The software has a very low learning curve. If you can make a PowerPoint then you are in business.
There needs to be added functionality to the reporting features.
It has allowed me to convert pre-existing presentations into an actual online learning experience.
This system is simple to use and has the best support.
There is not much I can say about my dislikes.
It has provided a great way to provide training anytime and anywhere.
The thing I liked most about iSping was how professional the end product was. We were able to add not only information but also helpful scenarios.
We didn't have any major issues with iSpring. It is a new resource so it took some getting used to.
ISpring made it much easier for us to provide examples of workplace scenarios compared to if we had tried to use PowerPoint.
Having used ispiring for over 2 years now i have watched it grow and edevlop - its easy to create courses and modules - easy to deploy and distribute and very easy to track user progress and results.
There was a feature that sent users certificated upon completion - this was found to be a bug and disabled, but i used this feature alot.
Deploying industry accredited material to benfit and futher knowledge
I love iSpring. I love that the features are so easy to use. When we first acquired Spring, I was a new designer. We had another authoring tool that was hard to maneuver and was constantly crashing. iSpring is entirely the opposite. I have created some engaging content with this tool. Tech Support is always on call to assist when I have an issue. I love that.
The only issue is not really on with iSpring. But iSpring is constantly updating its system and features which is fantastic. Unfortunately, I have to contact my IT support to assist with those updates which can be a little tiresome. I wish there were a workaround for this.
We needed a cost-efficient Authoring tool that produced quality content. My team had a very lean budget to find and purchase. I utilized the trials with some of the other Authoring Tools and I found them overwhelming. I stumbled upon iSpring and fell in love with the product. The content that I have created with this tool is exquisite, very professional work.
I have been using iSpring for years, and the product keeps improving. The ability to easily create course materials, capture results, and locate deficiencies in training are just a few of the reasons I will use this product as long as I can. Barring unemployment, I will be an iSpring user and supporter for life.
The only issue I have with iSpring is that I have to download/install updates. Now this isn't a fault of iSpring as they are constantly updating and improving their product. My problem actually lies in the fact that I have to reach out to my company's IT department and get them to perform the install. So really, I have no issues with iSpring, that would be my only gripe (and it's not the fault of the company).
I recently invested in the iLearn portion of iSpring. This LMS helped me better organize my training and analyze the results. I was easily able to capture who in my organization was not taking training seriously. Before, I had my suspicions, but now I had proof. It's led to better training opportunities and helped our organization identify where our weaknesses were.
The software is easy to use and can take the most mundane training to a higher level using PowerPoint. The cost is reasonable for this powerful tool. Technical support is always available, and their knowledgeable staff will assist with helping to navigate how to use the software to create beautiful, engaging, and state-of-the-art training for organizations.
I wish I had a negative to say about iSpring Suite, but I do not. This software has taken our organizational training to the next level!
iSpring is helping us create more engaging and exciting content for our new hires. We have used the software to bring our new hire onboarding training to the next level with audio, graphics, quizzes, etc. We have also created product training to train our employees on what we sell.
It's user friendly, and their support is quick and always helpful
More characters would be nice, more premade packages
Nothing at this time.
Easy to navigate and to update as needed.
getting employees to use this, getting time to train
Access to training information in one place for employees to access
It is easy to navigate and create interactive training material.
Wish there was more material in the libraries.
It is a platform to create interactive virtual training that does not require someone with high technical skills.
iSpring integrates well into PowerPoint, where we had many of our courses already developed. We were quickly able to migrate those traditional instructor-led courses into SCORM modules, which we then posted to our training portal. The integrated toolbar makes editing existing projects a breeze.
There was not much negative about using iSpring. We did have some issues with the quality of the audio recording when using iSpring through PowerPoint; as a result, we tended to record the audio using Techsmith Camtasia, then importing the audio files into our iSpring project. Further editing of the audio, to include noise reduction, was accomplished using iSpring.
iSpring allows us to create training modules using our existing MS Office installation and the iSpring plug-in. The learning curve was minimal, and we can bring on new course developers and have them up to speed in no time. It is a great value for the price; it meets our budget.
I discovered iSpring when looking for a program to create scorm courses for our LMS. Seven years later, we still use iSpring on a regular basis. We like how iSpring is easy to use, has great tutorials, and has multiple publishing options. The content is professional-looking, and staff appreciates having interactive learning courses.
If there was one thing I could change about iSpring, it would be reporting of survey and quiz data. We use a 3rd party LMS, and I cannot run a report to see test scores or survey responses. I wish I could run a "course report" or something to see this information. For current surveys/quizzes where I need to see responses, EVERY response comes to my email and I have to sift through the information manually.
