Presentations on the go, no hustle no complicated slides or creating slides manually since they have ready made templates which makes it easy for me and my time to set up a pitch deck in minutes.

It is a slightly expensive to use and might be suitable for business teams rather than individuals.

Soap Opera Sequence Expert

The business problem I'm solving with Slidebean is how to make visually boring presentations much more energetic, and interesting.

Pitch Deck Designer

With the analytics, my clients can see which investors viewed their decks and how long they viewed each slide or whether the investor finished the deck.

So far Slidebean is the best solution i've found that can do this. If they focus more on webinars they will be perfect.

You just enter all the information and visuals and get your design.

It seems to focus mostly on pitching to VC's to get funding as a Startup company.

Right now, you must upload your videos to Vimeo, YouTube or Wistia and set them to "public" which is not ideal for my clients wishing to protect information.

Would like to see more templates especially one geared towards agency use.

Useful in creating awesome, eye catching business or acedemic presentation.

I was looking for a beautiful pitch deck and that's exactly what I found on Slidebean.

You do need to upgrade your slidebean account to doing anything meaningful

Honestly, I don't dislike it except for that the premium are a little bit pricey.

The layout is not that easy to use, wasted lot of time designing the slides.

Pricing is pretty reasonable when upgrading

Resizing and scaling difficulties

President

It was difficult to size the boxes to be exactly what I needed because I could not adjust them on one dimension only.

64% of reviewers feel negative about Visme’s resizing capabilities. Some users find it difficult to resize objects, images, or project backgrounds accurately, mentioning that scaling elements does not always behave as expected. They report that manipulating multiple objects or adjusting dimensions can be cumbersome, and resizing often distorts images or fails to maintain proportions. Reviewers also mention confusion over measurement units and a lack of flexibility when working with different page sizes, which complicates the design process for custom layouts.

Challenging text editing experience

Digital Strategy Sr. Specialist

Sometimes the usability is "not easy", for example, change the font of many elements or maintain the format, so it takes too much time to edit details.

71% of reviewers feel negative about Visme’s text editing features. Users say editing and formatting text can be unintuitive and time-consuming, especially when dealing with multiple elements or slides. They report issues with the undo function, inconsistent font changes, and difficulties in selecting or moving text boxes. Some reviewers find that copy-paste operations often result in formatting problems, and making bulk changes is cumbersome. These challenges lead to frustration, particularly for those managing complex projects or requiring precise text adjustments.

Reviewers indicate that these technical issues sometimes require refreshing the page or restarting the application, causing lost progress and inefficiency. Many feel that the platform’s reliability could be improved to provide a smoother design experience.

Cost and subscription concerns

61% of reviewers feel negative about Visme’s pricing. Users express concerns about the platform being expensive compared to alternatives, especially for freelancers or those who use it infrequently. They mention that many features and templates are locked behind premium plans, limiting options for free users. Some reviewers are dissatisfied with the strict no-refund policy and report difficulties with subscription management and customer support. These issues make some users feel that the cost does not always align with the value or flexibility they expect.
