Showcase Workshop vs SlideVault

Showcase Workshop is a B2B sales enablement platform for organizing presentations, content, and training for sales teams. Presentations can combine slides, images, video, PDFs, and other files, then be downloaded to a device app for offline presenting. The maker lists apps for Apple devices, Android tablets and smartphones, and Windows tablets, laptops, and desktops. Showcase can connect with CRM tools such as Salesforce and HubSpot, while presentation form data can be downloaded as CSV. The depth of a CRM connection depends on the CRM and the customer’s technical skill. Shared material can be set to expire after 7 to 180 days, and users can retract shared files at any time. Showcase says access uses secure connections and names Amazon Web Services as its content delivery services provider. The plans are organized by user tier and include unlimited presentations. Listed prices are $29 a month for Small Business, $19 a month for Medium Business, and $10 a month for Enterprise; they are per user per month, in USD, with tax where applicable. Pricing is cumulative by user tier, with a stated billing cap of $6200 per month + tax. A 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan.
