Can a company history stay up to date on our website?

Yes, on Advanced. Make the timeline public or shared and embed it with one iframe tag. When a new milestone is added in Boromlia, the embedded timeline shows it the next time the page loads, with no new export.

Does Boromlia export to PowerPoint?

No. It exports an A4 PDF, a CSV of every field and a zip of the photos, on every plan. For native slides, a design tool such as Visme is the right choice.

Can I organise a long history into eras?

Yes. Chapters group events into periods, tags cut across them, and filters narrow the view to a tag, a category or a span of years. The Doc style on Advanced prints the chapters with a contents page.

Visme timeline alternative: Boromlia vs Visme

Choose Boromlia if

The timeline is a living record, a company history or a project log, that gains events every month.
Each milestone should say where it happened and what it rests on: a place on the map and a source field.
You want one live version on your website: on Advanced, an embed that shows each new event.
You want a smaller bill: $12 a month for Advanced, or $49.99 once, against Visme’s reported $24.75 a month for Pro billed annually.

Stay with Visme if

You need presentations, reports and infographics as well as timelines, all from one brand kit.
You want PowerPoint, HTML5 or video exports of a designed timeline.

The main difference: a designed asset versus a record that grows

A design suite is at its best when the content is fixed and the look matters most. A history that keeps growing is the opposite case. In Boromlia each milestone is an event with a date or range, people, tags, a source and photos, grouped into chapters for each era. The Doc style on Advanced turns the same record into a printable document with a contents page, and the Map shows every office, site or launch that has a place.
