iSpring Suite is a rapid learning authoring toolkit produced by iSpring for developing professional e-Learning courses in PowerPoint with embedded (or standalone) quizzes, surveys, and interactions. Output is compatible with mainstream LMS standards (SCORM/AICC), and there is also an option to publish courses specially for BlackBoard LMS. The new xAPI (Tin Can) format for LRSes is supported as well. Output can be a solid SWF file(s), EXE file, HTML page or ZIP archive. Additionally, the cross-platform output format (Flash + HTML5) allows published content to be viewed on any type of modern device.

History

The history of iSpring Suite goes back to 2005, when the team released Flashspring Pro, the prototype of all iSpring products. It was a simple PowerPoint-to-Flash converter with free and commercial versions. Later, iSpring released Flashspring Ultra and SCORM compatibility became available. The companion products FlashSpring Lite and FlashSpring Server were released in 2006 and 2007, respectively. In 2008, FlashSpring was rebranded and got a new name - iSpring. 2009 was the year when the company unveiled a totally updated e-learning tool called iSpring Presenter. This tool found market acceptance due to the high quality of generated courses at a reasonable price. In 2010, iSpring Presenter took the Gold in the Brandon Hall Excellence in Technology Awards in the Rapid Authoring category. In 2011, iSpring products were introduced at European exhibitions for the first time. In the same year, iSpring Suite was released as the successor to iSpring Presenter.

In 2012, Joe Ganci of eLearningJoe published a review of iSpring Suite in Learning Solutions Magazine. In May 2015, Ganci hosted a webinar for Training Magazine Network comparing iSpring Suite alongside five other leading PowerPoint-based e-Learning development tools. Ganci published the final results of his research in an article for Learning Solutions Magazine.

The current version of iSpring Suite, iSpring Suite 8.0, came out in October 2015.

Innovations

iSpring Suite 7

One of the most notable enhancements made to iSpring Suite 7 was the support of combined, cross-platform Flash + HTML5 format. It allowed users to create mobile-ready projects that adapt to any screen size and orientation.

iSpring Suite 7 came with free mobile apps for iOS and Android, which allow offline content viewing. The apps collect statistics on learning activity even with no Internet connection and send them to an LMS once the connection is restored.

Another recent innovation is the capability of adding characters. The built-in character library provides a wide range of characters, both illustrated and photographic. The iSpring Character Wizard helps users create custom characters to fully correspond with the topic of a presentation or an e-Learning course.

iSpring Suite 8

iSpring Suite 8 introduces several unique features to the toolkit.

In version 8, a brand-new conversation simulator was added, allowing users to create simulated dialogues. Also, iSpring Suite 8 was enhanced with a screen recording tool, allowing users to capture the screen and insert the recording on a PowerPoint slide, an audio/video editor both for screen recordings and audio/video narrations, and a video lecture player to show PowerPoint slides and lecture video side by side.

iSpring 8 has passed all compliance tests with the latest versions of Microsoft products, and supports Windows 10 and Office 2016.
