Overall Satisfaction with Articulate 360

Storyline is a very powerful tool to create e-learning courses. With a very short learning curve, since it is similar to the powerpoint interface, you´ll be publishing your own courses in no time. And with the advanced possibilities of triggers and variables, you can add extra levels of interactivity. And now the new AI assistant makes creating courses, generating your own images and write, rewrite texts even faster. It is our ´go to´ tool for about 90% of our courses.

Pros

  • Use triggers to add actions and interactivity
  • Group slides in scenes to keep overview
  • Use the timeline to time when items or media appear or dissappear from view

Cons

  • Editing media can be a bit more elaborate
  • Managing masterslides could be easier
  • I would like more trigger options to interact with media
  • Faster production times
  • Employees really engage with the content
  • We save budget by converting classical training to e-learning
Ths combination of Storyline/Rise and the Review tool makes it teally easy for customers to give very specific feedback, even without their own licence. It gives us the opportunity to quickly react to remarks, make changes, and circle back to our customers. This brings down the time we need to get the final approvement for new xontent.
To be honest, the AI assistent is mainly a time saver. You can use other AI tools to summarize texts, create genAI images, or build quizes based on the original content.
But having it inside of Rise or Storyline, makes it a lot faster and easier than going back and forth between tools.
Articulate 360 is very easy to use. New users will recognize the interface because it is very similar to the Office365 inteface. But it it a bit of a pity that you have to choose between Rise and Storyline for mobile or desktop courses. A storyline course on a mobile device will not be very user friendly.
we used to build all of our courses in Captivate. But a few years ago, we made the switch to Storyline after a good due dilligence. And we never looked back. With all of the possibilities within the Articulate 360 ecosystem, you will not need any other solutions. so look no further.

Articulate 360 is very helpful in creating storytelling based courses. With built in persona and things like conversation blocks, it is pretty fast and easy to build courses from scratch.
On the other hand, creating courses in multiple languages can be a bit of a hassle. The export/import function is perfect to send to the your translation agency, but it takes some time to make changes to layout and textboxes once the import is done.
