Articulate 360

Avantages

La suite est complète entre :- Storyline 360 (le logiciel historique qui permet de créer des modules e-learning très personnalisés)- Rise 360 (application web qui permet de créer rapidement et facilment des modules full responsive)- Review 360 (application web qui facilite grandement la relecture et les échanges entre les différents membres du projet)- Replay 360 (logiciel qui permet simplement et rapidement de faire du montage vidéo basique).

Inconvénients

Le modèle économique ! C'est un abonnement annuel, pas de possibilité de prendre pour le temps d'un projet client (quelques mois uniquement). Il y a le produit Storyline 3 qui est un achat unique, mais il n'y a pas tous les éléments de la suite Articulate 360 et Storyline 3 n'a pas toutes les mises à jour de Storyline 360.

Pourquoi passer à Articulate 360

Avantages

Grande offre d'éléments graphiquesLogiciel très complet avec la possibilité d'intégrer du contenu Java Script

Inconvénients

Parfois pas très intuitifTemps de chargement un peu long

Avantages

L'outil peut paraitre rassurant de prime abord car il ressemble beaucoup à power point. D'ailleurs il est possible d'intégrer directement un ppt, pour servir de base de travail.Si on maitrise bien le logiciel, il est possible de faire quasiment tout. Il y énormément d'options

Inconvénients

C'est un logiciel vieillissant. L'ergonomie est assez lourde. Il est intuitif pour les fonctionnalité basique, mais absolument pas intuitif pour le reste. La prise en main est très compliquée, et impossible de s'y mettre seul, sans formation.

Avantages

Articulate est un très bon logiciel qui permet de créer rapidement des vidéos tutoriels pour diffuser des formations e-learning rapidement.

Inconvénients

Plusieurs points faibles pour Articulate: première élement c'est le coût, la solution est très coûteuse à l'année pour une petite entreprise. Second point: l'interface est un peu lourd et traduit le fait que le logiciel est un peu vieillissant et manque de mise à jour.

Avantages

Even non-developers can unleash their creativity to create e-learning content.
The interface is similar to MS PowerPoint, making it easy and quick for anyone to learn.
By using the software, users can develop logical thinking through the trigger wizard.

Inconvénients

It is not compatible with MacBooks; a virtual machine is required to use it on a Mac.
The speed of the created content is not very fast and feels somewhat heavy.
As a Korean, I find that support for the Korean language is lacking in areas such as text input, font compatibility, and TTS provision.

Avantages

I like that Articulate 360 provides access to both Articulate Storyline and Rise, which enables me to develop eLearning content to suit a wide range of budgets.

Inconvénients

It is difficult to think of any serious negatives that have cropped up during my use of Articulate 360. If I was to ask for one improvement I think I'd ask for reverse transitions to be added as a feature, so that when one of my learners clicks back on a screen, the animation reflects that they are moving backwards through the course.

Avantages

Articulate is easy to use and solced our simple lms problems.

Inconvénients

Bugs and crashing when using it. Very slow in large courses.

Avantages

It makes it really easy to create your own e-learning modules. The premade interactive elements like quizzes, card sorts etc make it really easy to turn your content into interactive training

Inconvénients

The pre-made course templates are hard to find and hard to navigate to see what is available. If you want to build of an existing course it is quite hard to find some that you need as there isnt an easy search function and the categories are hard to follow

Avantages

The incorporation of Rise, a rapid and simple content creation tool has enabled me to create almost instant courses with little effort, which frees me up to do more sophisticated interactions in Storyline and incorporate them into the training courses.

Inconvénients

Rise does not have image descriptors, making it impossible to match images in courses without guessing the search term and hunting through pages of images. It can also be extremely slow to e.g. save block templates or move between courses.

Avantages

Love all of its application under 360. Storyline is still my favorite to use.

Inconvénients

Which for a simpler way to sync the usage of all applications under 360.

Avantages

Users benefit from an extensive content library with millions of assets, robust collaboration features through Review 360, and seamless LMS compatibility with SCORM and xAPI exports. Frequent updates, cloud-based access, and a supportive community further enhance its value, making it the go-to platform for creating engaging, professional e-learning experiences.

Inconvénients

The pricing is fairly expensive, particularly for individuals. Also its reliance on Windows for Storyline 360 limits functionality for Mac users without virtualization software.

Avantages

The functionality is great - lots of creative options that you can use to appeal to all learner types. Basic features are easy to use with a good interface. I like the wide range of templates which helps to make the creation of a course quicker. As many people are using the software, there is a lot of help available outside of articulate - forums, videos etc. The courses we create are successfully used across all employee levels. I like that one can include additional resources and chats to create a community for a course.

