Captivate’s features do not seem as robust or easy to use. It can be difficult to even find some simple things. Storyline is very similar to Microsoft PowerPoint, so if you are familiar with that, you’ll have a much better time learning it.
Articulate 360 is very easy to use and can create a variety of different media and interactive activities - more than Camtasia. Camtasia is very video centered. Articulate 360 can use video but it can also use still photos, audio, interactive content, and allows users to go …
I used Adobe Captivate when I first started my role as an ID. After doing some research, I found Articulate 360 and have been hooked since. I immediately sold my leader on the idea to invest in the tool.
Articulate 360 is the industry leader for e-learning authoring. While we use the Adobe Creative Suite for artistic support, we find that when it comes to authoring tools, Articulate products are superior in both design and accessibility. Articulate 360 has strong support …
Articulate 360 is much more intuitive and user-friendly than other products. If you can imagine it, you can probably build it in Storyline, but it won’t take you weeks' worth of learning and reading to figure it out.
Articulate 360 is easier to use out of the box. It is much more intuitive and does not require as much specialized knowledge. It makes learning design simple and fun. It also allows for just as much customization and looks just as good. It really is a seamless piece of software.
We still use Camtasia for some video generation. The Camtasia timeline is easier to work with-but I find that Storyline has more customizable options when it comes to video generation.
The functionality, which includes layers,
triggers, states, and variables, provides flexibility and creative
possibilities that can’t be found in any other authoring tools.

Chose Articulate 360
Articulate 360 offers more variety and is easier to use. For me, if you can use PowerPoint, you can use Storyline.
Articulate 360 leaves Captivate in the dust. The look and feel of Articulate 360 products is so much more sleek and flexible. Captivate feels constrained and clunky in comparison.
The wide breadth of options that Articulate 360 offers is very real boon. Being able to implement simple, Cloud based builds and more robust, from scratch trainings and modules all in one place across different offerings is very helpful. I enjoy that it is easy to implement …
It stacks up very well, but I do have to utilize other tools to create the engaging content like videos and editing footage. For building basic graphics it is fine, but for more brand aligned imagery I rely on other programs. Like videos production it still mostly handled by …
I have not used any other elearning development software other than Articulate 360. Though, I have seen demos of other products and while they are great, they still don’t seem to be as great as Articulate 360. This opinion also shows up in other places like product reviews and …
It is far, far superior. Easier to use, faster, more stable, just as customizable, and meets our use cases. It doesn’t assume the devs know better how to use the tool than I do.
Captivate is clunky and hard to use by comparison. Elucidat is chasing needs I don’t really have.
Articulate 360 is great for online courses, courses for an LMS, courses that use media, text to speech audio, interactive items. Courses can be translated into other languages quickly. You can bring in outside media into the course pretty easily. The layouts are professional looking and blocks can be copied easily and repeated as needed.
Unrivaled Power and Customization. After 15 years in the training industry, Storyline 360 remains my favorite tool because it is, simply put, the most powerful authoring tool I have ever used, giving me complete creative control.
Advanced Interactivity. I love being able to 'overengineer' content using Triggers, Variables, States, and Layers, which allows me to build the most sophisticated and deep functionality.
Superior to Basic Tools. Storyline's capability to build detailed branching scenarios and realistic simulations sets it leaps and bounds apart from basic tools like PowerPoint, which is essential for high-impact training.
I haven't seen any other platform for developing learning materials that is as comprehensive or as reliable as Articulate has proven to be for our use. Because our group has a number of PowerPoint power users, the PowerPoint integration with Articulate is particularly beneficial.
Usability is where Articulate shines. Anyone who has ever built a PowerPoint can open the tool and quickly understand how to use it. The more complex aspects of the tool are also very user-friendly, but you can build great content without ever going into advanced variables or JavaScript.
I rate the overall support for Articulate 360 with a 9. On the one hand because of the smooth and accurate support from Articulate's support team (usually within 24 hours) and on the other because of the commitment / use of a community (e-learning Heroes) where I have all kinds of insights from other helpful users.
The online training options given by the online tutorials, forums, and "E-Learning Heroes" community are simply awesome. Examples galore, easy to understand descriptions including step-by-step guides, images, occasionally videos, and the "Articulate Insiders" sub-community give you more materials to learn about Storyline than you are likely to be able to read.
Outside of having to dedicate a powerful enough PC for the installation and having to update Flash in our browsers there really isn't much pain involved in using Articulate. For the most part this is an easy to implement and roll-out product. The installation occurs quickly and smoothly with no additional steps needed.
I have not used any other elearning development software other than Articulate 360. Though, I have seen demos of other products and while they are great, they still don’t seem to be as great as Articulate 360. This opinion also shows up in other places like product reviews and instructional design groups on Facebook.
