Prezi will launch at 5th of April

Prezi LogoGood news first; according to VentureBeat, Prezi will open its gates to the masses next month, at 5th of April. You can check my prezi review if you want an early look of the upcoming service.

Here comes the bad news; pricing scheme seem to be surfaced with the launch plan and there will be three plans available to the users. Which are; Free (on-line only, all information shared), Enjoy ($57 per year, only works online) and Pro ($160/year, on-line and down-loadable).

Sharing what you’ve created might not be problem for most of the users but being not able to download and use your presentations offline will definitely hurt free users. Anyways, Prezi is a really innovative tool for creating slick presentations and definitely worth a try.

Update: It looks like its not the presentations that free users are not able to download, but the new “offline editor”. See comments for details.

  • hi ali,

    thank you for following prezi. I think we should have to clarify the pricing scheme. You will be able to download your prezi to show offline as you can now. It's a very important feature.
    We don't want to decrease the features.

    For Pro account we give a brand new offline editor (like an out-of-the-box product). Why only for Pro account? Because we would like people to share their prezis what we can't enforces with the offline version.

  • Thanks for the clarification Peter.

    I was disappointed when I read the news on VentureBeat, but now happy to see that it was a misunderstanding (updated the post). Offline editor would be really useful, and I'm sure it will worth a subscription.

    I'm really impressed with Prezi and I'm thinking to use Prezi for my thesis defense in June. Please keep features and improvements coming.

    Also, good luck with your next funding raising.