Inconvénients

Sometimes the number of options and the content library can be overwhelming for new users. It is very expensive for self-employed e-learning producers.

Avantages

Articulate is easy to learn and has excellent learning tools.

Inconvénients

I would of liked a more comprehensive overview of the differences between Rise, Story, etc.

Avantages

How creative you can get. It is like PowerPoint presentation x100.

Inconvénients

Nothing. It was very easy to understand.

Avantages

Articulate 360 suite has all of the tools I need to create the best e-learning possible and then some. It's intuitive to figure things out and takes very little time for a new user to learn.

One feature I recently discovered and now LOVE, is the translation function. One simple button allows me to print out a word document to send out for translation. Once the translator updates the word document, I just upload it back into the training and within minutes, the entire course content is translated; all on-screen text, notes text, buttons, everything. It places the text right where it needs to be with all the same font settings. Even better is the text to speech functionality allows you to insert audio in many languages and dialects with closed captioning. Great for companies that need training in multiple languages.

Inconvénients

I really cannot think of anything that I dislike about this software.

Pourquoi passer à Articulate 360

Avantages

Articulate Storyline is the one we use and like the most. It's easy to start producing e-learning content thanks to the familiarity the interface has in regards to PowerPoint. One can easily find and edit anything they might need.

Inconvénients

There are some things that need to be researched to get done on software and that they get discussed on Articulate's forum. I wish they added new features often, with more updates. For example, there's no specific "timer" option on evaluations. This could easily be added, but it has to be programmed. That's the way I've gotten around to having that done, at least.

Avantages

The learning curve on the software is very shallow. You can get p and running with it very quickly. However, the depth of advanced features means you can really make some powerful interactions and resources without being a 'coder'.

Inconvénients

As the software is very easy to use many people believe it will make them a great eLearning developer. It will, but that will come with experience.

Pourquoi passer à Articulate 360

Avantages

Overall features are great for designing e-learning courses. Overall user friendly. Ability to publish in multiple ways including SCORM, PPT, etc. Streamlines the creation of elearning courses

Inconvénients

While overall its easy to user, there are some features that are missing from Storyline and require you to build using java script. Thus in order to be a master of Storyline, you also have to be a master of java script. If the software can do something, it should be able to be built using the software, not going somewhere else.

Pourquoi passer à Articulate 360

Avantages

We use these for self-paced learning as well as guiding classes in-person. The courses allow you to track completion as well.

Inconvénients

It can be a bit of a recipe in the sense that they start to look the same. Options are somewhat limited in terms of what you can actually do.

Avantages

Ease of deployment. Templated lessons. Quiz customization.

Inconvénients

Tracking user engagement is lacking. A/B testing built in would be beneficial.

Avantages

Articulate 360 has covered the e-learning management through stunning tools starting from rapid development to quality accurate software . It literally made the history of e-learning

Inconvénients

There have been some problems on bugs management in the past ,but now the fixing process is ok

Alternatives envisagées 

Avantages

As a package Articulate 360 does the lot. From speedy course development via Rise 360 through to creating more complex projects with that added wow factor via SL 360. In the beginning 360 asked a lot of me and the learning curve can be quite steep. Nowadays i am asking the questions and 360 typically delivers. As with most tools there are many ways of completing the same task and 360 does this well.

Inconvénients

SL has seen a lack of investment from my POV whereas Rise has gone from strength to strength allowing the layman to rapidly development content. Don't make it too easy else i may be out of a job ;)

Avantages

One stop shop with easy-to-use tool like Rise to sophisticated development tool like Storyline.

Inconvénients

I wish Storyline worked on the Apple platform.

Avantages

Layers is one of the most powerful features of Storyline. An entire slide of content can be placed on another layer and manipulated with triggers. The ability to give objects multiple states helps in creating engaging content. The option to add a variety of sliders without programming is a nice bonus. Adding animation effects should come naturally to anyone with PowerPoint experience.

Inconvénients

The interface that displays slides as tiles gets very confusing on a large project. The built-in player gets in the way and must be removed for custom projects. Creating master slides like in PowerPoint makes it difficult to inherit objects throughout the course. There is no access to individual files in a published course, so if one image changes you have to edit the course.

Avantages

1) Drag and drop feature
2) Simple and intuitive style
3) Faster development speed
4) Responsiveness
5) Compliance with all the LMS
6) Easy review cycle

Inconvénients

There is little scope of adding customization in rise as its the easiest of all tools whereas in storyline, you can do wonders but it takes a lot of time and effort to do that. Editable features like color and fonts are not dynamic. One thing which I felt is missing is the integration with audio when using RISE. Overall it is a great platform for all your learning needs.
