iSpring Suite

A revolução da educação a distância de qualidade

Comentários: Estamos migrando todo o conteúdo da educação de jovens e adultos, ensino fundamental e médio, e de cursos de educação profissional tecnológica, além de desenvolver outros projetos de treinamento. Resultados visualmente impactantes aos estudantes, com muitos recursos de aprendizagem, funcionais e de fácil acesso e utilização.

Vantagens:

A possibilidade de integrar vídeos, telas de navegação, interações, exercícios em um único arquivo facilita muito a gestão do conteúdo e a disponibilidade oferecida aos alunos. Além disso, integra-se facilmente ao ambiente moodle, incluindo seu aplicativo. Ainda, a possibilidade de publicar o curso online, indepentende de outro ambiente de aprendizagem, facilita e populariza o uso do recurso, tornando as aulas fáceis de serem implementadas na educação a distância.

Desvantagens:

Tive dificuldades em acessar e deixar a biblioteca logada, para acesso aos personagens, fundos, e demais itens. A atualização do software corrige detalhes que não estavam funcionando bem, como por exemplo, ao copiar uma tela com exercícios para outro conjunto de slides, não conseguir acessar, e precisar refazer.

Great product!

Comentários: I use it all the time to create eLearning content. It has multiple applications, such as learning courses, quizzes, conversation simulations, flip books, and more. Highly recommend.

Vantagens:

I have been using the iSpring Suite for a few years now, primarily as a PowerPoint plugin to create eLearning and publish it in Scorm 1.2 format. It's very easy to turn a regular PowerPoint presentation into an interactive eLearning course.

Desvantagens:

It's a great product. Using the suite through PowerPoint is powerful, but limiting if you don't use Office365.

Great support

Comentários: We have used multiple versions in our company and hardly ever have any issues. In our last issue we had great continuous support, and fast too.

Vantagens:

It takes some getting used to but when you know what to do, it's very easy to use with a lot of options - it has almost everything to create interactive courses.

Desvantagens:

It's tough to share items and without zipping it will not store as a packaged course - so when IT transferred all our files from C: overnight, all my courses (that weren't in backup yet) were torn apart. You HVE to keep this in mind or start using the iSpring Share option.

Razões para mudar para o iSpring Suite: Know the product and not many differences in either price or functionalities.

An intuitive time-saver

Comentários: My job entails training those in caring professions how to use software - be it bespoke packages, or how to use Microsoft Excel to analyse statistics and everything in-between. Taking time out of busy and unpredictable schedules to attend an all day course on Advanced Excel is often not an option. iSpring Suite is allowing courses to be broken down into 15/20 minute 'learning episodes' that are more manageable. Furthermore, staff working nights are able to more readily access learning - something that was difficult in the past... Overall the software will improve access and participation, reducing IT Support workloads and helping ensure compliance, competence and ultimately provide more stimulating, engaging work.

Vantagens:

The iSpring Suite bridges the gap between mundane PowerPoint based training, and more complex flash or HTML 5 based digital training, that requires a specific skills set that does not necessarily correspond with those of a teacher or trainer. It provides the right mix of interactivity to engage those of all learning biases, the versatility to cover almost any topic and a good range of assessment and analytics to simplify assessment and training effectiveness. Given that there is almost zero learning curve with the software, and the SCORM compliance enabling use with any Learning Management System worth it's salt, it's a extremely cost effective solution that simply lets you get on with creating content. Furthermore, should you be au fait with HTML and CSS, the output generated can by tweaked if required, but the standard interface and options provide a clean, user friendly and attractive front end to courses.

Desvantagens:

The only slight tarnish on an otherwise perfect product is the lack of titling facilities within the screen/video capture module, iCamPro. This is a minor niggle, given that the iSpring Suite is integrated into PowerPoint, which can be used to bridge this shortfall through appropriate use of animation and export to WMV which can then be spliced into video files as required...

Great Product and User Friendly!

Comentários: Absolutley satisfied with this product and will continue to use and reccomend it!

Vantagens:

This product is very user friendy for anyone who is technical. I would even say for those who aren't real tech savvy that atleast know their way around PowerPoint can get the hand of this product pretty quickly. It is a very easy way to develop and deploy computer based training modules!

Desvantagens:

One of the main improvements I can see is the functionality between the narrartion and navigation. If there were an option for the Next button to not appear until after the narration completed on a slide would be great! You can still make this happen, there is just a little bit of a work around for it.
