Likelihood to Recommend	It's good if you have a good use case for that feed. I do know that you have to incorporate it in a process in isolation. It's not you don't realize the full value, so you have to incorporate it into an overall improvement process. I would say the pro cases are marketing optimization with respect to campaigns. And I would say that the areas it's not well suited is in distilling attribution. So if you were to take all of the improvements that it suggested, the numbers exceed revenue, which isn't real, but that's a hard problem to solve. Nobody's really solved that problem well. So distilling the attribution piece would be good. And it is well suited for marketing campaigns in the ideation phase of so Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	Rich and engaging learning experiences that capture employees' attention. Is multi-device capable so our teams can take classes where it's most convenient for them during the day, especially if they don't have an assigned static workstation? Allows us to personalize compliance training based on where our employees are at in the organizational chart, competencies, and requirements.

Likelihood to Renew	It wasn't user friendly enough for me. I had a difficult time navigating it and didn't want to waste too much time trying to figure it all out. If it were more clear cut and to the point I think it would be more worthwhile for someone like me. Incentivized Victoria Davis Owner Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	For shorter learning courses it is probably very capable and gets the job done very nicely. It can be engaging while keeping the users motivated with the gamification features. There are some technical challenges while doing longer courses. But they can be fixed with further updates to the platform and is a promising front.

Performance	The performance of Adobe Captivate Prime is also extremely good. The user interface is fast and easy to load. The complexity is not nearly as bad as some of the other programs on the market. Speed was not impacted. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	I think they have a competent, friendly and "resolving" team. I have only ever been met with a willingness to assist any and every query I have come across.

Implementation Rating	Trial period was great, and It let me plenty of time to try the different feature of the platform. However, when we decided to move forward, the ADOBE team was slow and not reactive at all. Actually after 2 years, I am still waiting for answers which is quite unacceptable.

Return on Investment	Apple built its own LMS (The Grove) on top of the Adobe Learning Manager with Saba, so overall it was a great experiment.
