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.
