Microsoft PowerPoint 2013

Microsoft Office is the world's most popular office software

with a variety of individual components for different areas of use. With Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 as part of the suite, you choose a globally popular solution for creating presentations of all kinds. These are used, for example, for business meetings or seminars at universities and other educational institutions. The 2013 edition is currently one of the most popular versions of PowerPoint, especially offering new strengths with its online features. Also in templates and designs and collaborative project work, PowerPoint 2013 offers new strengths and features.

Use of a variety of practical online features

The business world has become significantly more digital over the last decade, and online connection in meetings has become standard in many companies. Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 addresses this with new online features that were not found in previous generations of the office software.

From now on, it is possible to create interactive online presentations and share them over the internet. Audio and video can be easily embedded and individually accessed by each viewer of the online presentation. These presentations are stored via OfficeMix.com as a central platform, where Microsoft provides you with a variety of statistics and analyses.

Cloud usage for collaborative work

The internet not only offers the possibility to connect people in different locations for the presentation itself. The same applies to the creation and editing of content before the first public or business presentation. Through Microsoft OneDrive (not included in Microsoft PowerPoint 2013) as the standard cloud, PowerPoint 2013 allows all cloud users to access the presentations. Changes are, of course, presented in real time. This way, you and your colleagues can simultaneously see in the cloud which changes are being made. Instead of OneDrive, you can also use your website or your company's server as a cloud platform.

New features in templates, design, and editing

For easier creation of presentations, the 2013 edition offers many extras and variations in design. Various font families, color palettes, and more can be accessed with a few clicks and edited and combined according to individual preferences. A more precise implementation of animation paths is possible, and spacing between different objects on individual slides is now easier to align automatically. Especially practical: with a simple keystroke, you can create new, independent objects directly from multiple combined objects. There were also major expansions in the presenter tools area, for example with a magnifier for better viewing of statistics and graphs.

Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 - buy individually or as part of the Office suite?

If you are only interested in creating presentations for business purposes, PowerPoint 2013 as a standalone component is the ideal choice. More often, PowerPoint is purchased as part of the entire Office suite. Especially Word for text editing and Excel as a spreadsheet are other standard programs that are indispensable in daily office life. Compared to buying all individual components separately, you benefit from a price advantage if you choose the full suite. This also enables cross-application editing, for example to embed tables and statistics from Excel directly into your PowerPoint presentation.
