However, you can open keynote files, or find an alternative that can convert those files in a Windows suitable alternative. With that in mind, here are five alternatives for Apple Keynote for Windows.

2. LibreOffice Impress

This is the open source application most enthusiasts love to use. If you want Office compatibility without having to purchase Microsoft Office, this is the application you need. Thanks to the cross-platform availability, LibreOffice Impress is a reliable choice.

And it comes as a free version, compatible with newer formats like PPT, PPTX, and DOCX files. The interface is constantly redesigned to match the needs of the users. Now, some might say there is no continuity, but the changes are for the good of the users. Productivity was vastly increased with the last update, when Forms menu was added.

Pros

Free and open source application
Compatibility with Microsoft Office Formats

Cons

There is no option for real-time co-authoring
Lack of advanced features
No cloud storage

3: Google Slides

Google Slides is a web-based presentation software. It has access to G Suite and other Google Apps. Initially, the application is free, but if you want access to more advanced features, you will have to purchase G Suite subscription plan. With that in mind, some of the features include video embedding, collaborative editing, animations, and more.

Price is between $5 per month for the basic version, and $25 per month for the enterprise option. Since Google Slides is an application available in the Apple's App Store as well, it makes a good alternative for Keynote for Windows 10.

Pros

User-friendly interface
Loads fast
Multiple users can edit the presentation at the same time

Cons

Limited options for animations
Not easy to embed a video
Doesn't keep formatting when open in PowerPoint

4: Prezi

Prezi is another free-form presentation software. It is great for creating presentations that are informal and with unstructured information. It is unique in a way that there are no slides. Instead of using slides like Keynote and PowerPoint, Prezi creates presentations that zoom in and out of a single canvas.

The presentations focus in on content, and then fly across the canvas to other content (text, images, videos, or anything else). The beauty of the software is that it allows anyone with an idea to create dynamic and unique non-linear presentations. However, the downside is that you are limited in what you can, as there are not many animations. It is all about zoom in and zoom out.

5: Canva

Designed as a graphic tool for unexperienced and unskilled users, Canva is a free, but premium online graphics too. It is extremely simple to use, with wide range of features that can help you out. Among the many features you can find drag and drop design creation, but also illustrations, layouts, and fonts. You can easily turn your idea into a design that can be shared, printed, or shown as a presentation. You can create your own layout, customize pre-made layouts, or choose any of the thousands of templates.
