SlideRocket was an online presentation platform that let users create, manage, share and measure presentations. SlideRocket was provided via a SaaS model. The company was acquired by VMware in April 2011,[1] who sold it to ClearSlide, a similar SaaS application, in March 2013.[2] It is no longer offering independent signups, as the platform is being integrated into ClearSlide.[3]
