Description

Online zooming presentation tool that has been built using Flash. It allows the user to add videos, images and text to make exciting presentations. An overview can be shown and then it is possible to zoom in on particular details. Fun to use but may be quite distracting if you are not used to this method of presenting. There are several different options from the free version to paid versions that at the top end have a download version.

Accessibility Testing Results

Prezi is an inaccessible program because the main function of the site is designed by flash. It is inappropriate for users who use keyboard and screenreader. There is also affect to users who have visual problems, they may get lost while using application.

# Test Score Summary
1Login, Signup and Other Forms Accessible Good The sign up page for the free version has a ReCaptcha which was really hard to hear so although in theory it has been made more accessible it was still difficult.
2Image ALT Attributes Poor The images that appear on all the pages do not appear accessible when used as links and there is no option to add alt attributes when uploading images
3Link Target Definitions Good Links on the web pages about the product are good and those on the program are understandable.
4Frame Titles and Layout Excellent There do not appear to be any frames but as it has been built using Flash without accessibility options the layout is not accessible.
5Removal of Stylesheet Poor It is sad that the website is accessible when the style sheet is removed. However the actual presentation tool disappears when the style sheet is removed which illustrates how inaccessible it is to screen reader and keyboard users.
6Audio/Video Features Fair The only way to provide alternatives to media imported is to add it to the actual presentation and realistically one would have to provide a completely different format for those with visual difficulties.
7Video/animations - audio descriptions Fair These would have to already be embedded within the imported file as an extra to any animations or videos. Realistically alternative formats would have to be offered.
8Appropriate use of Tables Excellent There are no tables used for content or design on the web pages or within the presentation tool.
9Tab Orderings Correct and Logical Poor On the web pages tab order is good and logical but sadly the actual presentation tools are not accessible via a keyboard.
10Page Functionality with Keyboard Poor The web pages are reasonable accessible with a keyboard but the presentation tool cannot be accessed via keyboard only.
11Accessibility of Text Editors Poor There are no real text editor, the presentation tool just adds a text box and there are options to make the text a heading or bold. It is not keyboard or screen reader accessible. Some text to speech programs could access the text when in edit mode.
12Appropriate Feedback with Forms Fair It is hard to grade this one when using the presentation tool. If the text does not appear on the screen you know you have done something wrong but it is not screen reader accessible.
13Contrast and Colour Check Good There are several themes for the presentation and if you choose a white with black background or high contrast it is possible to make easy to read screens.
14Page Integrity when Zooming Excellent This is good which ever browser is used and the presentation tool has its own zoom features.
15Text size, style, blinking elements and Readability Excellent Limited text sizing choices are possible when making a presentation but there is no blinking elements unless a user chooses to add an animation and all text can be made readable.
