Present slides across phones, tablets, and computers
BackUpPlan distributes your presentation to phones, tablets, and computers at the same time. Present through your audience's own screens when the venue screen is unavailable—or use those screens alongside the venue display.
When the venue screen lets you down, keep presenting
A projector problem, an inaccessible display, or a connection you cannot use does not have to stop your presentation. Give the audience your Speakable Address™ and present your slides on the devices they have with them. BackUpPlan shines when you cannot use the room's screen.
When the venue screen works, give viewers a choice
Use the room's display while also letting viewers follow the slides on a phone, tablet, or computer. The presentation can reach every participating device at once, whether a viewer prefers a closer screen or wants to revisit a slide.
Use BackUpPlan alongside Zoom and other online platforms
Share your presentation screen through Zoom or a similar platform while also giving viewers a Speakable Address™, Name Address™, or Company Name Address™. They can follow the slides in a separate browser on the device of their choice. Your online platform continues to carry the meeting while BackUpPlan distributes the slides.
Give every presentation a Speakable Address™
A Speakable Address™ is a simple address for a specific presentation, such as BackUpPlan.net/JohnDoe/Strategy. Share it aloud, display it, send it to your audience, or offer its QR code. Viewers open the presentation in a browser on their phone, tablet, or computer.
A Name Address™, such as BackUpPlan.net/JohnDoe, points to the presentation you designate as current. A Company Name Address™, such as BackUpPlan.net/Acme/John, gives Business and Enterprise presenters a company-based address for their current presentation. These addresses make it easy to tell your audience where to follow.
Keep your audience with you—and let them revisit your ideas
Tandem Mode™ lets your audience see slides as you reveal them through BackUpPlan's Control Center.
Viewer Self Pacing™ lets viewers revisit slides you have already revealed, then return to the live slide. Someone can review a point they missed while you continue presenting.
Present as a team without coordinating control handoffs
Team Present™ allows up to five authorized users to control the shared deck without having to coordinate handing off control. It supports a team presentation in which different speakers can advance the slides when it is their turn. Check eligible plans and user permissions.
Get your slides in front of your audience
- Upload your presentation. BackUpPlan accepts Microsoft PowerPoint, Apple Keynote, and PDF files. Open the presentation when processing is complete.
- Choose viewer access. Use public access for anyone with the address, or choose passcode or account-required access.
- Share your address. Give viewers the Speakable Address™, Name Address™, or Company Name Address™ appropriate to your presentation. A QR code offers another way to open it.
- Present with Tandem Mode™. Advance slides through BackUpPlan's Control Center. Audience members follow in browsers on phones, tablets, or computers and can use Viewer Self Pacing™ to revisit revealed slides.
- Choose your leave-behind. Control whether viewers can download the original deck, a PDF, or both, and when downloads become available.
What BackUpPlan presents
BackUpPlan distributes rendered slides. It does not provide animations, transitions, embedded video, captions, translation, reactions, or surveys. Review the rendered slides to confirm the layout and text look as intended.
Looking for the audience-following workflow from Microsoft Present Live?
Microsoft has deprecated Present Live in PowerPoint for the web. If you used it to put slides on audience devices, read our guide to sharing PowerPoint slides across devices. That is one use of BackUpPlan's broader distributed presentation capabilities.
Present to the screens your audience already has
Bring your PowerPoint, Keynote, or PDF presentation to BackUpPlan and let your audience choose how to follow.
