Best presentation apps for the iPad

We increasingly see iPads being used to hold presentations. On conferences as well as one-to-one presentations the iPad has proven to be an ideal companion and an innovative tool to get your point across to your audience.

Therefore, many businesses are now starting to equip their sales force to conduct presentations and CRM activities through the slim device. Teachers use iPads in school for interactive show and tell presentations, architects have all their plans on the device while they are at the building site, etc.

The advantages are pretty obvious. The iPad allows for the integration of all media types from simple pdf presentations to videos and animations. No need to carry heavy-weight paper print-outs with you. All the necessary data is on your iPad and can be accessed through a tap of your fingers.

In addition, a whole new way of presenting is emerging. Presentations can be far more interactive. Also, while laptops often created an unnatural barrier in one-to-one presentations, the way two people interact with an iPad is far more integrative.

Mashable has already compiled an excellent list of 11 apps for presenting, however there are many more apps out there serving specific purposes. This list below shall be seen in addition to the one of Mashable. Please let us know if you know any additional apps:
