I like the learner-first-approach in Adobe’s Prime LMS. The design is centered around the user. Its nice to see the feedback loop on course effectiveness which is based on tests and manager feedback. Cloud based model, security and disaster management are other key parameters that makes it rank higher than other LMSs.
What do you dislike?
It is cloudbased so it needs connectivity for most features to work. However, offline and sync facility is available when not connected.

Adobe Captivate Prime is not free, after trial one has to part with $4/month per learner registered. i understand this is a way to keep the software going, but free software have a way to keep them going too without making them a must pay. Either way, i guess someone has to pay something!

Before going in to this LMS, in my opinion, learners generally want simplicity, speed and a easy way to grasp what is there. It seems like Captivate LMS is simple and fast. The grasping part comes in the course material and how you can make those interesting.

Content creation facilities are good. You can keep content in a repository and use them for different courses depending on the structure, module, learning plan or certification. AICC, xAPI and SCORM compliant packages and content can be consumed in single player which is a neat feature.
What do you dislike?
Although the content languages are in abundance, it needs more interface languages if it needs to adopted by larger multinationals.

With a lot of hosting and server constraints, organizations heavily rely on cloud based software and platforms. Adobe Captivate Prime operates on a SaaS model so that is really good. Security, server constraints, hosting, stability and service are all taken care of. The pricing is easy to understand and work with, especially for smaller organizations.

The stability, readability and navigation on the mobile apps need a little work though. It keeps improving so that’s a good sign.

Saves a lot of time which would have gone in downloading supporting tools.

There are a lot of focus on automation these days, no one likes manual tasks.

The peer comparison and gamification features are good.

Providing learners with a stimulating experience: The Fluidic Player offers a unified reading experience for almost any content. Learners can easily access videos, PDF, PPT and DOCX files, as well as SCORM and AICC compliant packages (without having to download plug-ins), for minimal latency. With this reader, they can also create bookmarks and enhance their content with explanatory notes for future reference.
What do you dislike?
In short, Captivate is clearly moving towards multi-support, even if the need to work on each of the different views is not as automatic as a responsive design, and must therefore be taken into account in project costing and scheduling. Software first used to train software applications, Captivate offers more and more opportunities to build e-learnings for any formative content, with possibilities of scripting and interactivity increasingly rich.

It was a good experience using Adobe Captivate Prime for internal learning in our company. I liked a few things while being a user of this platform. First of all, I liked the gamification system with all these badges, points, and notifications. It motivates you to learn more effectively. Secondly, it was easy for me to use an iPad App and Browser to view the learning courses content. So that, I could access the courses anywhere at the go. Thanks for such a useful platform!
What do you dislike?
There are not enough features to connect with the other users and learners. For example, if I have a question about the course, I would like to have a chance to connect the teacher or my colleagues and other learners inside the chat or some forum.

I personally like the User Interface that's simple, easy to use for users, and well-structured for admins. We also like the Fluidic Player for different content such as videos, PDFs, PPTs, Word, Excel, as well as, SCORM. Since we are developing courses in Articulate 360, it's easy for us to import our company's interactive content via SCORM and make it work in Adobe Captive Prime. That's crucial for us!
What do you dislike?
It would nice to add more flexibility and e-Learning features to develop courses inside the Adobe Captive Prime. So we could use one platform for building and managing courses.

From a Manager, Learner and Admin prospective, I like the ability of the user to be able to directly provide feedback to the manager on the course. From a Learner prospective, the interface is quite nice. I am able to easily find the tools such as the calendar, catalog, job aids, etc. Everything is rasy to view and navigate without having to dive into sub menus. Overall - I felt there was a good number of tutorials on each permission set, that guide you through the process.
What do you dislike?
Social widgets appear to be completely absent from Prime and social engagement with the learning content, course completions, points, etc. is a feature that is high demand for today's learners.

As an admin, I would say I like the "Connector" simplicity. It was awesome. If you say to "importing users has to be painless", you should see that. I've impressed. Honestly, I never before thought I need to "Instances" in the LMS but Captivate Prime impressed me. Thanks to "Instances", your users can take the different version of the course at different time periods. Another great feature for me, to add the new language version of a course. In place, in minimal. It is a good experience.
What do you dislike?
I think the "Learning Programs" steps can be more user-friendly. While I am filling the forms, my eyes searched the next button or save button.

I was impressed with the simple interface that reduced the platform learning curve for me and the course set up/deployment time. I also liked that it has gamification elements available for use for individual or group learning. On the pricing module, I like the flexibility to add and remove users on a monthly basis, which is ideal for selling subscription-based courses.
What do you dislike?
I would like to see a pricing module targeted at educational institutions as there currently doesn’t seem to be one. It is unfortunate that it seems only targeted at corporate institutions at this point.

This platform is really interesting for learning managers. It has many features that allow an effective learner administration and different ways to manage users (external or internal). You can add users by uploading from a spreadsheet, create groups of learners based on location or business unit, use self enrollment or automate the adding new users. It also supports interactive content like Scorm, AICC, Tincan and regular content like Videos, Pdfs, PPTs, word and excel files.
What do you dislike?
The tools to create courses are very basic so it is recommended to create courses using other tools like Captivate and upload the content. You can also add activities and tests, but they also have to be created using another tool because it only allows you to add an external URL for learners to refer to, or have students submit files.

Love the booking Virtual class sessions and face to face Lessons with Very good Tracking and accountability built in. As a registered Adobe user, quality is very high I recommend the integration of Adobe assets with this LMS.
What do you dislike?
Found the course more suitable to commercial application. It is important to have all your assets ready to start building the course and it would take some planning beforehand. This is not an LMS for lighthearted course development, and I do see this LMS as best suited to an ultra security conscious commercial environment that protects its assets like fort knox! For this reason alone, as a business, I would buy it.

Adobe Captivate Prime is the latest ring of the chain. We are using Adobe Captivate for rapid course creation and Adobe Connect for webinars. So, on the LMS side, Adobe Captivate Prime gives us an opportunity to manage our eLearning lifecycle from a single point. You have everything under the one band. It gives you a single point of support contact.

In my opinion, the user interface needs to be developed for user experience. But I can say that if you are using a big brand and have a good support user-interface is the second issue.
