What do you like best? This tool is very intuitive and I’ve created a lot of high quality content with it. I really like the data import and export options.
What do you dislike? I think it’s best to know how to code for maximum results. I cannot really think of anything else to mention in this section.

What do you like best? I have a lot of experience with authoring tools and I can safely say that mAuthor offers more options than anything else I've used.
What do you dislike? When the content gets a bit more complicated and “heavy” the software has trouble keeping up which leads to delays and small bugs.

What do you like best? this software really offers limitless possibilities, as long as you know how to make use of them. We have been able to create all sorts of eLearning content using the features available.
What do you dislike? The only problem we have encountered was when our content was too large. If we don’t break it into smaller pieces, the software can’t process it properly.

What do you like best? Overall, this is a very good system that has helped us achieve our training goals. We had sufficient help during our initial training with the software and we were able to quickly tackle various issues.
What do you dislike? Unfortunately, it seems that less tech-savvy users are finding it very hard to operate this software. This has happened with other software as well, but it still makes things difficult for us.

What do you like best? This authoring tool is very intuitive and we can easily create educational content. I appreciate how versatile and easy it has been so far.
What do you dislike? Data import and export is a little time-consuming. There are other small improvements that would make the software better, such as being able to select more than one asset at the same time.
