    Not many. V is a product that has similar capabilities but nothing to the full extent of building courses like Storyline does.

    The user interface is so similar to PowerPoint that it makes it easy to learn how to use the product. Adobe Captivate is ok, but the user interface is challenging to navigate for new users. Adobe Captivate also has an issue right now where they have new features in the "New" …

    Articulate 360 is more helpful to use from Captivate because it's more widely used. If you are going to work with any vendors or cross share working files, it's far more likely you'll work with people using Articulate 360. The other products we use complement Articulate 360.

    Some of the features work better in the other programs and are easier to use. For example, in Camtasia you can layer way more things such as imagery, text, recordings, etc. I actually love Camtasia way more than I like Replay. Replay could actually learn a LOT from Camtasia and …

    The Articulate 360 suite is hands down more powerful and easier to use than anything I've used in the past - I've been using Articulate products for the last 12 years with no desire to switch!

    Articulate 360 is so much more user friendly than Captivate. Its interface looking like PowerPoint made it so easy to learn. Overall, all Articulate products are very intuitive.

    The winning factor for Articulate 360 Rise was the ease of use and compatibility with Mac. I like the other 2, but iSpring requires a Windows-based computer and Captivate is pricier. Some other members of my organization use Articulate 360 Storyline, but I choose not to. It's …

    Chose Articulate 360
    There is no comparison in my book. Adobe Captivate served its purpose while we were using it but it's much clunkier and more difficult to use and learn. I had way more issues with that than I have ever had with Articulate 360.

    Chose Articulate 360
    We only had the program for a couple months, but the overall ease of use with Articulate is why we stuck with it.

    Chose Articulate 360
    Adobe Captivate was frustrating to use. The formatting is not customizable and it feels very limited. Some people compare it to Rise, but it feels like Storyline with limited functions. It does not look as polished as Rise when published and, in my experience, the fonts that …
