Articulate Just Gets It! 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.

Frustrating and annoying - I don't enjoy using this This software is frustrating to navigate and annoying to animate with. It's very annoying that it does not work on mac either. It's extremely flimsy and things like the timeline are just so awkward to scroll, zoom in and out of, find what I need, delete things etc. It is very similar to windows power point, which is too clunky and slow to have more advanced animation and design like this, and I think it should be more similar to actual video edit/animate/design software like premier pro than powerpoint. Needs an overhaul. Having it blacklit instead of bright white would be a good idea too. Overall very annoying to use.

Had potential, but in practice is disappointing Poorly coded, poorly optimized, buggy, and a blatant microsoft product ripoff with 10x the bugs. Saving your file takes over a minute, sometimes much longer. This is on a high end video editing PC. I've genuinely never seen software with save times like this. In this day and age to have software that works this poorly is entirely unacceptable. Especially for the price they're trying to justify here. I would recommend to look elsewhere. Don't waste your money. They desperately need a larger team to sort out the bugs and sluggishness of the software.

Solid products, even better community. Articulate does a good job at providing intuitive, easy-to-use eLearning-related software that is great for beginners, but still provides value to those with more advanced skills. While for a time they seemed to be falling a bit behind the competition, they have recently picked-up their game again by providing new modernized offerings and have started moving toward a subscription-based payment model -- I say started because currently it's not nearly as flexible as I'd like it to be, but at least they are moving in the right direction. I think the most powerful aspect of Articulate is the highly engaged user community that they have developed. They do an amazing job of engaging and supporting users in their community, and consistently provide great content and challenges to keep those users learning and developing their skills.

Well-rounded software package Articulate has really stepped up their game with the new 360 launch. The Articulate Review service is brilliant and has greatly reduced the amount of annoying tasks we have to go through to review Storyline files internally. Rise is an excellent way to quickly and easily build e-learning projects, while Storyline remains a strong, much more complex partner. The content library is full of great stuff that can easily be used in projects.
