The two biggest negatives IMO, is that it just isn’t robust enough for e-learning developers and its whole focus on PPT into converting to a course doesn’t help. Screen capture – more and more vendors are adding it. Sure he blasted through it, but with this product you can’t. Yeah, people love it.

This feature set will become a standard for systems in the “cloud&# because of the reasons stated above – everyone hates those options, at T&D departments at their businesses. Remember when only a few offered the PPT to Flash option in their tools? Becoming a standard in the industry.
