The Verdict
InVision is built for design teams and product managers, with a focus on prototyping and freehand-whiteboard. Prezi targets public speakers and educators and leads with zoomable-canvas and prezi-video.
Both tools come in at similar price points ($7.95/mo for InVision, $7/mo for Prezi), so pricing won't make the decision for you.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
This is a genuinely close comparison. If you can, sign up for both free trials (where available) and run a one-week test with your actual team tasks before deciding.
