I've been using Storyline 360 for about 6 months now and I started looking at the other products Articulate offers, like Studio 360. Am I right if I say that this product is used when you already have a PPT and you want to transform it into an e-learning without having much to do? Why else would people use it exactly?
Studio is a plugin for Powerpoint which allows you to build your content within Powerpoint but does not have the states, layers, triggers and variables that Storyline has. If you are already using Storyline I am not sure that Studio is needed.
Studio is the predecessor to Storyline. With Storyline and Rise in Articulate 360, most people don't use it anymore.
Here's where is still valuable:
Engage is still nice if all you need is a simple interaction and nothing else.
Even you don't use the course authoring, you get Content Library with the templates and characters. I use those quite a bit for quick graphics that I need to create in Rise.
If you already have some existing PPT content and don't need to do much to it, you may find it easier to just publish with Studio than to import into Storyline.
Could you tell me if Articulate is working on an upgraded version of Studio '13? Can we expect the release of Studio '20 or will Studio be definitely replaced (which would be sad) by Storyline and Articulate 360?
We're committed to supporting Studio '13, but we haven't made any decisions about developing a new perpetual version of Studio.
Our first priority is delivering a continuous stream of new features and content to Articulate 360, as the vast majority of our customers are using Articulate 360. Using Articulate 360, you'll always get access to the most up-to-date version of Studio.
We know some folks are unable to switch to subscription plans or cloud apps, so if there's anything we can do to help you make the case for Articulate 360 – let us know! We're happy to help. 😀

Tom, I hated posting that, I will always have a soft spot for Studio!

Me, too.
