Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Captivate

My organization uses Adobe Captivate to develop web-based trainings and software simulations for various federal government agencies.
  • Software simulations.
  • 360° Virtual Reality features.
  • Create interactive training.
  • Accessibility - as a federal contractor required by law Section 508 but few have knowledge as to how to apply outside of simple screens.
  • Ease of use for new users - it is not easy to know how to use without any training.
  • Tricky settings - not always clear of the meaning.
  • SCORM
  • Accessibility
  • Software simulations
  • VR 360
  • Complex interactions that are easy to make accessible
  • A common LCMS used by many.
SWAT (internal LCMS) - more flexible but not common to many and difficult to keep up to date Adobe Connect - great for webinars and online classes with live instructor.

Well suited for knowledgeable users, 360, software simulations.
Less appropriate - new users with no training, complex screens as difficult to make accessible.
