Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • -after re-design, so much better -intuitive layout -stable platform (now a real competitor to Z*) -does pod design and use really well
  • As a main pro we know that Adobe Connect has perfect voice playback and recording, we have had no complaints about it from any customer. We were able to set up external online conference integration in addition to the VOIP integration to the toolset. We have been able to allow slide control when there are webinars, previously it was very complicated and it slowed us down a lot. We have also been able to make the recording of such seminars so that customers or consultants who cannot attend can take the information when they need it. We were able to collect a lot of emails to follow up on each report.
  • This software has an extremely advanced user interaction, it shows us in a sidebar how all the material works well and correctly. When we try to connect and dial the server it usually works fine. Although sometimes when we have a presentation there are problems reading it, in general, most of the slides are read properly and correctly.
  • Adobe Connect has many tools that video conferencing services have neglected in recent years such as the focus on live presentation tools, such as the group whiteboard where you can create annotations in real time or the ability to stream shared screens. We recommend the use of Adobe Connect to work with online meetings of any kind, as the platform has many advantages for small and large groups. It is excellent to be able to use Adobe Connect for organized work with shared screens.
  • All content shared within Adobe Connect can be reviewed by the group, unless you choose to edit the privacy levels for each material. Such material can be reviewed externally to meetings through folders, the privacy of which also varies. It should be noted that Adobe Connect also allows the inclusion of audio and video files, so it is possible to evaluate a live mp4 or mp3 file, or simply a static image in png format. Before purchasing Adobe Connect, it is best to familiarize yourself with the trial version, as some tools for broadcasting material may require more experience in the use of the software, and its complexity may discourage administrators from using it, despite all the benefits it offers.

Cons

  • -has a bit of a learning curve -another app to install
  • We have lost space in the email and the respective Chatlog format. Sometimes there is no web browser compatibility at all, it somehow forces us to use the browser they want and not the browser we use in the company.
  • Certain times we have connection problems with the videos, in spite of that we attach them with time at the moment of its reproduction always happens some error and it does not allow to reproduce in a correct way, which can be quite difficult to try to observe what at the moment is transmitted. Some other times the program closes by itself and it is necessary to restart the whole equipment so that it returns to have a correct operation since if we only try to open the program this one will return to block and to close itself.
  • Adobe Connect does not have a good mobile access that allows you to work with electronic signatures while the conferences are taking place, and the quality of the meeting recordings is a bit low compared to services such as Skype. In this regard, the recordings have several problems such as image freezing or the impossibility of sharing through certain channels due to problems with permission settings.
  • Some of the features within Adobe Connect are more rudimentary than in most online meeting software. A sample of this is how confusing it can be to edit pods within created meeting rooms when multiple pods and layouts have already been added. In other words, for organizing material within meeting rooms, the platform is not very approachable.
