Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Captivate

It is used for e-learning courses production by the development department
  • The published content is produced as a standard product that we can mount everywhere.
  • It is easy to use.
  • Has a library of preset content types.
  • Speed. It's slugish on all computers I has used it, Mac and Windows, the UX feels so slow.
  • Outdated UI, looks and behaves like a 10+ years app.
  • A better way to control what we see at a certain point of the timeline.
  • Export to SCORM standard
  • Capture software simulations
  • Easy to use
  • Overall positive impact, while we use other apps we still find uses where it's a faster solution.
Captivate for us is another tool, overall is slower than the competition but it has a version specifically for the Macs we used, it's a very powerful tool that matches the competition apps.

Would you buy Adobe Captivate again?

No

It is very well suited for content creation for multimedia e-learning courses, it includes lot of premade layouts so it's fast to start something from scratch. It has some powerful undocumented integration with JS so it's possible to build some very powerful activities but it requires expert knowledge.
