Yeah I briefly got really fancy with InDesign at work when I was much younger and arrogant. And then I had to hand off the project.
Instantly broke. Spent a good 3 hours that day porting to PowerPoint.
Yeah that's a good lesson to learn.
I recently built a fancy excel sheet with lot of formulas for a quarterly process. Now I am having a hard time delegating that work. Having to hand hold the new person multiple times :)
With the right use of tools like morph transition etc. one can achieve pretty decent looking or even professional looking animations of concepts.
I have also used PowerPoint to create web application wireframes, design concepts, Logos and website graphics, icons, repeating fill patterns, arbitrary vector graphics, etc.
I guess one strong point is how easily / widely available the tool is, and therefore even if you don't have the same machine with all your design tools, or don't have admin access to install them, you can still edit your work later easily.
