It has everything I needed in looking for a quality authoring tool, but Kotobee software can still be improved if it could allow more access to its elements and features even offline. Oh, and I'd also like to add that its customer support is top-of-the-line, since it gives free one-on-one demos or tutorials which the user can schedule in his/her most convenient time.
