CenarioVR is an online course authoring tool from ELB Learning for organizations creating immersive training scenarios. Authors can upload 360° images or video, connect scenes with hotspots, add multimedia and 3D GLB objects, and build conditional interactions. The product is suited to onboarding, safety, healthcare and simulation-based learning, especially when learners need to explore a visual environment rather than follow a conventional slide-based course. No headset is required, and published experiences can run across web, Windows, iOS and Android platforms.

Its strongest distinction is the depth of its scenario authoring model. Timed interactions, branching, quizzes and automatic scoring support decision-based learning, while animated hotspots and 3D objects add interaction beyond a static 360° scene. The media library includes icons, actions, shapes and 3D objects. CenarioVR also provides an analytics dashboard with xAPI tracking, and its publishing options include SCORM, xAPI, CMI5 and HTML. These capabilities make it a strong fit for teams that need immersive practice and measurable learner outcomes in an LMS or learning record store.

Platform fit is broad, with integrations for Lectora, SCORM-based LMSs and xAPI learning record stores. Nightly encrypted backups support content continuity, while eligible plans allow scenario sharing with other authors. The trade-off is focus: teams seeking a broad, general-purpose course builder may prefer a tool centered on conventional pages, assessments and content workflows. CenarioVR is the better choice for 360° simulation and branching practice; it is less suitable when immersive scenario work is only a small part of a wider authoring requirement.
