Adobe Connect Reviews: 4.0/5 — Solid Choice

I like all of the multiple features that this software/program has. They can screen share, raise your hand, step away, agree, disagree, turn mic on/off. You can also have a little chat box to type and write anything if you do not want to turn your mic on and disrupt the presentation.

I think I dislike the clutter a little bit but not that much. It is easy to look past when you see all the benefits this program has.

It is way better than google meetings in my opinion.You can see everyone who is online and you can even have music playing in the background if no one is presenting or talking.

Does what we needed it to do to convert from classroom learning in a physical classroom to virtual learning.

I didn't encounter anything that I disliked about using Adobe.

remote learning outside the classroom due to Covid 19. I suspect it will be utilized much more by our college for distance education

Adobe connect makes it easy to engage the class with icons to make the experance seamless. Breakout rooms are a great way for agent to interact in big or small groups.

Right now there is nothing i do not like about Adobe connect

Only problem is the slow loading when joining a class room. Biggest benifit is sharing desktop.

Quick and easy to use; great collaborative tool and easy to customise

Need a usb headset for audio to work with decent sound quality - 3.5mm jacks don't work very well.

We use it for training; very easy tool to use for virtual training

The multiple modules that allow different ways to communicate

not as intuitive to use as some other web-meeting software

Security was the main reason why we chose this software over others

Adobe connect it pretty use friendly, and it has many awesome functions that help make great presentations. It is easy to find help on line.

I am not good about making my office look inviting...I am not sure if there is a better way besides simply adding pods in different combinations?

I have finally learned how to convert video and present it on a share pod.

Good quality and the ability to interact during class

Microphone is a bit fiddly sometimes, I can't get it to turn off.

A course I was physically to attend was switched online during Covid 19 Pandemic and Adobe Connect has enabled me to attend the course

I like the ability to chat with everyone at once, being able to add add-ons to the application. I also like the simplicity of it. Easy to use/navigate.

It seems to be laggy, even with no add-ons, or shared documents/screens from time to time.

Team meetings, open communication with coworkers. Being able to stay connected with everyone.

I love that videos stream flawlessly, the chat is easy to use and separated from other chat threads. In addition this software allows for customization both in layouts, individual breakout rooms and with the ability to tailor the presentations to the needs of the facilitator and the organizations. Furthermore, this software allows for lag-free or next to lag-free video streaming. The audio and video are in sync during video playback. This software is the simplest way to share videos where talking syncing with lip movement is very important. I would strongly recommend this to anyone who is in need of a training solution.

I do not like the connectivity issues and working with other individuals' IT Departments to get an Adobe Product installed and running on other organization's machines. Furthermore, this software takes time to get the layouts just right for your organization. Granted once the layouts are created they can be reused so it is not a bad negative.

We are using Adobe Connect to host our trainings. Pre-Covid we had in-person trainings around the world and now we can bring our trainings to people's homes and businesses. We also use Adobe Connect to record our organization's all-hands meetings. This allows for any employee to rewatch the trainings on an as-needed basis. In addition, we use Adobe Connect to beta test new trainings and content offerings.

I love the ease of access for learning community members. I can set it up with password, or open access with url. Also, how I can share multiple things at once.

Recordings always save as private. (Now it may already do this) but when setting up the recording parameters, give us the option to set it to public instead of having to hunt for the recording and change it to public.

I can send my students ONE pre-set url that they can use for class anytime we need it. I don't have to set up separate times, etc. I have Coach K's Online Classroom. They can link this in their bookmarks. And when they need to jump on the class, they can just click on the bookmarked url and they are in. No passwords and 10 digit numbers to copy and paste.

I love that I set my meeting room up almost 3 years ago and I have never had to re-do or re-make it since. Just like my cell phone the more I use it the more my content and everything I could ever want or need is there for me to grab instantly from anywhere. I also like that because my stuff stays persistent from session to session I can go back in and grab notes I've taken at a later time, or that I can set things up and practice my presentation so it's polished. And one of my FAVORITE things is that the recordings done in Connect play back interactively for people when I send out the URL to the recording! So when people watch what I'm sending them instead of a boring, flat, MP4 - they can now download files from the file share pod still in the recording, they can click on weblinks and still go to that destination in the recording, they can still interact with a quiz or simulation or game in the recording, they can copy and paste from the chat or notes pod in the recording, and I can also edit my recording and strip out any personally identifiable information if I need to autonomize it.

