Pros/Cons
Pros
- It helps us keep a clean nice image on our screens at worship with a high level of reliability (which is a must.).
- They are an excellent company, their service is very good, their product does the job well and they are even willing to help those with older versions.
- It is so easy to create a fabulous looking presentation for our church services. We absolutely love this program it is a priceless asset to any organization needing song lyrics for their services.
Cons
- Some tabs are not well laid out and key functions are sometimes hard to find. Some changes from previous versions are illogical and make the whole experience somewhat frustrating.
- Extremely difficult to use. It will not read older MediaShout files, you cannot import older MediaShout files without losing all changes.
- The responsiveness of the customer service department was beyond poor. The first budget item I requested was funds for an alternative product.
Pros
- We love the ease of use. It's interface is so simple, we have 10 years olds that operate the computer for our Sunday service presentations and they love it.
- Overall, I’ve been pleased with our experience. When we’ve had issues (and their haven’t been many), we always received courteous and helpful responses from the SlideDog team.
- Ease of use and great animations. Good for creating flowcharts and detailed animations.
Cons
- Inconsistent with other software. I had a computer go down or have trouble a couple of years ago ad they offered nothing but deactivate.
- It was difficult for me to integrate the use of my phone as an external camera.
- The other option which I understand would be very difficult to do would be to be able to add things while the show is running.
