Well I am having trouble deciding what to do, I have read things about C3 that say you have problems with robohelp using C3 and flash player version are different. I however have experienced a bug in C2 that has to do with inserting quiz slides alternating with text slides, supposedly its a know glitch. Does anyone know if C3 fixes some of the known bugs and if you have any information you deem helpful that would be great. I have been a captivate user since the first version and just want to make sure I am doing the right thing if I purchase C3.
Thanks
CJ

    Hey there CJ

    Re the use of Captivate, I have had ver1, then 2 and have now bought 3. My job is a training consusltant in build and delivery of computer based training solutions to Corporate clients. I can recommend upgrading to 3 if you have a need for the enhanced functionality that it offers, but (love that word) if you are happy with ver 2 and don't need to upgrade, then think it over first. From this forum you might have noticed that ver3 has its own unique little glitches that need to be managed. In other words, get as much info as possible to enable an informed decision on your part as your own unique circumstances should dictate an upgrade or not.

    Personally, I seriously love ver 3.

    Cheers and luck

    I would definitely download the trial version before you purchase and see if it works any better for you than CP2.