I don't have anything I dislike. The more I use it the better it gets :).

I am solving customer and prospect interactions, as well as public webinars, marketing, and also eLearning. It solves all facets for me.

Adobe connect is extremely professional and organized. That is what is the most helpful to me as a professional educator.

It takes a little bit of time to understand Adobe connect and there are still some parts of it that I’m not 100% confident in.

I have been able to solve the problem of being able to meet professionally and securely with my students whenever they need help.

The presenter only area was a very useful tool.

Adobe sometimes had glitches in the connection.

The whiteboard is a great tool for illustrating which can help with problem-solving.

Adobe Connect is flexible and powerful. It is easy to use a variety of classroom tools when presenting. It just takes seconds to upload my content. I feel more secure on Adobe Connect than I do with other distance learning platforms.

When I am showing a video to my students via Adobe Connect, the volume is too low.

Am able to allow the students to interact with each other. It is a way for the students to stay connected while at home.

I like the multiple chat boxes, polls, playing music at the start of my class and the white board.

I cannot see my participants. I have my webcam and they can see me.

I am able to train our employees even if they are in a different country.

The simplicity and the ease of configuration, its a very in demand tool for training in our time today. But I like a lot of feature sin it like the whiteboard gives me the sense that I am in a natural classroom which is really cool. The poll options it make me engage with the trainees at a different level it is like you are really in a physical room with them.

Well it is really hard to dislike the tool, possibly improvements would be a better word, if they could have a pricing for 40 licenses that would be close to 150 dollars that would be awesome, there is a lot of trainers in our organization and although the tool really has good performance a tweak in the pricing is something that it could use to better boost sales and attract corporate functions like us.

The need for business training is something the world needs today in a virtual fashion adobe connect is the perfect tool that covers this account. My profession as a training head is filled with questions when the pandemic hit our country how can I conduct training remotely? and suddenly my boss approached me and said he heard of this popular tool that is supposed to make online training easier called adobeconnect. We gave it a try for 1 month and it was like magic!!!!!!!

Control over the Participant experience. The ability to use custom applications / PODs Background noise reduction is good. Easy to distribute File, Links etc.

An almost complete lack of support for POD developers. Whiteboard sucks. Need to support multiple webcams, or provide a quicker and easier (single click!) way to switch between. Need to be able to capture desktop audo when screen sharing. Not all preferences "stick" (either from Template->Room, or from repeated activations / uses of a Room.) I would like to see an "Auto-Record" option, based on the Layout in use. (Have written a custom POD solution, but it isn't ideal!) You can't just upload a ZIP to Content for distribution via Files. Lastly, no Linux version!

Technical training for customers. The ability to give a slick and professional presentation is fantastic. I love the Layouts as it enables me to transition easily between presntation "modes".

Functionality. So many options to configure the classroom!

Nothing. Everything about Adobe Connect is fantastic!

Virtual training in a pandemic world. Cost savings and the benefit for the attendee to be able to sleep in their own beds at night, versus sleeping in a hotel!

It consistently performs excellently for all virtual events

Sometimes showing video has some challenges but there are workarounds for that.

It's an excellent virtual events platform that has a capacity to hold thousands of attendees all at once.

My employees always love going through training in Adobe! All the features, and the green check marks are like currency

Due to high volume it can get laggy, or starts to kick out participants which can affect overall efficiency

We're solving the problem of having to train brick and mortar, now we can train anywhere virtually.

Easy group setup of groupwork and variety of tools

Sometimes the performance is pretty crappy

Digital classroom

Adobe Connect gives me security and confidence when meeting online. Its interface is attractive and it has tools to make everything work properly. I've shared meetings and seminars, group sessions and we can even split up into several rooms.

We have had some problems with audio in conversations and some errors and incompatibility with Flash Player.

We've been able to hold seminars to showcase our products and offers. It is the relatively good thing to get effective communication, its great features will help to have a pleasant experience, sharing files and presentations.

Most striking feature regarding connect meeting is layouts and ease of feature that is available in whole one window to view.once you get hang of it you are never going back

You have to install flash in plugin and some browser are not compatible with it

The payment and licensing options are not flexible in fact you have to pay a high amount if you are using add ons.

