Overall Satisfaction with Brainshark

I use Brainshark to create training decks for those who are seeking Salesforce certifications. It is a great product and is very useful to our internal team. The ease of use and the quality of the results makes it easy for all types of learners to understand the topics and the rate their level of knowledge by the topic reviews I am able to incorporate into the presentation.

Pros

  • Brainshark is easy to create. Once you have your presentation completed, it's just takes seconds to upload into Brainshark.
  • Brainshark has the ability to add audio through your computer's microphone or via a phone number provided. It's very easy to add your own voice to the presentations.
  • Brainshark has the ability to easily update your presentations and add video content which is also very helpful for some training situations.
  • Its easy to share a Brainshark presentation, via a URL, but also easy to access on a mobile device.

Cons

  • It would be great to have some templates to work from so that your content can be easier to create in some instances.
  • It would be great to have some music available to add to the voice audio.
  • It would be great to have some icons or images to use to add some flavor to the presentations.
  • Brainshark is not expensive and its ROI has been great in terms of how much I have been able to accomplish in a short amount of time.
  • Brainshark is an easy to adopt tool and I have used it to launch several different certification training which have been very successful
I tried several other products before purchasing Brainshark and the reason I went with Brainshark was its ability to quickly and easily turn my training presentations into easy to follow, on demand training collateral for my internal and external clients. The other products did not compare in either price or ease of use.
I believe in Brainshark, I stand by it and I am committed to use it going forward as it has worked for me and has exceeded my level of expectation. Brainshark should be used by any company that wants to increase self study amongst their employees.
For my purposes of training, it is well suited. For sales collateral it is a bit challenging.