Creating interactive courses was our initial purpose, but as we've learned how to use iSpring, we use for surveys, compliance questions, violation reporting, and pre-learning knowledge assessments.
Easy access, great content, great voiceover application. Such a great system for our group college project.
Nothing stood out to me that our group didn't like.
It let us present to a company how they could better apply more training to guest.
ISpring Suite is one of the most straightforward applications for creating training videos. The ability to incorporate quizzes makes it an effective application.
I have been pleased with the application.
It has been an effective tool to develop and distribute training programs for every segment of our business.
Easy to use and the customer support is really fantastic and helpful.
There is nothing that I don't like. The learning curve is very short with support's help and they are fantastic.
course creation and hosting
There are so many things I love, but particularly the support. The good news is, I hardly ever need support. But when I do, it's there and its helpful.
In the iSpring Narrator, you can't edit just a small piece of audio. You can remove parts, but you cannot add something in without re-recording the whole slide.
There's no problem, but it is allowing us to serve our clients very well.
Its a great LMS and the quizzing tools are very easy to use.
I wish the IT support can be reached in a faster way.
We train virtually and iSpring allows us to do that.
I am able to create content that directly relates to the work the employees do.
Because of the vast information the program offers, it can be a bit overwhelming to know where everything is and the full capacity the program can achieve.
It's allowing me to understand and test the competency of my staff
Start with Powerpoint and end with a Scorm package to easily upload to LMS
There is nothing that is difficult to use
Saves time and allows you to quickly create content on the fly
Integrates seamlessly with PowerPoint software
Does not work well with cloud based storage
The presentation is dynamic
I LOVE that I can message and help right away! I could message the problem instantly and get a response and help immediately.
I like everything about I Spring. I can't wait for them to add more backgrounds
I am creating courses that I was not able to do before.
The available instant support. I had an issue with a video freezing, and Oscar was very helpful in working through a range of options with me until I was finally able to resolve the issue.
Nothing that I can think of at this point.
fixing a video in Powerpoint
It is very versatile and very user-friendly. A great experience to use and many of my colleagues enjoy using it as well! We like the way that it seamlessly works with PowerPoint .
I don't have any complaints really. It would be nice if there was a setting for updates to update in the background without requiring administrative rights / opening a helpdesk ticket.
It's just easy to integrate everything seamlessly and again, very easy to use and this is how it benefits me. We have no trouble at all creating our training videos.
iSpring Suite is a comprehensive system that allows me to make professional training materials for new hires and create continued educational training for staff development.
I wish there were a few different options with the quiz and interaction options, such as screen grabs that allow you to navigate through a system in "real-time" that then tells the team member if they are completing the process correctly.
Training material has never been easy to create and distribute. And the new updates continue to create a positive learning module for the end users to use. This allows me more time for hands on training and practice time for employees.
Easy to use and has many valuable tweaks to enhance any presentation significantly. I also love that i can pull in older presentations for updates!
Oh, maybe it can do this, i am not aware, but can it convert videos to different formats, or can it accept any type?
Easy addition of quizzes and Tests! I like being able to choose people models from the library and have them do what i need. Paints a more clear picture for People
All the functionnality in the same place. Role play function is nice and well propose. Quiz functionnality is complete with report Ispring space very useful
The lack of customisation in interaction activitees.
I move powerpoint file without iSpring directory. The project was corrupt. iSpring support help me to explain the link between Powerpoint file and iSpring directory
The product is very easy to install and a doddle to use
Nothing comes to mind. I've not found anything to cause me to fault it
Ability to create presentation based Help systems for our software
Being able to convert powerpoint slides and integrate assessment and simulations into an self-contained online module is such an important tool in online learning environments and to assist in the flipping of classrooms.
Some additional features like embedding inking would be a huge benefit so that written content can be animated in a more facile way. Overall though an invaluable tool.
The online modules that are created have a professional appearance to my students and I can assess whether they engage with module and reward them with marks for doing so.
Being able to create interactive activities for my training courses was the reason for getting an Ispring account. The creative process could have been very overwhelming, but the customer service is what made it an easy process. The customer service and exceptional knowledge and experience of their IT support are so critical for a program like this. I love everything about iSpring and I'm glad I found them.
I wish there were more interactive activity options. I would love to create matching games, drag and drop and "put in order" games.
I am able to create amazing interactive activities
Mit dieser Suite kannst du schnell interaktive und tolle Lerneinheiten bauen. Das Erstellen des Kurses geht einfach und schnell. Der Support ist top - egal zu welcher Zeit - immer verfügbar und top geschult.
Da gibt es von meiner Seite nichts zu erwähnen.
Schnelle und interaktive Lerneinheiten in kurzer Zeit erstellen. Sehr interaktiv und toll bedienbar.
