 Detailed Information

Full Description:

Visme is a web-based data visualization tool that helps individuals and teams to translate data into engaging content in the form of presentations and infographics. The solution is used globally by various professionals including marketers, educators, executives, and communicators. Visme can be accessed using any device and enables organizations to design and present content related to projects, initiatives, and programs in both online and offline modes. Visme can be used by teams to create and manage new projects. The solution allows team managers to organize projects by using a folder tree structure. Administrators and managers can assign role-based access of folders to their team members. The software also offers control over publishing and display settings and allows presenters to set time frames to advance slides automatically. Visme’s analytics feature helps to track the number of unique visitors who view the content as well as the average time spent by each visitor. Visme offers customizable presentation and infographic templates that can be edited by marketers to add video, audio, or record voice inside the editor itself. Users can also add third party content and set solid or gradient color backgrounds or upload images to be used as backdrops. The content can be published online, embedded to a website, shared on social media channels or downloaded as PDF or image file.

Advantage/ Disadvantage:

This is software that allows creating banners, infographics, animations, professional presentations, and graphics, among others. The user has a large number of templates that facilitate the creative experience and offers endless customization possibilities. The best of all is that Visme has a free version available with which the user can familiarize him and take his first steps in the world of visual content design before acquiring one of his premium versions. The options for downloading the work done are also very varied, since the content is downloaded as an image, PDF, HTML5 or inserted into a website or blog. The main disadvantage of Visme is that in the free version the created works necessarily include their logo, in addition to only allowing three active projects at the same time, so this version is useful more than anything if you need to carry out projects sporadically or just to learn how to use the tools before buying any of the free versions you have available. Sometimes the template choices can be overwhelming. But, I can safely say that I’d rather have too many choices than not enough!

Good for Teaching:

Visme is a new online tool that allows anyone to create engaging presentations and infographics, regardless of graphic design ability. It’s perfect for busy art teachers because there are lots of pre-made templates. Teachers can make their lessons more engaging by using infographics, instead of text-based presentations, to present a new concept. Teachers can assign the creation of infographics as a medium to present the results of a project. Teachers can learn different ways to organize and present information. With drag and drop tools, you can create an infographic or presentation for your class in no time. You have the ability to add links and YouTube videos with the click of a button, which can help pique student interest. If you want to create a teaching portfolio for your next interview, Visme would be a great choice for making graphics.

Good for Learning:

Students can enhance their visual communication skills by learning how to simplify and translate complex information into visuals with text. Students can create infographics, instead of the typical presentation, as a way to communicate their ideas. Students can design timelines to visualize chronological events. Students can compare two or more concepts or things using comparison infographics. Students can visualize how vocabulary words can be used in different circumstances using infographics.
