It is primarily used for creating interactive eLearning courses and software simulations. Think of it as a mix between a screen recorder and PowerPoint; you can record your screen and then edit the interactions slide-by-slide. I personally use it to make training tutorials that export to HTML5/SCORM for our LMS.
