Except PowerPoint is actually quite nice to make quick, easy and good looking visualizations and brochures without having to deal with Word

Well, Word isn't really a good choice either.

I can personally attest to entire universities advocating for student use of powerpoint for all sorts of printshop work to include thesis and capstone presentation posters for conferences :)
