SlideRocket Enters Public Beta

September 18th, 2008 (1:40pm) Scott Blitstein 12 CommentsTweet This

SlideRocket, the online presentation designer and manager we raved about back in March has flipped opened their doors and entered an open public beta phase.

SlideRocket offers an extremely impressive set of tools for creating and distributing presentations, and as they move into this next phase they have also added some really nice collaboration functionality that lets you share presentations, slides and specific assets with others in your organization.

Take the online tour and then grab your free beta account – if you’re looking to make an impression with your next presentation, SlideRocket won’t disappoint.

SlideRocket still have some kinks in it. I tried their tour several times and it always shuts down in the middle of the slide show. The whole window shuts down, where I have to go back into the internet to get the SlideRocket website again. This is a bit frustrating.

And it doesn’t load up on Ubuntu. It seems to assume that you have Windows.

@Christi – thanks for raising the ‘tour’ issue! We are looking to roll out a new version next week which will take care of any ‘freezing’ that you were seeing – although we never saw the browser crash it was definitely a frustrating bug. Please feel free to send me an email if you notice any other issue.

It doesn’t work well with Chrome as yet and is very slow.
