Macromedia launches RoboDemo 5

Macromedia has announced the immediate availability of Macromedia RoboDemo 5 in Europe.
RoboDemo enables the user to easily create interactive, Flash-based software simulations without any Flash or programming knowledge required. With RoboDemo, trainers, instructional designers, application support staff as well as sales and marketing experts can quickly develop compelling Rich-Media software simulations for effective training courses and product demonstrations.
RoboDemo records the use of any application, or on-screen activity. After completion, RoboDemo instantly generates a high-resolution Flash movie in compact file size. Simulations created with RoboDemo include visible and audible mouse clicks as well as automatically generated text captions in nine languages, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Swedish, Spanish, and Portuguese. Users can edit their movies even after the recording is finished with RoboDemo's powerful editing capabilities. This flexibility dramatically accelerates development times and enables users to create professional simulations faster than ever before.
RoboDemo simulations and demonstrations can be easily enhanced with Rich Media, such as audio, video and Flash as well multiple levels of interactivity using text entry fields and click boxes. Advanced eLearning features such as quizzing, scoring and branching and compliance with industry standards SCORM 1.2 and AICC allow the integration of data generated by RoboDemo with any Learning Management System (LMS).
"We use Macromedia RoboDemo to create interactive web-based training to several thousand Bayer employees for information systems, management software, our catalogue system and other key corporate applications in HR, sales and marketing, management and IT support," said Ellen Trude, eLearning Manager for the Bayer Training Portal at Bayer Business Services GmbH. "We were able to easily create IT-training, demos and software simulations using RoboDemo. We highly recommend RoboDemo."
