Considered Both Products	Bigtincan Readiness Eric Gibson Sr. CWS Technology Consultant Chose Bigtincan Readiness Much easier to learn, use, publish content. It does not have many advanced capabilities or support for HTML5 or VR Incentivized Helpful? Lori Houser Sales Training & Development Chose Bigtincan Readiness Brainshark met all of our current needs, had an impressive roadmap for future integrations that aligned with ours and pricing was a good fit. Incentivized Helpful? LW Lisa Weinberg education solutions consultant Chose Bigtincan Readiness I like the way Brainshark is organized better. I also like the layout better. The only issue with Brainshark is sometimes it is hard to find the items that you still need to complete. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Bigtincan Readiness Mindtickle doesn't compare to Brainshark at all. Usability is incredibly low.

Verified User Anonymous Chose Bigtincan Readiness The closest that I can think of that I can compare Brainshark too is Dropbox. I know Brainshark does have some other features that I do not utilize, such as a learning section. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Bigtincan Readiness Nothing quite compares. It is a good niche product that plays to its strengths. There is always a balance of powerful tools and ease of use for admins and users. Brainshark strikes a good balance with a lot of features but keeping it very easy for viewers to access content. Helpful? Brad Shafton Senior Manager, User Services Chose Bigtincan Readiness Have not had to compare to any alternatives to date. Helpful? Tina Callisto Training Lead Chose Bigtincan Readiness I haven't found a tool that has the integrated content development and hosting tools that Brainshark has.

Helpful? Sarah Jolly Business and Communication Analyst Chose Bigtincan Readiness At our company the only tool we had like this was to manually send PowerPoint presentations to each other, which are static and easily lost in your inbox.

Justin James Technical Sales Engineer Chose Bigtincan Readiness There are a lot of sites that allow you to host/share content in the loud.

User Testimonials
	Bigtincan Readiness	Potion
Likelihood to Recommend	Brainshark is very user-friendly and it’s very easy to create learning content, even a beginner could walk through it fairly easily. They also have a great support team and help site that can pretty much answer any question with video tutorials. Incentivized Lori Houser Sales Training & Development Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	You can Track who watched and how many times your presentation was watched through their tracking service. Customer service is outstanding. They will walk you through any difficulties you encounter. They are always working and expanding the product to give me ways to engage with my audience Justin James Technical Sales Engineer Read full review	No answers on this topic
Cons	It is not always the SME that wants to narrate so an easier way to invite guest narrators would make the creation process less painful. More detailed description of report types. Depending on what output I am in search of, I find myself having select each option until I find what I need. An option to insert a slide instead of just adding and having to move it up by repeatedly pressing the up arrow. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Likelihood to Renew	Our customers (internal employees) have expressed desired for online learning and we have received positive feedback on the Brainshark modules used in eLearning and communications. We are also increasing usage at the project level as the word spreads about the benefits of using Brainshark. Tina Callisto Training Lead Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	BrainShark is great for those with beginner and intermediate level software skills. It doesn't take a programming genius to get up and running with this application. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Reliability and Availability	I'm always able to access Brainshark, whether it is to upload, record, share, download, or view presentations. Whenever I do need to contact someone at Brainshark, there is always someone there. I have never had a problem accessing a presentation and any updates to presentations are viewable immediately. S. Renee Conley Administrative Assistant Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	We've found a few glitches and needed some branding updated. Each time we've called, they were super responsive and cared about my issue as much as I did! They've even helped me (and another vendor) figure out how to have this other outside software integrate with theirs to achieve an even greater presentation. I'm super impressed with their Customer Service people. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Online Training	The training is easy to use. You can take as little or as much as you need. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. There is a variety of training you can take. There are mini lessons, courses, and webinars. The folks at Brainshark truly want to help you have the best presentation possible. S.

Implementation Rating	Their ongoing support after implementation is excellent and easy to access... MB Mike Buege Managing Partner - Director of Business Development Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Most systems we looked at only housed training you already had or bought... or you could buy their training, but they did not offer a way to build your own training AND keep it updated and house it in a logical way. I what we use in Brainshark as two parts (and we don't use it all - such as the Coaching module) one for creation and second for delivery... and delivery offers two parts. One off's... links that we can add to newsletters, websites etc, and then their Rapid Learning Portal for more formalized learning. Brainshark gives me what I need to create AND deliver trainings, webinars and even holiday wishes. Plus they are big enough to offer service and tech help to the field... I don't have to do it all myself... as well as a Customer Success Manager for quarterly updates, help and training, monthly reporting on usage, training webinars and an whole knowledge base and author and administrator training online. If you only have a person or hand full of people creating your training... it is easy to use and get lots of content out to the world!

Return on Investment	Since we implement how Brainshark is used we have found several areas where it has a significant impact...the first is the ability for any three step distributor to build a supplier / manufacturer content library that can be utilized by their B2B sales group Brainshark's survey and question tools are an excellent way to solicit feedback from both internal and external audiences... Brainshark is a cost effective way for retailers and wholesalers to manage store and field level operations...
