A great elearning author
tool, we now use this for many projects as
it means our clients can edit the content.
It doesn’t do ‘everything’ but what is does
it does well.
Rob Hubbard
Of course, I’m biased, but our new
products are more powerful and easier to use than ever.
Here’s a blog entry I wrote outlining some of my favorite features. It’s a great set of tools
that’s helping people around the world learn every
day. Gabe
Anderson
This is my favourite tool for rapid
design, particularly in it's mbetter integrated and more
versatile 09 version.

"still the easiest way to make SCORM-compliant (trackable)
eLearning courses with a beautiful interface. A bit
pricey for some (around 1k for the whole suite, which I
recommend), but worth it, for what you get."

"This is my favourite tool for rapid
design, although I would like Presenter, Engage and
Quizmaker to sit a little more comfortably together
aesthetically. It’s now working comfortably with Vista/
Office07, which is a relief."

"Along with it's big brother, Articulate
Presenter, Engage is rapidly becoming a key part of my
content development strategy. With Engage, I can quickly
produce good-looking Flash-based materials with embedded
media navigated using one of a set of pre-defined
interfaces. These interfaces include (among others) a
timeline, concentric rings, image hotspots, pyramids
with layers and FAQs.
Yes, you are limited to the interfaces available. But
they pretty much cover most situations. I use Engage
when I need to deliver something that looks good
and covers a small amount of content. As a component
part of a content strategy it's ideal."

Great tool for
PowerPoint conversions, especially for quick turnaround
compliance course creation.
Quizmaker - Just plain
works when you pair this with Articulate Presenter.

"To spice up PowerPoints
for delivery online - this is a nice tool in my arsenal
for publishing pre-existing online content. We are
keenly aware of the limitations of over-use, and try to
have these presentations as content support/reference
rather than the main thrust of my courses."

Moriarty

"Presenter:
I will rate this tool as the best tool for
developing rapid e-learning courses. I use this tool
to convert the PPT file to an SWF file, customize an
e-learning template of my choice, and publish the
course for LMS"

I
am sure that the e-learning professionals will use
this tool extensively in years to come. Without any
help from graphic designers and multimedia
programmers, I can include compelling learning

work with, a tool like Articulate is like a gift
