IS THERE A FREE TRIAL?

PROS
- Ready to go templates
- Media library
- Theme designer
- User-friendly
CONS
- Unable to publish courses using the free version
- Bit sluggish
IN CONCLUSION
I give HowToo a ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The tool boasts an appealing design and user-friendly interface, with a straightforward storyboard structure that facilitates easy addition, removal, and adjustment of content blocks. Time-saving pre-built interactive blocks further streamline the course creation process.
While the theme editor in the free version offers some customization options, additional WYSIWYG editing features that can override the global theme were lacking. However, it’s worth noting that several advanced features are only accessible through a paid subscription.
Although the free version provides access to most functionalities for testing and experimentation, the requirement to upgrade to a paid plan in order to publish courses may be perceived as a limitation. It would be advantageous to have the ability to preview the output on different learner management systems without the need for an upgrade.
