Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Customizable templates, song layouts, themes, overlays and so much more makes it one of the Best Presentation Software. The technical support from the creator also helps out very much.
  • It's probably the only FOSS option in its category that actually has a modern aesthetic to it. And the theme is totally configurable, including the font! It seems like such a small thing, but it's surprisingly rare to see. Most of the default settings are great, and adjusting things is easy. The structure and organization of the projects, presentations, templates, etc., is fairly easy to find, and simple to work with. The out-of-the-box stage and remote tools are fantastic! Oh, and it's *fast*. Running a FreeShow configuration similar to our current setup (on ProPresenter), I can go from launching the program to presenting in seconds, and it's barely putting a strain on the machine. I can actually do *more* in FreeShow with multiple outputs, where in ProPresenter we'd practically be cooking the CPU trying to do the same thing.

Cons

  • As the software is in its early stages, you'll find some bugs but that even isn't a issue because the bugs are being removed on a regular basis by the creator.
  • It's still early enough in development that you run into situations where the program gets stuck on a setting or screen, and needs to be restarted. These feel pretty random. It's not quite to the point that we can swap this in for our main presentation software, but it's really close.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Free. Nice features. Free songs database. Easy integration with many free versions of Bibles and themes. Easy with which songs can be added or existing ones edited. Themes can be easily added and customized.

Cons

  • Sometimes primary monitor displays unto projected monitor in extended view when trying to perform other tasks on the primary system (laptop/desktop). Songs in the database display with chord progression, so you have to manually edit those out of the songs, though I understand that the beta 3.0 version has an option where that can be turned off. Support is not readily available, but being free and having a detailed manual makeup for those.
