Cyber Assistant: Infogr.am

If you work assignments often involve making presentations or creating reports, you may find it challenging to come up with ways to package data or important facts in a way that doesn’t put people to sleep. Infographics can be a great solution, but you may not have the time or budget to hiring a graphic designer who can create fancy infographics for you.

This is where Infogr.am can be a valuable asset. This cloud-based tool lets you create visually interesting infographics quickly and easily. You pick a template and add your data, but then you can also customize the look of your image. Sharing your completed inforgraphic is simple and convenient—or you can embed the image right into a web page.

You can import data from Excel and other programs, and use the site’s built-in spreadsheet to make edits as needed. You can also add pictures and video to the infographics you create.

The service is free to use, and there is a gallery of samples of images people have created using the site, which may provide you with inspiration or ideas.
