentations???
