Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Connect

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Adobe Connect across the organization for Meetings and Training purposes. It solves the travel gap for training and allows for audio/video to deliver information in a seamless way.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Connect ability - no downloading like GoToMeeting
Ease of use for presenters - archive and sharing connect is great
Communication Styles- It is great to have audio, visual, chat, and poll functions
Break out rooms - when training we can present a topic, then give an exercise and have group break out remotely to complete the exercise.

Cons

Graphic Display- It does not support all graphics (WordArt). All graphics must be saved as objects
Screen Share and Presentation Window can sometimes be small, when you are using Chat/Webcam

Return on Investment

Employee efficiency
Excellent Training Tool

Alternatives Considered

We have use multiple products in the past for customer interaction and from a employee communication product Adobe Connect works really well!

I give it a 9 out of 10 because of the ease of use and multiple ways to engage your audience. I do not like the fact that when I am looking to include graphics and art to my presentations it take a lot of time to convert them over to object for display. The archive functionality and editing with recordings is a great feature as well.

Likelihood to Recommend

What is the goal of the training? Who is my audience? What is the level of engagement I need them to have?
