Considered Both Products
iSpring Suite
Chose iSpring Suite
Each tool has distinct features, and can be used for different types of content. The functionality of each tool, differs from iSpring Suite. However, iSpring for me works for slide-based courses, because of its ability to maximize PPT's animations and triggers or interactions. …
Chose iSpring Suite
The ability to update data independently is the best feature. It saves a lot of time.
Chose iSpring Suite
Our primary course and quiz creator was using Google Forms - iSpring Suite is several times better. Easier to use and makes more engaging content instead of bland questions that are easily ignorable by the user.
Chose iSpring Suite
Compared to other applications, iSpring Suite is based on PowerPoint and therefore on a familiar way of working for creating content for knowledge transfer. This basis facilitates a very simple and uncomplicated transition to the new tool for new users. New users are quickly …
Chose iSpring Suite
If you know PowerPoint, you know iSpring Suite. Not only is there a big learning curve with the other software, it also meant to us to start from scratch with our PowerPoints, which would have taken weeks to do. I can't state enough how big of a deal it is that it's all within …
Chose iSpring Suite
So much simpler. Integrates well with PowerPoint so there is little learning curve. Articulate is more powerful but that level of detail is not required for most applications. The learning curve with Articulate is much larger.
Chose iSpring Suite
We have chosen iSpring Suite over Articulate partially due to cost but also iSpring Suite does not distort the PowerPoint templates we have made as it does not import them into itself rather it becomes a part of PowerPoint.
Chose iSpring Suite
iSpring Suite is the only product I've used since I've been in my current role and I'm glad for that. It was so easy to learn and so easy to become proficient with that it makes hard for me to even imagine a product exists that will work better for me.
Chose iSpring Suite
When comparing features, price point and ease of use, there was no question which I was choosing. iSpring Suite offered more features and was the easiest to use. Additionally, it was one of the most cost conscious choices. It was a no brainer!
Chose iSpring Suite
iSpring Suite is far superior.
Chose iSpring Suite
This is our first software purchased on this aspect.
Chose iSpring Suite
Captivate was, I feel, for my experienced users and for a more professional level of course that our organisation did not require at this time. It was too daunting to learn it all to create simple courses fast Easy Generator - too expensive for our needs. iSpring Suite has a …
Chose iSpring Suite
In my opinion, Proprofs is not user friendly, and their support has not been helpful in the past especially with interfacing with other applications.
Chose iSpring Suite
lower cost, instant usability.
Chose iSpring Suite
We need Powerpoint compatibility because we can develop the training modules faster. Compared to all the authoring tools we have tried, iSpring is the most Powerpoint-friendly.
Chose iSpring Suite
I think iSpring Suite is just soooo much easier to learn and use than Captivate. It just adds a plugin to PowerPoint and is very intuitive to use. I found Captivate difficult to figure out, and a lot more expensive.
Chose iSpring Suite
We find Adobe Captivate looks outdated, is clunky, has a terrible user interface and is not flexible.
Chose iSpring Suite
iSpring Suite is wayyyy easier to use and does all I need.
Chose iSpring Suite
For us, it's really important to have the freedom to innovate by freeing our creativity through the functions offered by iSpring Suite. Other solutions don't offer the same flexibility as iSpring Suite, and for us this was an important factor in our choice of the Ispring …
Chose iSpring Suite
I did my research a while ago and liked the ease with which it integrated into the PowerPoint presentations as I have a lot already prepared. Will be able to update them all in time to the new format.
Chose iSpring Suite
We've used Techsmith's "Camtasia" product, but only for video creation. It has a more powerful interface and feature-set, but none of the other tools that are in iSpring Suite.
ITProTV
Chose ITProTV
This service was recommended by Network Chuk who is a YouTuber in the IT field. I have not used other products.
Chose ITProTV
Obvious focus on quality content, entertaining, more value for the investment (both time and money). I've also used Cybrary, Trainsignal, and some others that I cannot currently recall. That is likely because ITProTV really stands head and shoulders above the others.

The …
Chose ITProTV
I have not used any other online learning services like ITPro.TV before so am unable to provide a comparison I am afraid.
Chose ITProTV
I use all these for my training. ITProTV for the labs and practice exams and everything else as an alternative outlook or segmented training. Some teaching may be expressed differently allowing for me to better grasp the concepts.
Chose ITProTV
We have used multiple other trainings in the past, like Microsoft's own free training and certification that is available online. We've also found ourselves "you-tubing" training videos and tutorials (who doesn't?). Rather than hope that the YouTube video got it right, we can …
Chose ITProTV
Lynda.com and pluralsight.com. ITPROtv is less formal and easier to interact. I feel more welcome at ITPROtv.
Chose ITProTV
Previously my team used the Microsoft on demand training which has everything you could ever dream of from Microsoft in the same format as ITProTV. It did have the latest and greatest Microsoft training because it is Microsoft, but it only had Microsoft and nothing more. The …
Chose ITProTV
Other providers of IT learning materials are dry and lack the labs/study guides for exam prep that I have found on ITProTV.

