    It's as good as MS PowerPoint. Just the default templates are a bit old looked but in the other hand it's 100% open-source and has a truly open format.

    Keynote has almost all of the advanced features in powerpoint as well as some unique to it, it's just as if not more powerful then powerpoint from a graphic design & slide design perspective and (assuming everyone has an apple device) the real time collaboration is comparable to google slides (better than power point's in my experience) and it has an easier to understand UI/UX then powerpoint
