I have been using Captivate since before it was even called Captivate. Each time a new version comes out I immediately update the program. I am self-taught, but thanks to so many helpful people via YouTube and LinkedIn Learning, as well as the Adobe discussion board, I can find help when I need it. It is a truly flexible authoring tool.

Pros

Adobe Captivate lets you create everything eLearning (including VR, responsive courses, software simulations, interactive videos, and branched scenario courses. You can also turn a PPT in to interactive content ( although I have never found this helpful). I prefer to use their ready-to-go slides as template guides.

Cons

Captivate has a steep learning curve. I suggest taking training in the program as opposed to trying to teach it to yourself. It is very helpful to have a guide who knows the ropes.

Review source

Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication.

Independent research methodology

Capterra's researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust.

How Capterra ensures transparency

Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users.