In these scenarios, iSpring allows individuals to curate content necessary for sharing information of all types and to deliver material in a way that best meets the targeted audience.

ITProTV is GREAT for smaller teams looking for a cost effective solution to help their team members skill-up and stay up-to-date on current tech and certifications. It's equally good for larger teams who wish to have a ready available resource for their team members to access and train. The ability to stream to multiple platforms (desktop/laptop, mobile, smartTV, etc.) means that you can access the content anywhere. If a team is only acessing the content infrequently or doesn't need the Transcender practice tests then an individual plan may be best. If there is only one technology that a team is focusing on (Apple certification, MCSA certification, etc.) then this may not be the most cost effective solution.

Pros
  • Great range of images to use to show real people in the slides across the slideset because of the number of different actions they are doing
  • Support is easy to access and always helpful with easy to understand advice as well as links to further knowledge
  • Recording narration and editing within the iSpring Suite presentation makes it easy to use this function as a novice.

  • Training videos broken down into reasonable times to make it easier to fit them into an already busy day
  • Transcripts --> sometimes it is more than a little helpful to quickly scan back through a transcript for a bit of information rather than trying to scrub through the video to find it
  • The Practice Labs and Exams --> this alone is incredibly helpful and would cost quite a bit if purchased on their own.

Cons
  • The software is in constant revision, so if you search for help online, be sure you are researching the correct revision. There is a lot of debris information about iSpring Suite online.
  • The Presentation and Publishing features are somewhat intimidating at first. Be sure you pay attention to every detail. The training I develop is pretty standardized, so I was able to write instructions for myself to follow to ensure each instance was set up the same way each time.
  • There are a lot of 'extras' I never use, such as characters and interactions, so be sure your style of training development is aligned with what iSpring has to offer.

  • Only complaint and which keeps me from giving a 10 rating is that I like to watch the videos on a TV. And only Amazon Firestick and Apple TV apps are supported at this time. I think a compatible Android TV app is needed.

Using ITProTV has been a cakewalk. Not once have I wished that we went with a different vendor. The content stays updated. My technicians are improving their skills. We can train when we need it and access the content required. We are improving all the way around.... why wouldn't I want to renew?

Usability
iSpring Suite is a perfect tool overall to create contents in collaboration with colleagues. There are some difficulties though in usability but the usability is OK in total. We are fully satisfied with the customer support. There are simple online tutorials and a team of competent support colleagues. The support content is sometimes not simply accessible, you need to search for them longer.

Support Rating
Great software is only exceeded by their fantastic support. Prompt responses, complete with clearly outlined steps to follow, are just the beginning. There are tremendous resources and continual webinars to challenge what we think we know about the iSpring Suite. I often use PowerPoint to lay out marketing slides, add music and narration, then publish them as an MP4 video. I can count on iSpring support to assist me when I need help.

Let me start with... their chat really works. You aren't chatting with a bot. When we first looked into purchasing ITProTV, I opened a chat on their site. One of their sales people, Brandon, contacted me quickly and by phone. I totally thought I was chatting with a computer, then the phone rang and Brandon introduced himself. I was blown away. Then, on the two occasions when I contact support, I did it through the chat. Not only did my problem get resolved quickly, a tech named Jessica followed up via email a couple days later to make sure the issues hadn't continued. Fantastic!

Obvious focus on quality content, entertaining, more value for the investment (both time and money). I've also used Cybrary, Trainsignal, and some others that I cannot currently recall. That is likely because ITProTV really stands head and shoulders above the others. The continuous improvements that are functional, practical, and customer focused keep me coming back and also I can feel confident when writing reviews like this or recommending to others. There are few companies these days that I feel comfortable making such statements about.

Return on Investment
  • The ROI on this product has been great
  • It has enhance my reputation personally within the organization. This has led to other departments requesting me by name to head up eLearning development projects, even delaying their own deadlines to ensure that I am involved.
  • Other than a few duds (I let some inexperienced vocal talent slip thru in the heat of multiple conflicting deadlines), learner feedback has skyrocketed over that developed before I became involved and standardized the effort on iSpring

  • I am aiming to have passed the first exam by January and I believe ITPro.TV is helping me achieve this goal.
  • Having these two new qualifications with the help of ITPro.TV will enabled my business to be "Cyber Ready"
  • This will enable us to offer advice to our clients for moving their business' forward.
