their level of engagement with mobile users who can access, view and share
high-impact content anytime, quickly and easily.
Companies across the world use Brainshark to improve the ease and
effectiveness of their communications with a Brainshark presentation
viewed every two seconds worldwide. These presentations combine PowerPoint
slides, voice narration, video clips, interactive questions and more, into a
video that can be shared as a link for on-demand consumption. As more
organizations need to deliver timely, easily accessible content to
in-the-field and on-the-go audiences, the Brainshark Mobile Player provides
a superior and intuitive viewing experience. Now with no app or software
downloads necessary viewers who access a Brainshark presentation from an
iPhone, iPad or Android device can expect the same powerful functionality
they would experience on their desktop or laptop computers, including the
ability to:
View and respond to poll, survey and exam questions. This provides an
interactive experience that is ideal for mobile learning (mLearning).
Click to navigate to any point in a presentation.
Open and view attachments associated with a presentation.

In addition, with the Brainshark Mobile Player, organizations can take
advantage of:
Comprehensive mLearning support. Brainshark makes it easy to implement and

making it easy to search, filter, sort, rate and comment on presentations
from virtually any mobile device.
Advanced reporting capabilities. Brainsharks analytics provide in-depth
information about all presentation views with the Brainshark Mobile Player
helping collect important information about mobile activity. Users can see
how long viewers spent watching their presentations, when content was
accessed, which slides were viewed (and in what order), what type of device
was used to access content and how any survey/test questions were answered.
As smartphones and tablets skyrocket in use, its not only important for
companies to deliver content to mobile users but also to deliver it in a
high-impact and intuitive format, said Brainshark CEO Joe Gustafson. The
Brainshark Mobile Player empowers organizations to improve the reach, impact
and effectiveness of their mobile communications. They can use Brainshark to
