Our verdict on Respond5
Respond5 is a cloud-based authoring tool for organizations and course creators making e-learning content for different screen sizes and devices. It is particularly suited to teams that want to turn video into tracked SCORM courses, then add assessments and interactive elements. Responsive output, course flow control, bookmarking, and learner reporting address both the learning experience and progress tracking. Its stated fit includes small and mid-market organizations.
The authoring workflow spans video conversion, quizzes, multi-bank exams, and drag-and-drop widgets for interactive content. Inline editing supports instant content updates, while custom HTML, Canvas, JavaScript, and third-party animations offer ways to add tailored elements. After publishing, SCORM tracking and quiz tracking help capture learner activity and results. This breadth makes Respond5 more suitable for teams creating tracked courses from video and mixed content than for buyers seeking only a basic page or slide authoring tool. Its listed integrations include Google Analytics, Adobe Animate CC, Adobe Captivate, and Articulate Storyline.
According to the vendor's pricing information, prospective customers must contact sales for pricing; a free plan is not offered, and a 21-day trial is available. That means buyers will need a vendor conversation to assess cost, rather than compare published plan tiers. Respond5 is a reasonable fit when responsive SCORM output, video conversion, and learner tracking are central requirements. Teams that need a self-serve free tier, transparent plan pricing, or a broader listed integration ecosystem may want to compare alternatives before committing.
