### Most mentioned pros

- Articulate 360 makes it incredibly easy to create professional, engaging eLearning courses using a wide variety of media. Whether you’re building interactive lessons, scenario-based training, or quick microlearning modules, the platform gives you intuitive tools to add videos, audio, animations, quizzes, and drag-and-drop interactions without needing advanced technical skills.
- We use articulate 360 products to develop all of our education across our healthcare system. Whether we are creating an online course or uploading videos, using rise for a quick turnaround project, there’s always a perfect solution with one of the products offered in articulate 360 to accomplish what we need to develop.
- The suite provides a comprehensive set of tools that allows my instructional design team to efficiently meet varied production needs. While there are some standard learning curves with the advanced features, the platform's continued updates, like the recent improvements to Rise customization, demonstrate Articulate's commitment to solving user pain points.

### Most mentioned cons

- it crashes often, especially when a file has more than 300+ slides. When working on this file, it says that storyline detected a bug but I don’t know what the bug is so I end up saving the file, closing the file, reopening it, and continue working on it.
- One limitation is that complex interactions in Storyline 360 can take time to build, and collaboration across multiple courses can sometimes be less seamless than desired.
- The glitching between some of the Articukate apps and Review360 can lead to frustration, not knowing if there are truly issues within the course itself or a bug in Review360.

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.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### 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.

#### Reasons for switching to Articulate 360

Articulate is very easy to use, and I appreciate the updates and changes they have made over the years. The product truly improves monthly and all of the changes they have made thus far have made my job easier and my modules professional.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5

#### Pros

The ease of use. I use Storyline to create my module scenarios. Publishing to Review and then placing into Rise is a breeze. Within Storyline the use of AI and triggers is easy, and Rise blocks and customization make my modules consistent. The branding is Rise is easy to set up and maintain. I also use the AI text to speech and the AI image generator. Both are easy to use and customize.

#### Cons

I don't have any cons. I've been using Articulate for about 13 years and love using it. Their customer support is top notch, and I've learned a LOT from their webinars and eLearning Heroes community.

#### Reasons for switching to Articulate 360

Lectora is very cumbersome and difficult to create triggers and slide interactions. Since I've been using Articulate for 13 years, I was able to get my company to purchase Articulate and we've never looked back.

A newer user to Articulate 360 and I am beyond thrilled with the capability, the support and the resources. The entire Articulate community is a huge selling point to continue using the suite of services as well as expanding knowledge base to understand and improve learning outcomes and design efforts.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Articulate 360 is an essential product used in my work and has improved outcomes exponentially. This software is extensive and includes a great deal of information and suite of capabilities needed to improve learning outcomes.

#### Cons

A little nuanced of feedback, but sometimes in Storyline when selecting options the first click doesn’t seem to resonate with the system. I find having to include a text entry or a hotspot for example requires a second click for it to be activated.

#### Reasons for switching to Articulate 360

License expired and the ability to enhance learning and ensure engagement opportunities and LMS capabilities.

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.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### 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,

#### Reasons for switching to Articulate 360

We needed a program that could make responsive training.

Rise 360 has been a great tool to create uniform, compelling digital learning experiences. I can see the power of Storyline but it is hampered by the interface. Though admittedly I need more time and experience using that particular app to create interactives.

#### Ratings breakdown

Building blocks allow me to quickly and effectively input course content in a uniform style and tone.

#### Cons

The interface for Storyline is in desperate need of a refresh. It looks like windows 98 PowerPoint while the rest of the suite is modern and more “Apple-like”

#### Reasons for choosing Articulate 360

Interface, pricing and appearance of published products

#### Reasons for switching to Articulate 360

The tools are easy to learn and fast to use. Rise helps me build clean, structured courses without extra design work. Storyline gives me the control I need for simulations and interactive practice. Review keeps feedback organized so updates stay simple. The suite works together in a smooth flow that saves time.

#### Cons

Rise limits layout control when I build technical content. Storyline takes more time to update when courses grow. Media compression in Rise lowers the quality of detailed images and videos.

Overall, my experience with Articulate 360 has been highly positive and productive.

While there are some standard learning curves with the advanced features, the platform's continued updates, like the recent improvements to Rise customization, demonstrate Articulate's commitment to solving user pain points. For professionals who require the flexibility to create advanced, engaging learning content that genuinely stands out, Articulate 360 is the most powerful and reliable option available today.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

What I like most about Articulate 360 is the relentless commitment to continuous feature growth. The ecosystem allows for the quick and effective creation of modern, engaging learning content. Storyline 360 remains my favorite tool and the core reason for my high recommendation. After 15 years in the training industry, Storyline is the most powerful authoring tool I have used. I love nothing more than "overengineering" things with triggers, variables, states and layers. Having complete creative control to build truly custom, complex content like detailed branching scenarios and realistic simulations sets it leaps and bound apart from your basic powerpoint.

#### Cons

Historically, the inability to fully customize the look and feel of Rise 360 courses was a drawback, often requiring a reliance on Storyline for greater design freedom. However, the introduction of custom blocks has solved this constraint, allowing us to maintain brand consistency and design flexibility without sacrificing the speed of Rise.

#### Pros

Articulate 360, especially Rise, is so intuitive and makes creating engaging eLearnings easy to handle. Rise makes creating eLearnings fast and effective, while Articulate Storyline makes custom courses possible. If you can imagine a scenario or interaction, most likely Storyline can make it happen. Articulate is also always making improvements to its creation process, whether through AI capabilities or the ability to enhance accessibility for all learners.

#### Cons

While Rise is changing a lot and becoming more customizable (especially with custom blocks), there are still aspects (like text over images for flip cards) that would be beneficial. There are a couple of things that I have seen mention or asked about in the Articulate community that have not been addressed in road maps, despite users asking about them years prior.

I enjoy how flexible it is, whether I’m building custom interactions in Storyline or quick, polished modules in Rise, it gives me the tools to make learning feel dynamic and accessible for students.

#### Cons

What I like least about Articulate 360 is that some of its features can feel limited when trying to customize beyond the built-in templates. While it’s great for quick development, making highly tailored designs or advanced interactions sometimes requires extra workarounds. I also wish collaboration and version control were smoother, especially when multiple team members are editing or reviewing the same project.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Articulate 360 as a complete suite provides all the tools I need for content creation in varying ways from full on elearning content, to micro learning content. Tools for reviewing content are easy to use, and help reviews clearly experience content and review at point of need. As a creator feedback is easy to assess at the point needed without needing to find where that content is. Features of Articulate whether Storyline or RISE is vast and should meet every creation scenario you come across. The new Articulate AI assistant has proved very useful.

#### Cons

The one key area is RISE. This is a fantastic product for creating content quickly, and producing engaging micro learning content. However RISE seems to have suffered from lack of updates regarding content design options. Whilst it is block based, you have little design options to create a more eye catching product. There are plugins now available for RISE thar resolves this issue.

Easy and intuitive to use. In Rise, I like the new custom block in and AI assistant. I like that I can create custom images in Canva and drop them into Rise to help my courses have a customized and unique feel

I wish that in Rise, you could change settings globally. For example, all dark background for the entire course, instead by selecting block by block

I love it. Use it every day. I think it makes my job easier and better. Learning how to author in storyline was an important level-up in my career 10 or so years ago.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Storyline is the best in the business—no comparison. I love how you can make it be as much or as little as you want it to be. From a simple point and click course to a complicated game, Storyline is the best.

#### Cons

The push for the AI features. We do not currently have access, and it seems like those of use who do not are mostly ignored.
