Uniconverter from Wondershare is a software that allows the user to download, compress, edit, burn, and transfer videos. Uniconverter is designed to present an all-in-one tool for video making and editing
Adobe Presenter interface and its complete integration with Powerpoint eliminates the need for additional training or knowledge of Flash programming.While this saves time for the more sophisticated presenter it is less useful for day to day status presentations. There is no substitute for knowing your audience
For any kind of video converting Uniconverter is the perfect tool. It is easy to use. The converting function is quick and precise and the result is excellent. If you need to convert your clips for social media or even convert full movies to be watched on smartphones or any other mobile device it is perfect.
It is very easy for faculty to use. Even those who have limited experience in creating online courses feel comfortable using Presenter.
It allows our faculty to have students working in different areas at the same time so we are able to individualize our instruction to meet student needs.
The quiz feature is fantastic to be able to quickly assess student learning to determine if they are ready to move forward.
Converts video files into different formats (CODECs), which is necessary for editing and for the output of finished files.
Lets you convert many characteristics of the video file, such as CODEC, frame rate, frame size, etc, which is great as different uses of video require files made to widely varying specs.
Lets you convert among many video CODEC, so you can make video fies for just about any need.
Uniconverter is also very useful in downloading video from many websites.
I only ask for one additional feature and that is to be able to 'normalise' the audio level when the production includes audio tracks drawn from different sources as such levels can vary widely.
My company is pretty invested in the Adobe ecosystem and is unlikely to change that in the foreseeable future. Also, Adobe Presenter is a very valuable tool and, with the new subscription model and the pricing we have, a relatively modest expense now. It's also fairly easy to learn and use, so it is starting to spread beyond the sphere of the various Learning & Development departments.
For all of the reasons I mentioned earlier. Overall, it's quite easy to create basic presentations with and to publish output with, either to an Adobe server, an LMS, or, I think, as stand-alone module. But there are some areas for improvement and better in-product help and explanations would be helpful, as well.
It's so easy to use, user interface is simple and allows you to click buttons with more advanced options if you need them. The tutorials teach you how to do most of what you may need to do. You don't need to get a masters degree to use this tool.
It is easy to access since it is an added tool to the Powerpoint program. We have not had complaints from faculty members regarding not having it available when they need it.
Due to the aforementioned issues with Flash, it can be discouraging to get to the publishing stage and begin receiving error messages. Once we are able to move past that issue, we have great success with the performance of Adobe Presenter.
I think I pretty much answered this earlier....premium support is extremely expensive and online support can be difficult to navigate. Although, to be fair, when it comes to Presenter (compared to, say, Captivate), there isn't too frequent a need for support, since Presenter is a rather simple tool to use
To recap, it falls short in the quality of the deliverables compared to some others. That said, it is well within acceptable range for many learning environments and audiences. It also is significantly more flexible and affordable than anything else. If I had only one e-learning solution to pick, this would be the one. It is, in fact, my "Go to" solution most of the time..
I've used many products and while none are perfect, all except Wondershare conduct themselves appropriately and function within existing frameworks for customer service, warranty etc.
The program still seems to rely heavily on Adobe Flash even though the online community is moving away from it. When publishing, users will experience error messages regarding Flash, which can make it difficult to complete your work.
Been central system for learning about the Products within the Organization.
Assessments can be taken multiple times and the questions remains the same, no changes on the pattern as well making it easy to copy from other attempts.
Single platform for all the learning so didn't have to go around multiple places looking for answers.
Given the low cost of Uniconverter, this product has helped us convert files faster, letting us complete editing projects more quickly, which is great. It's very necessary to be able to convert video files as needed.
