iSpring Suite

Great product!

Kommentarer: I use it all the time to create eLearning content. It has multiple applications, such as learning courses, quizzes, conversation simulations, flip books, and more. Highly recommend.

Fordeler:

I have been using the iSpring Suite for a few years now, primarily as a PowerPoint plugin to create eLearning and publish it in Scorm 1.2 format. It's very easy to turn a regular PowerPoint presentation into an interactive eLearning course.

Ulemper:

It's a great product. Using the suite through PowerPoint is powerful, but limiting if you don't use Office365.

Best value for an authoring tool

Kommentarer: Overall, it is a great product within the world of authoring tools. It seems that most have a bit of 'clunkiness' associated with them. In my opinion, iSpring has the least and is the best value.

Fordeler:

The ease of use is what I like the most! I have been able to train people easily on how to use it, and it is intuitive. I also appreciate the recent prompt support that I had as some videos were exporting funny. It was all resolved within 24 hours of opening the ticket over the weekend.

Ulemper:

The only piece that I don't like from this software is how the interactions and quizzes are not cloud-based. We are a cross functional team that collaborate on courses, and this impacts our workflow.

An intuitive time-saver

Kommentarer: My job entails training those in caring professions how to use software - be it bespoke packages, or how to use Microsoft Excel to analyse statistics and everything in-between. Taking time out of busy and unpredictable schedules to attend an all day course on Advanced Excel is often not an option. iSpring Suite is allowing courses to be broken down into 15/20 minute 'learning episodes' that are more manageable. Furthermore, staff working nights are able to more readily access learning - something that was difficult in the past... Overall the software will improve access and participation, reducing IT Support workloads and helping ensure compliance, competence and ultimately provide more stimulating, engaging work.

Fordeler:

The iSpring Suite bridges the gap between mundane PowerPoint based training, and more complex flash or HTML 5 based digital training, that requires a specific skills set that does not necessarily correspond with those of a teacher or trainer. It provides the right mix of interactivity to engage those of all learning biases, the versatility to cover almost any topic and a good range of assessment and analytics to simplify assessment and training effectiveness. Given that there is almost zero learning curve with the software, and the SCORM compliance enabling use with any Learning Management System worth it's salt, it's a extremely cost effective solution that simply lets you get on with creating content. Furthermore, should you be au fait with HTML and CSS, the output generated can by tweaked if required, but the standard interface and options provide a clean, user friendly and attractive front end to courses.

Ulemper:

The only slight tarnish on an otherwise perfect product is the lack of titling facilities within the screen/video capture module, iCamPro. This is a minor niggle, given that the iSpring Suite is integrated into PowerPoint, which can be used to bridge this shortfall through appropriate use of animation and export to WMV which can then be spliced into video files as required...

Great Product

Fordeler:

It's easy. Sometimes, it's difficult for staff who have many priorities to have to learn a new tool - but everyone knows powerpoint. The features are easy to use, and so far the products have been well-received.

Ulemper:

Deploying the product based on licensing. I think it's a great product, but it's going to be difficult to convince my team to maintain this expense (and increase it) if others don't get to utilize it. Would be great if there was a group licensing rate for small non profits...

Best ELearning & LMS Platform..... fast and effective Support Team

Fordeler:

Every feature is incredible and with the constant mods and interface upgrades it just gets betterMoreover, we really appreciate the prompt and effective support from ISpring teamAls to add on is online trainings that are provided from time to time which is really helpful for all

Ulemper:

Perhaps we can look into the mobile (responsiveness) for SCORM so that our/every mobile users could use ISpring SCORM in the vertical modeMy proposal is to have something like Youtube whereby the in portrait mode the first have contains the video/presentation and the other half below could contain the list on slide name (scroll) instead of having just the middle containing the content video/presentation and the top and below is empty
