Best authoring tool

I started by using Captivate and was not happy with the results. I found that the training I created and articulate looks more professional and was much easier to author.

Functionality

Pros:

Articulate has a suite of products that will serve any training needs. For a quick training with interactive elements, RISE is what you will need. For a more complex robust training, STORYLINE is best suited. Assets are robust and very numerous.

Cons:

The price point is a little high for an individual license. That being said, if that is the only drawback, it is very well worth the price.

Reasons for switching to Articulate 360

I found that the training I created in captivate Did not have the look I was looking for. Joos was counterintuitive and I found that the assets were not as robust.

Still my favorite authoring tool - powerful, modern & easy to get ideas/suplort

I chose Storyline as our primary authoring tool at my previous company. The templates and straightforward approach to creating interactivity with layers with trigger was really a joy to develop with.

Pros:

My favorite feature of storyline is the fact that it only been around 6-8 years. All of the examples, just-in-time support and troubleshooting you search for online are applicable to the current version (360) and can be implemented. Their online community is best in class.

Cons:

As a freelancer, when work is light in for my elearning business (I also work FT and do webdev work) - the subscription price Of Storyline 360 is too much. I wish I could pay for a month only.

Rise meets our needs

We use Rise and Review. We moved to Rise from Lectora because we needed to update to responsive training per state rules, So far we have been loving the development process and finding ways to work with the system to create new looks and layouts with the tools we have. Review is pretty good - my staff often get confused/unhappy that comments aren’t attached to specific things but rather give a screen shot *e.g., a word is wrong and you have to hunt for it vs. having it “flagged” like it would in MS Word.

Pros:

Courses are easy and quick to build and accessibility is built into most of the Rise blocks, which along with responsiveness is a requirement for our sponsors. Interface is clean and easy to navigate and create a professional looking training with little design or coding knowledge.

Cons:

Rise blocks are pretty limited in terms of formatting image sizes and the text settings. I was excited about that new blocks came out in Rise but they aren’t responsive, which is disappointing because at first glance I thought “wow I can really use these with some of my content!” I did play with them for custom dividers, so that was fun,
