Presentation Manager

There are several presentation softwares out that do a good job of organizing songs, graphics, video, and scripture to be sent to a projecter and then to your screen. We have had the priviledge to review many over the years. Some have had good features and others not so good. Some are harder to learn and use than others.

When looking for a software that will work best for your church, there are many things to consider. Do I want a software I can grow into if I am not there yet? Is this software easy to learn and teach? Will this software handle two monitors? Will the pastor use it for his sermons? Will you want to use it to show video clips?

If you answer is yes to all of these, allow us to introduce you to one of the better multimedia softwares available for the church.
