## Reviews

### "Great Program for Developing Courses and Content" — 5.0/5

> **Karen** | *June 13, 2024* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great Program for Developing Courses and Content. &#10;Lots of tutorials and guidance from Atomi.
> 
> **Cons**: I do wish the UI was a bit more intuitive. But eventually, I found what I needed and more.

### "My best choice for creating interactive courses and games" — 5.0/5

> **Angelo** | *March 20, 2024* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked the extensive features you can use and the simplicity of the UI. I created two interactive games and imported my assets without any inconveniences. I exported in HTML5 the final product and it worked fine with any browsers.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't know any cons because during the use if I had a problem in a matter of time the support helped me.
> 
> I use Active Presenter since one of the earliest version if I remember well about 8 years or more ago. I liked the screen record feature you can use with simplicity. I created two interactive games for children in preschooler age about basic English and colours, it was very easy to find how to manage the interactivity and also the support was very fast in giving me a solution when I had to create an interactive bookshelf to sell a market products using custom pictures and Paypal method and buttons.

### "Maybe the best for Video creation - recording your screen." — 5.0/5

> **Vasileios** | *March 16, 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: - Screen Recording&#10;- Easy Video Editing&#10;- Can add narration "Text - to - Speach" with true voices\!&#10;- Can add music background in the whole video, no mater how many slides&#10;- Can make software simulations&#10;- Can make quizes and get the results&#10;- Ideal for Video Tutorials and creation of pre-recorderd courses.
> 
> **Cons**: Not really many things to mention.&#10;Maybe the only drawback is that you have free updates for the major version you buy. But honestly... I wouldn't say that this is strange\! You buy a software and you can use it for as long as you want... and the company gives you free updates for many years... but only for the version you bought. Fair I guess...
> 
> I am creating video tutorials for the software that we provide to our customers.

### "All in 1 screen recording" — 3.0/5

> **beta** | *December 21, 2022* | Animation | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ActivePresenter offers a wide range of features for screen recording, video editing, and e-learning content creation. It has an intuitive and easy-to-use interface, making it suitable for users of all skill levels. It allows you to record your screen, webcam, and audio simultaneously, giving you the option to create videos with multiple layers of audio and visual content.
> 
> **Cons**: I do understand why people like ActivePresenter, but compared to other alternatives, ActivePresenter is quite expensive, and their animation, such as transition, ouch it is ugly, sometimes I feel like using the old windows video editor.
> 
> Overall, as long as you are Okay with their animation quality and the price, ActivePresenter is a great choice for users who need a comprehensive and easy-to-use screen recording. It offers a wide range of features and an intuitive interface makes it suitable for all skill levels.

### "Active Presenter is all you need for professional video creation" — 5.0/5

> **Liz** | *July 21, 2022* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how easy and intuitive Active Presenter is. I have used Captivate and other products and they aren't as easy. Plus Active Presenter is a fraction of their costs and has all the tools I need to create video simulations, interactive videos and just plain tutorials. I also like the ability to effortlessly import slides from PowerPoint. Great product and fabulous customer service\!
> 
> **Cons**: I would like more Animations to choose from to add even more pizzazz, but it has the standard animations that PowerPoint has.
> 
> I have been using Active Presenter for about 6 years now and I can't do my job without it. I don't need a complex or expensive program to create videos, Active Presenter does everything they do. If I have a question, the user forum usually has the answer or I post the question and usually get an answer the next day - that's unbelievable. Plus they stay up to date with their user guide and software updates.
