Articulate 360 has gained popularity as a reliable alternative to the Adobe suite, reducing users' reliance on multiple software tools. Customers have found value in its comprehensive suite, utilizing various tools like Studio, Replay, Storyline, Rise, Peek, and Preso for e-learning development. The software has been widely adopted across different sectors ranging from K-12 education school districts to large customer service organizations. It is used for a multitude of purposes such as ongoing training, onboarding and development of internal corporate employees, and creating SCORM learning modules on compliance, leadership training, product knowledge, and soft skills.

Instructional designers recommend Articulate 360 for its speed and ease of use, particularly with tools like Rise and Review. The ability to efficiently gather feedback within courses is also a standout feature that allows learners to make comments directly within the course and track them at the slide and layer level. Additionally, the software's integration capabilities make it easy to package webinars into on-demand formats and implement components onto websites. Users appreciate Articulate 360's mobile device support, collaboration through Review, and the extensive Content Library available for creating well-designed e-learning solutions. While occasional crashes have been reported by some users attributed to compatibility and memory issues with their computers, overall, Articulate 360 streamlines the e-learning development process and makes client reviews efficient.

Users have provided several recommendations for Articulate 360 based on their experiences with the program. The three most common recommendations are as follows:

  1. Try the trial version and watch tutorial videos: Many users suggest taking advantage of the trial period and watching tutorial videos to assess the capabilities of Articulate 360. This allows users to get a feel for the platform and its quality before committing to a subscription.

  2. Start with Articulate Rise for easier course development: Several reviewers recommend starting with Articulate Rise for simpler course development. They find it easier to use and appreciate its flexibility and responsiveness in creating web-based training and robust e-learning content.

Overall, users find Articulate 360 to be a powerful program worth the investment. It is considered easier to use than its competitors, especially for creating engaging presentations, high-quality e-learning content, and interactive materials. The collaboration and administrative functions are also praised for their convenience. However, some users note that it may not meet all classroom and educator needs, so it is recommended to evaluate if the full suite of Articulate 360 is necessary before subscribing. Additionally, users suggest keeping an eye out for improvements in Storyline 360 and new content or functions in Rise. While there may be a few bugs that need to be worked out, Articulate 360 is regarded as the best tool on the market for rapid e-learning development, offering an integrated solution that streamlines training development processes.

I have always found the support of staff and the wider Articulate community to be excellent. Staff are active on forums and on the occasions I have submitted a ticket the technical support team have endeavored to help me out in a timely manner. The community support is unparalleled, with a very active user cohort who are always willing to share their advice.

Articulate 360 the industry standard for a reason. It provides you with everything you need to create fully interactive online learning. The only thing that might make your courses better is being highly skilled in HTML5

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.

I think Articulate 360's support is where they excel. Their staff know that helping us to look good reflects positively on them. Answers to any questions are just a message or an email away.

I have never before dealt with any company in any field that had such an amazing support team. From the way they foster their community of users, to the guys who look at the support cases, they are all incredible: friendly and prompt. Any time I have submitted a support request, they have responded within 24 hours (usually within a couple of hours) and always solved my problem and made sure to follow up. Incredible!

It took forever to get someone to respond--either by email or by phone--directly to a pricing and licensing question. It is unfortunate that a company that has such potential as a streamlined course building/authoring tool not only missed the boat with service but also proves itself to be all fluff and no substance.

The customer support teams are very responsive. There are also a number of resources on the site that provide training for using Articulate tools. The best support is the community. There is a large user base and there is a dedicated community site where people provide advice and support on a number of different use cases for Articulate, including more obscure applications. I found that in most cases, I could find support on the community site (which has Articulate employees also helping) for almost any issue I ran into.

The support service is very fast and efficient in addition to the community of Articulate heroes. It is very complete and the entire team is always available to answer questions or problems that arise with the use of the software. Both the attention by email and the online support are very friendly at all times.

While using Articulate 360, I once encountered an error where the backup functionality of the tool would essentially lock me out of the version of a course that I was working on and force me to create a new version of the file each time I saved. The articulate response team was so responsive. After submitting my support ticket, they contacted same-day via email to learn more about the problem. Within two business days, they had me on a call and were remotely accessing my environment to help correct the problem. The support for this product is top-notch and far beyond what I expected.

We have not had to use Articulate 360 support much at all over the years. But when we have reached out they have been helpful in getting our issues resolved. There are also a lot of great resources in their online support forums, as well as throughout the internet as a whole, due to the large user base.

Their user communities are amazing. Employees answer questions very quickly and other users often answer them as well. For additional support, you can reach out to their IT support team. Support tickets are generally resolved within a day as well.