I have been using Adobe Connect since 2008 for teaching private online classes. I love how you can set up the room any way you want, including setting up multiple setups. I also love how you can upload documents, video and music to present, and you can pre-upload as many as you want. You can share your screen, use a whiteboard, and annotate your presentations. You can do breakout rooms, choose to give or not give your attendees video and microphone rights and setup multiple chat pods. I also teach for a public school and we have moved to virtual teaching for the pandemic. Our district let us use Zoom at first and then moved us to Google Meets because of the security issues. Both of these programs don’t hold a candle to what Adobe Connect can do. They seem so basic when you are coming from the Adobe Connect platform. I am currently asking the technology department allow the use of Adobe Connect for the virtual classroom, because I know how useful it is for teaching.

We just need to be able to share our sound in the screen share.

I am currently a happy customer and have no problems with Adobe Connect. I have successfully used this program for 12 years to teach one-to-one and one-to-many online classes.

Built in features as the backbone for a platform

some limitations with HTML web conferencing and it's not user friendly enough for average computer user

reduce costs with other Adobe Connect platform providers by using it ourselves.

Flexibility in design and perpetual rooms.

Flash-based, can be laggy on slow connections.

Delivering high-quality, interactive training programs to our clients via electronic delivery. While zoom is easy and a bit more user friendly, Adobe Connect brings so many great features that allow us to create a more engaging online learning environment. The customized branding also allows us to improve our brand awareness with our clients and demonstrates a higher-level of professionalism.

Adobe Connect is flawless , user friendly and very easy to use. The professors have shown a great appreciation to all the features it offer. Also, the support team are very responsive and they provide all the help needed to make the adobe connect experience a better one.

We have experience some issues with video delay during some conferences that we held on campus, especially when we have a power point up at the same time.

Teleworking is a breeze with adobe connect. We contacted the support team when we had issues with the video lag and they assisted us all the way.

Adobe Connect provides a good experience for the users and the classroom functionality helps deliver a sound experience

The loading times for the slides and content is a bit slow

Problems: No real problems other than slow load screens. Benefits: great for online classroom use

I love the ease with which I can manage my content and my audience from one easy screen. I also love how I can communicate with my other hosts in the background. I love that we can build pods, chats and more in the backroom and then bring them live to the audience. I love that I can capture data and source files with whiteboard from the break out rooms. I love the breakout rooms. they are easy to implement and easy to design. I can manage the learning modules and pedagogy so easy with the different share pods and poll pods. I like that I can assign leaders to the breakout rooms and I can broadcast messages to them. I like that I can build a very interactive lobby that welcomes my audience. I like that people are engaging and i can read the engagement in the back room.

I am worried about the quality of the sound for some of my long distance learners. There is a tendency for the program to create overtalk - the presenter is taling over the video that I am showing. This is not acceptable. I dislike the user experience - they would like to be on camera - but that takes up too much bandwidth. I would like a better quality of sound,. I think I can pay more for that but I can;t afford it yet.

I have a need ot provide professional development ton an international audience. My learners come from India, Africa, Europe Australia and all across the USA. We will also have audiences in Japan and China. I have a preference for a pedagogical model that revolutionizes online learning. I can build it in AC with ease and deliver it.

I like the ability to add polls to my webinars, the ease of use and I could go on. I have been using AdobeConnect for many years and I enjoy it. I like that I can conduct polling with participants to engage them. I also record my presentations because not everyone can attend at that time and date. With recording, you can go back and edit it-which is fantastic. The edit feature came in handy when there was a connection snafu and my presenter had to stop for a second, my audio went out, and by going in and editing this, those that listened to the recording had no idea of the technological issue. Another great feature that I use often is having an evaluation sent out following my presentations to collect feedback-love! Like I said, I have been using AdobeConnect for years and enjoy the many features.

The only thing that I have encountered was with playing a video. One of my presenters wanted to show a video as part of their presentation and I had everything in place prior to the presentation. When we were live, the audio from the video did not play. That was disappointing, but this has been the only issue I have had.

Being able to connect people from all parts of the state, region, and country. I enjoy using AdobeConnect because I work with people of varying computer literacy skills and the simplicity is wonderful.
