Articulate 360Reviews of articulate.com

I can't begin say enough about Articulate, the software, the support and the community! I have been using Articulate since their suite of products for around 6 years now. We have worked with other authoring tools in the elearning ecosystem as our customers have needed, but our go-to tools of choice have been the Articulate suites, the migration to Storyline 1 and 2. And now...we have just taken the leap into Articulate 360 and am blown away!!! Thank you Articulate, our clients loooove what we do with your tools and our joint creativity!

People ask me all the time if I work for Articulate because I constantly rave about Storyline to anyone who will listen! No, I assure you; I don't get any kickbacks. I just love using Storyline. It's intuitive - and more importantly FUN - to use. I am continuously finding new things to like about it. The online community is second to none. I can always find what I'm looking for, and usually stumble upon things I didn't know I didn't know. Kudos to Articulate for keeping it fresh with Storyline 360! Keep up the good work.

I love Articulate Storyline. It's the tool with a perfect balance of a power, versatility, and ease of use. I've used it for about six years now. Before using Storyline, I tried several other tools, but this is the one I've stuck with since then. I love Storyline!

I have been very happy with Articulate 360 so far. The "Review" feature is amazing for sharing content with SME's, developers and stakeholders while collecting and sharing their feedback. The HTML5 publishing improvements and responsive design make deploying across multiple platforms a breeze.

With the new release almost 30 days old, I have to say that I was anxious to get access to the update so that I could incorporate some of the new features in my late 2016 course titles. As a beta tester for the Articulate 360 "suite", I learned quickly that the R+D team at Articulate made some great decisions about how their applications worked together, how their impact on the use of characters could continue to excite designers, and how their seamless approach to mobile learning would, well, blow their competition out of the water. They are, as they say, on a roll. I'm most excited about the new, super classy illustrated characters (with a definite medical bent). For me, it's all about the za-za (aka, "wow") factor - if it looks cool, then use it. The new illustrated characters, for example, introduce a whole new realm of possibilities that get rid of the potential Debbie Downers who "hate" cartoons and offer a great way to keep consistent characters in play over a range of courses - helping to brand the look and feel for an organization's eLearning output without having to spend a ton of time on photoshoots or finding just the right model for the job - just grab some background shots and add in the Articulate characters. It can't be more simple and more professional looking. Did I mention that the diversity is outstanding? It is. Someone is paying attention at Articulate. Throw in the new mobile publishing options and the other onscreen trigger options, including the new "dial" control, and you have endless possibilities - without all the Action Script mess. And, to top it off, and here's the big drum roll from me, I've kicked Captivate to the curb (ok, well, I'm doing it on 1/31/17 when my "contract" is up). I've had enough woes from my previous pals at Adobe and I am super excited about the integration of the previous "Studio" lineup from Articulate, so I can ditch Presenter, too. It's all seamless. And, you get Rise, too. If you haven't checked that out, you should. But that's another review.

My original review: Articulate's new 360 offering is a suite of products designed to help anyone who works in the process of creating e-learning. Their team has done an incredibly impressive job of developing this integrated solution that makes developing training, which can be an enormously complex process, as smooth and simple as possible for developers and subject matter experts at nearly any skill level. Well done, Articulate! :) My update after using it a bit longer: I especially love the Articulate Review tool that lets me painlessly and seamlessly upload courses for stakeholders to view and comment on. Going through project review cycles can really be a pain point - and a place where things can fall through the cracks or miscommunication can happen - and this tool takes away that pain. Other than that, I still love the fact that mobile output is gorgeous and as easy as can be, and that the Content Library is filled with images and templates I can really use. Yaaaaay Articulate 360!

Articulate creates products that solve problems we, the consumer, have. They don't push a "this is what you need" mentality on us. They find out what would make our jobs easier, and then they deliver. Don't we all wish every software company would do that? Storyline lets us get training to the field quickly. In a world where technology is changing at a fast pace, we need to be able to get learning content to our people as quickly as possible to stay ahead. With Storyline, we've created a host of solutions: soft-skills selling, CRM software training, scenarios on customer engagement, etc.

Articulate is an incredible tool for creating e-learning courses. I literally came in as a novice and was able to teach myself how to use it thanks to the tutorials they provided. After a few short months, I was outputting e-learning courses and surprised even myself. The tools are intuitive, and you don't have to be an expert designer to use them. I am really impressed with this program, and I use it for every course that I develop!
