“Additionally, the customer service is very limited.”

Rebecca H.

Cons

“There are a few technical components such as the system slowing down the presentation and sometimes it can kick users out of the session.”

“Class point doesn’t have a function for polls that are like multiple choice answers.”

Lynette S.

“The first version 1.0 caused several crashes of my system requiring PowerPoint reboot and deleting of old PowerPoint files. If the bugs get fixed this would be an amazing product.”
