Top 9 Slideshare Alternatives

SlideShare

The name Slideshare speaks for itself – it’s a slide-sharing service that brings your PowerPoint presentations online so you can easily share them with your colleagues, clients and business partners. Although it is totally free, some will find its functionality limited and look for a similar service with additional features Slideshare lacks.

iSpring Cloud

iSpring Cloud is a file-sharing service, which stands out among the others thanks to its support of PowerPoint animations and transitions (even on mobile devices); plus, you can play inserted audio and video files. Besides PowerPoint presentations, you can upload Word, Excel, PDF, text, audio, video, image, ZIP files as well as the projects created with iSpring desktop products. The maximum size of one uploaded file is 2GB.

Powershow.com and Authorstream.com are more like presentation databases, but with a subscription plan you can make your presentations private and even apply security settings. You also get your presentations almost in their original form, but only on desktop. Only Authorstream.com shows the static slides, while Powershow.com presentations become entirely unavailable.

authorSTREAM

Besides PowerPoint Presentations and PDF files, Authorstream.com supports Apple Keynote presentations and uploads files from both desktop and web. The service can play audio and video files inserted on slides as well as animations. The original PowerPoint transitions, however, cannot be reproduced. After uploading your presentation, you can generate an embed code for it. Another prominent feature is the conversion of PPT to MP4 video of up to 5 minutes long (limited to 1 conversion on the free plan). The total free storage and the maximum size of one upload is 100MB. Basic statistics are also available here. Authorstream.com offers 3 subscription plans, which allow you the following:

Hashdoc

Hashdoc is a minimalistic service for storing all kinds of documents: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, text files, and even basic graphic files (SVG and DXF). It is also a document-selling platform – you can connect your Hashdoc account to your bank account and earn money. The only obvious downside is that your PowerPoints turn absolutely static – no animations, no transitions, no audio or video. The maximum size of one upload is 150 MB with unlimited storage space.

DocDroid

Docdroid is pretty much like Hashdoc, although you cannot sell your content and get statistics on it. Again, Docdroid turns your PowerPoint presentations into static PDF-like documents. Besides PowerPoints, you can host Word, Excel, text and PDF files. Apart from that, you will get the following:

Google Drive

The answer to this question depends entirely on your needs. Since Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Box are file hosting services at their core, they work best with bigger files and three of them even have some editing options. They also have great features for collaborative work on files in big teams – commenting, editing, and revision history.

Microsoft OneDrive

OneDrive is a file hosting service from Microsoft with integrated online Office editors. Their functionality is limited, but is enough for the most basic tasks. Although only three transitions are supported, the majority of existing animations will be reproduced. On mobile devices, however, your content will turn static. You can also start a presentation from scratch since OneDrive is closely integrated with PowerPoint Online as well as with the other Microsoft online editors. While there is a 10GB limit for one uploaded file, the free storage plan includes only 5GB of space.

Box

Box.com is integrated with Microsoft Office Online tools and Google Docs. After you upload a presentation, you will be able to edit it live, or you can create a new one and automatically save it on your account. However, even if your presentation has audio and video elements, animations or transitions, you won’t be able to see them outside of PowerPoint Online. The free Personal Plan gets you 10GB of storage space with a 250MB file size limit.
