Pros
It’s easy to use. Geared towards non-programmers, the intuitive interface supports those who have little experience with e-learning suites.
It’s compatible with both Mac and PC. The app is also available for both IOS and android.
It supports many standards and formats of information.
Cons
It’s price. Lectora costs $1600 for the core e-learning software and $2500 for the Inspire suite, which includes extra multimedia tools.
It’s lack of “eye candy.” Lectora doesn’t have many tools to add cool graphics of animations.
Lectora offers free trials of all the components. Once you have signed up, Lectora provides online videos tutorials, webinars, and blog posts.
