Adobe Acrobat Connect is software used to create online presentations, trainings, and meetings. It allows users to share their screen, PowerPoint files, and invite attendees to view or collaborate. Meetings take place in "pods" which organize different sharing and collaboration tools. Users create meeting rooms by logging into their Connect Pro account and filling out a meeting name and URL. They can then share their screen, PowerPoint files, and invite others to join by sharing the meeting URL.
