Overall Satisfaction with Brainshark

We use Brainshark primarily as a content development tool. This allows us to use SME's to create presentations that can easily be exported as SCORM content that can be published on our enterprise LMS. This has allowed us much more flexibility, cut down on development time, and has empowered our organization to create targeted, specific training content that is easily updated so it is current and valid.
  • Content development
  • Works with all content types
  • simplifies and speeds up course development
  • Reporting - not as robust as most modern report engines
  • Not completely compatible with VR or HTML5 content
  • The system can get bogged down if you have lots of content
  • The admin management is not the best
  • Increased our course development from approximately 2-3 /mo to between 30-50 /mo
  • We can quickly develop micro learning and publish it
  • In general, our users take more training and there is a trend/correlation - more training = increased sales
Much easier to learn, use, publish content. It does not have many advanced capabilities or support for HTML5 or VR

While it does not have all the bells and whistles, it is the easiest development tool to learn and use for most employees. The flexibility of the tool to use content developed in other tools the author is already familiar with is a great benefit. SCORM export is easy and the #1 reason we use this tool. Course development is no longer limited to our Instructional designers or developers.
