Professor Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 10/7/2024 "Instructional Designer and Computer Technology Professor" 4.5/5 What do you like best about ActivePresenter? The software is generally excellent except for a few wish-list items I'd like to see implemented. But the #1 draw is that the support is out of this world! post a problem on the forum and before anyone attempts to answer you're likely to get an email from a suppport person to help you. Even if the software doesn't do exactly what you want, they'll try to work out a solution for you, even to the point of writing Javascritpt code for you to make it work. I even wrote to support several times before I purchased the product and the treated me just like they would any paying customer. Usually they ask me to send my project code and they will analyze the problem and usually even send me back a correct working replacement. As far as the software, it is similar to Adobe Captivate or Articulate Storyline, but cheaper and in my opinion less steep learning curve, although there still is a big learning curve - just not as steep as the others. Many other user examples make learning easier by allowing you to open and view their slides, code, and object properties. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ActivePresenter? The lack of some user customization. For example they've been promising the ability to make in-document hyperlinks to another in-document slide for some time but seem to be dragging their feet. Seems to be only external hyperlinks available. Also for the presentations I can't seem to create an outline-style table of contents for learners to easily access. Pretty much just the left-hand slide thumbnails. It's possible to make your own, but it's very manual. Finally I can't seem to make a test in which several questions appear on a page, the way a normal quiz would be displayed. It's one question per page. They sent me a workaround some time ago with some code, but it is, again, very manual and time consuming to create. But compared with similar software, the capabilities, price, and support still make it number one in my book. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ActivePresenter solving and how is that benefiting you? Integration of web-based mini-courses or full-blown courses in themselves all that can be integrated into an LMS shell. These courses are easy to distribute to other instructors or even sell to other institutions or as published courses for sale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Until today, I haven't found anything better." 4.5/5 What do you like best about ActivePresenter? Of the few applications I know that "don't bother," meaning that (thanks to their ease of use) they allow me to focus on content creation. The application is full of details that demonstrate its orientation towards solving the needs of its users. It's clear that they take them into account. It is a powerful application, but it is not complicated because it allows you to use only what you need at each moment, forgetting about everything else. It is an application in constant improvement based on attentive listening to the messages of its users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ActivePresenter? Working with version 9, I find it very difficult to find any disadvantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ActivePresenter solving and how is that benefiting you? ActivePresenter is a tool especially suited for all those who understand that digital communication today must be hypermedia. In other words, for those who know that, nowadays, being relevant on the web largely consists of using messages that are true "communication machines." Messages whose power is based on good concepts, to which is added the best combination, for each case, of everything that can travel across the web, that is: text, image, sound, movement, links, and interactivity. This has been my positive experience with ActivePresenter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More 3/24/2024 Current UserValidated ReviewerSource: OrganicAI Translated SS Scott S. Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 12/20/2023 "Excellent eLearning Authoring Tool" 5/5 What do you like best about ActivePresenter? The application has an intuitive slide-based workflow, a robust set of eLearning development tools, multi-modal publishing (demo, tutorial, practice, and test modes) and one-click publishing to HTML5 and/or SCORM formats for ready deployment via LMS (we use it with MOODLE). The few times I have needed support, the team was very responsive and extremely helpful and even on a few occasions created scripts to make the software do what we needed it to do (which were somewhat non-standard use-cases). I have used many eLearning development and deployment platforms (including the 2 heaviest hitters in the industry), but ActivePresenter is hands-down the best value for the money and is most accessible for new team members to ramp up in learning development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ActivePresenter? After 5+years of use to create dozens of interactive learning resources, I have not dislikes.

GS Greg S. Senior Technical Training Specialist Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 3/13/2024 "Why Aren't More People Talking About This Tool?" 5/5 What do you like best about ActivePresenter?

MK Megan K. Onboarding Specialist Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 5/18/2023 "Fantastic app for full screen recording!" 5/5 What do you like best about ActivePresenter? I love that I can record my whole screen, as opposed to just a window, as well as choose what audio to record, such as system audio but not microphone. It has been a godsend for training sessions. The editing of videos is so dynamic as well, it's been extremely useful in putting together procedural trainings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ActivePresenter? The only downsides that I have found is that it slows down my computer a bit while using it, and because the editing abilities are so dynamic that there's a bit of a learning curve (especially if you self-teach like me). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ActivePresenter solving and how is that benefiting you? It helps to capture training sessions that will be helpful for so many. To be able to record an entire screen and selected audio has closed up some gaps in the transfer of information, as well as customizing procedural videos for the audience.
