JUST LAUNCHED! -Captivate 5 and Adobe eLearning Suite 2

We just announced the launch of Captivate 5 and the new Adobe eLearning Suite 2! This is a release the team has been working on for 2 years now. Captivate in its current form and as Robodemo previously, has been around for close to 9 versions. Having started out as an application capture tool, Captivate has since blossomed into the market leader in end-to-end elearning authoring for everything from softskills training to self-running presentations. The growing feature demands in this new role, required that we look at re-architecting this product from scratch. And Captivate 5 is a result of that effort. It is significantly faster and agile than Captivate 4, and the new architecture allows us to build out some nifty features that truly move the bar in eLearning authoring.
Captivate 5, with its optimized UI, now not only looks like a part of pack, but has matured in its role as the quarterback in the new Adobe elearning Suite 2. Captivate allows you to quickly convert concepts to prototypes to fleshed-out rich elearning– with its round-tripping and tight integration with core Adobe asset creation tools like Photoshop CS5 Extended, Flash Pro CS5 and Soundbooth CS5. We believe Karen’s story captures this moment perfectly.
