Features & Benefits
Capture
Capture Wide Spectrum of Applications
Capture on mainstream Windows Java, Green screen, IE browser based
applications, Enterprise applications such as SAP, Oracle, MATLAB, and
PeopleSoft to name a few, CAD (CATIA, UGNX, etc.), Citrix & .NET applications.
Capture applications robustly & accurately
Decrease post capture effort for publication-ready content. Reduce the
turnaround time for content development. All menu selections, mouse
movements and events, typing, drop down lists and other controls are
comprehensively captured. Also select the specific region in which you want to
capture using the ‘Custom size’ capture option.
Employ Templates for Sentence description
Automatically generate step descriptions (sentences) for captured steps. Edit,
format or create new templates to suit the organization’s consistent style and
standard. New sentence formats can be created in different languages as well.
Capture Full Motion of objects
Enable the SME to record screen actions in the form of a full motion movie.
Useful when objects in motion have to be captured and simulated. Typically
used in engineering design applications (CAD/CAM) training where 3D objects
are used.
Record / Attach Audio
Record or attach audio files (WAV, MP3, and WMA) to any step of the business
process.
Use Aliases
Some applications do not support capture of objects names like Text Boxes,
Dropdown List Boxes, Check Boxes, and Buttons etc. or may not have names for
some objects. In such cases, an alias names can be defined which automatically
get applied to the object in all future captures on the application.
Mask Images
Post capture sensitive information can be masked thereby preventing the flow
of information into the published content.
Secure & Mask Text
Post capture any field can be marked as secured and the text can be masked.
Once marked as secure, all future captures of that field will be treated as a
secure control. Permits securing of sensitive information like password fields
and Social Security Number in published content.

Develop & Edit
Preview each Process Step as an epiLearn
Get a feel of the output immediately using this feature. View the changes made
to a process step then and there without having to generate the complete
epiLearn.
Attach Audio / Video
Audio and video files can be attached to the steps of a simulation output.
Enable the transfer of the tacit knowledge of the developer to the end users.
Use Annotations
Provide instructional feedback in the form of hints, tips, encouragement to end
users through the various annotations types– Callouts, Sticky notes, Rollovers,
etc.
Spell Check
Check spelling in files with options to check either step-by-step in a process or
the complete process.
Generate Template based Outputs
The simulation and document outputs are template based. Epiplex500 provides
various templates along with the product installation. New custom templates
can be developed through an editor. Organizations can develop and publish
content in accordance with their corporate standards, themes and layouts.
Password Protect PDF
Secure your PDFs with a password preventing unauthorized people from
sharing, viewing, printing or altering them. Document control & rights
management is crucial when dealing with sensitive content.
Enterprise Repository Management System (ERMS)
ERMS is the web-based collaborative content management and distribution
system with the following features:
Control different versions of files
Enable different users – authors, reviewers & publishers- to modify/edit capture
files several times without overwriting the original content. Eliminate the
difficulty in tracking different versions submitted by the users.
Integrate Legacy & External Content with Epiplex500 Content
Legacy, External and Epiplex500 generated content can be ‘Checked in’ and
‘Checked out’ of ERMS. Single files of Legacy and External content are
supported.

8. Epiplex500 Enterprise - Product Datasheet
Provide multiple level role based access to users
The 3 types of Users – Administrator, Repository Manager & End User – have
different domains of tasks/functions.
Store Content in a Central Repository
Store content in a common location for sharing, facilitating Collaborative
authoring, Content management & Authoring development workflows in
different geographical locations.
Send Automatic Alerts
E-mail alerts, sent to Users of a Group when items of interest are ‘Checked in’,
modified or edited, notify them regarding any changes made. This provides
visibility on the status of the development work.
EpiTracker
EpiTracker is a tracking & reporting system for monitoring user competency.
Create users & content groups. Set preferences or parameters for the
information that needs to be tracked for the different content types used by
end users. Apply common filters to all generated reports and display key
performance metrics including:
 Users with results more/less than a specified score
 Users who have passed/failed (obtained more than a certain pass score)
 Users who have passed/failed
 Reports within a specific period of time
Export or pass the tracked results to a SCORM compliant LMS.
Epiplex500 License Management System (ELMS)
The ELMS is the license management system, for organizations, to optimize &
effectively use their Epiplex500 licenses.
Create users and assign them to groups. Allocate Epiplex500 licenses to groups.
Manage them by assigning for specific lengths of time to certain groups. Save
you the hassle of deactivating licenses as those which lapse the allotted days
will be automatically deactivated and made available for further use by another
user. Optimize & plan the usage of licenses with the useful License utilization,
availability & allocation reports, obtained daily, weekly or monthly and can be
exported to Excel or even printed.
