Adobe Learning Manager (formerly Adobe Captivate Prime) Pros and Cons

Adobe has terriffic customer support. They are very responsive to the suggestions to improve the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does some things very well. However, it does not provide the basic functions that an LMS should. The system does not propperly support a Prerequisite function. A learner should not be able to enroll or secure a seat in a classroom course when there is a prerequisite and it is not complete. When utilizing plans and paths, Learner rosters are not available to view as an administrator, only if you are assigned as the instructor can you view the list. Reporting on Paths really needs some attention. It reports the path progress only, not the individual courses in the path. Learner interface is a little confusing for them. It takes a while for them to figure it out... I have a long list of these basic functions that this LMS does not support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It seems like it can do a lot, and our account manager and the support team is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fluidic player - even though I use Adobe Captivate it interfears with the accessabiity and table of contents.

Emailling support multiple times in one day makes Zendesk think it's for the same ticket - to prevent confusion I had to make my own Zendesk account and log tickets that way.

No ticketing system for enhancement requests, it just dissapears. I want to log and track the requests myself.

Hard to use, e.g. for an instance I have to create in VC, task, and Learning Path. I have to assign an instructor to VC and task. Lots of places to trip up.

Not enough training avaliable - not in depth enough.

Not enough capability for instructors - so we end up having to give them admin rights - e.g to mark a course as manually complete, to archive their old marked stuff. etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Adobe Learning Manager is it is easy and convenient for our employees to use. I also like that we can set due dates and automatic reminders for training that is required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think reporting could be more streamlined. It can be cumbersome at times to find the information that I'm looking for in order to report on it. I'm not sure if this already exists, but I would love to receive auto updates or notifications when I log in of any changes/updates from an administrative side. I know there are online trainings, but little tips or something would be a quick, easy reminder of new things that I could start to utilize right away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of adding a new user account, the ability to have dynamic content with buttons, next/back, and quiz functions. We liked that one course could be instantly sent to relevant groups based on manager or other data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The experience is not seamless and easy all-around. For example, new users are easily misled to enter their email and end up in a dead-end when they ought to click "Create Account" during registration. If they've already identified they're a new user who needs to register, the next page should not have a space for them to enter email address and then above it "Create account" it should just skip to the create account prompts.

The ALM is easy for learners to find and take courses that are assigned to them or recommended, and also simple to search and take courses in their catalog. This is what a company wants in an LMS: ease of use for its learners, who need to quickly locate and obtain the knowledge necessary. A big plus for me personally as an admin is that Adobe support is very responsive to any client questions, so working with their staff is a pleasure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some enhancements our company would like, but as a relatively new LMS, not all functions are not yet there. Due to the daily mobility of our staff in the hospitality industry, we wish we could leverage the mobile app more: that it would run courses with quizzes, allow courses with multiple attempts, and be able to share info between the mobile and desktop apps without being offline. It would also be nice to be able to limit admin capabilities to certain catalogs only, and I would also like to see the ability to create dashboard reports with multiple courses (now it is one or all).

Adobe is one of the applications that i have used is something which is very rare to find. It is a ecclectic mix of technology, art and ease of access. The way it provides emplowerement is absolutely amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ideally speaking, each program or application has itspros and cons. however Adobe is one such application that has very little areas of improvements. The AOIs are there however very negligible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It really is a pretty easy program to learn. I didn't come to this with a lot of e-learning experience and was able to pick it up quickly. It looks great and is easy to upload SCORM files into. It has great quiz-reporting capabilities, and the reports I see are in the form of an Excel spreadsheet and include lots of well-organized information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our group cannot turn off the scrollbar at the bottom of classes. Even though we have hidden this function, you can still see it. We don't want a scrollbar on all of our content because it is educational, and learners could use this to skip through it. After speaking with Adobe reps, we were told the only way to fix this was to do enhanced customization. Our company is very large, and this would remove the scrollbar for everyone on our account. It's an all-or-nothing solution that is very frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe is an easy tool which helps us cascade updates within the organization helping employees stay on top of all they need to know about their work on a regular basis Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing that i dislike about it. It can sometimes be a little difficult to get the usernames when we have 1 or more employees with the same names. Everything else is just fine Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
