Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Captivate Prime

Adobe Captive Prime is used by researchers and web developers in my particular company to increase productivity and offer new training pathways for employees. This program is mostly used for internal training. For the most part, this program is used only in specific areas of the company- primarily for systems support and IT.
  • I appreciated the Amazon infrastructure scalability that is associated with the program.
  • The programs easy-to-use single webpage layout makes creating courses easy and efficient.
  • I loved the fact that there were both online and offline platforms. This made employee certification process unique to the student.
  • There is the occasional device compatibility issue.
  • Difficult to monitor progress of employees in a course when there is a significant number of employees
  • Overall employee management tracking could be improved— do not want to download excel spreadsheets to track employees (why not integrate spreadsheet software into the system?)
  • Increased productivity in employee certification
  • Increased convenience for systems administrators to create and upload company wide content.
  • Decreased employee complaints about the company’s learning management software.
Unfortunately, I did not have any experiences with a Customer Success Manager at Adobe; I often had other colleagues interact with them. From what I have heard, their experience with the Support Manager was nothing but exceptional. They were often clear and concise with answers to our questions and offered constant support.
I believe that Adobe was much more complicated in the integrate of our employees’ information. However, the easy-to-use architecture made this program unique in that we could offer more content and create more courses for our employees than the other learning management systems. This is where I believe Adobe Captivate Prime separates itself from the competition.
I feel this product is well suited when a company needs to develop certifications and training modules for employees in a timely and effective manner. Overall, this product offers a wide variety of tools but the integrated management of employee tracking could be significantly improved. This way, third party apps would not be necessary.

Adobe Captivate Prime Implementation

Unfortunately, I was not a part of the implementation of Adobe Captivate Prime learning management software in our company, but I was present after its implementation. From what others tell me, the implementation of the product was fine and there were only a few issues that primarily focused on internal communication errors about what we would use the product for.
  • Implemented in-house
Change management was a small part of the implementation and was well-handled - Our company did a great job of adapting our existing software to the Adobe Captivate Prime learning management software. The changes were small during our implementation and we had the people and the skills necessary to handle any problems with ease.
  • Training users how to use the product
  • In-house communication errors between executive members and implementers
  • Small implementation discrepancies between implementers

Adobe Captivate Prime Training
