Conversion quality is disputable, but that's a common problem. It's something that Articulate has been really good at for quite a long time. As far as I'm concerned, Captivate 8 didn't have any decent 'import from PowerPoint' feature, for one. For instance, Captivate 9 is a totally different story than ver. On the other hand, Storyline outruns Adobe in quizzing functionality, it offers more questions types and options.īesides, it's important to understand which version we are talking about. Looks like it's just a copy of the PowerPoint effects. Captivate’s got some great animations and effects, Articulate is pretty basic from this perspective. Captivate requires a certain learning curve, even specified training might be an option here. Storyline is surprisingly easy to use, I mean my three-year-old grandson could probably use it. That's why many of us choose to keep both for various tasks. Let's face it: Articulate Storyline and Adobe Captivate are just conceptually different.
I'd like to look at this issue from another angle, though. I agree being simple and 'just like Microsoft PowerPoint' is a flimsy argument. I am using Captivate 9 as a subscription, and seem to be using it much more than Storyline, although the more Advanced use of custom actions can be somewhat daunting at first.
ADOBE CAPTIVATE 8 VS 9 PDF
PDF is a native file format in the Windows 10 browser and I would anticipate other browsers will also make this a native file format, doing away with the Acrobat reader entirely, just as the Flash Player will no longer be supported - ActiveX and plugins are just too much of a security risk, and the sooner we make the jump to xAPI and let go of SCORM the better, but Captivate's SCORM support is equal to Storyline for I believe they both use the Rustici SCORM Engine. Yes, the learning curve for Captivate is longer, and there are some features within Storyline 2 that I really like, people fail to see the advantages of interactive PDF, particularly in its ability to use 3D objects in authoring tools such as Sim Labs Composer and output to PDF. Adobe has seen the proverbial "writing on the wall" in terms of HTML5 and the eventual demise of Flash, this is why Adobe has created so many complimentary HTML5-based products while still maintaining Air and Flash CC Pro.
While I have both, I have to agree with Mark on all counts.
