“The free show is a cost-effective, customizable solution for business, enabling smooth presentations, creative content creation, and structured display without technical difficulties ”

Siddalingesh A.

Cons

“Usable copy purchases are somewhat limiting or intimidating. ”

Michael G.

CFO

“The editor box although very large, is fixed and unable to resize like MS 6 does, not does it mirror the main display (even in presenter mode, it does not mirror the display screen. )”

Jim H.

Pastor

“Sometimes it's a bit slow on loading songs and scripture slides. ”

Michael W.

Associate Pastor

Cons

“Some difficulty with creating new songs within FreeShow with typing into the edit boxes (v0.9.2) but can type in Notepad or text or similar software and import that way also the database likes to delete itself in this version”

Ryan K.

A/V/I.T. and Worship Director

“even though freeshow comes with user-friendly interface, there is no online guide on the usage of the software, this creates a notion that the tool is a complex in its operation therefore there should be more materials on the operation of the tool.”

nick g.

content creator

“free show lacks features of paid presentation software, and lacks documentation, making it challenging to learn potentially prone to bugs”
