Why? Changes in technology mandated that we upgrade from Breeze 5 to Adobe Connect and Presenter. But you should notice relatively few changes if you are a Breeze user. All content has been retained and the web addresses are the same as before. For now, know this:
- Adobe Acrobat Connect creates virtual meetings and classrooms.
- Adobe Presenter publishes Powerpoints as Adobe (formerly Breeze) Presentations to the web.
