64-Bit Storyline 360
Is there a way to access a 64-bit version of Storyline 360? I noticed what I have installed through the 360 suite is only 32-bit and I'm finding that I may be reaching a ceiling with performance whi...
Hi Everyone!
Great news! I'm happy to share that we just released Storyline 360 (version 3.82.31354.0), which includes a new 64-bit version of Storyline 360! Harness the processing power in modern computers with 64-bit Storyline 360. Large, media-rich courses benefit from increased stability and faster performance!
To use 64-bit Storyline 360, please update your Articulate 360 desktop app, then click the Install button next to the Storyline 360 app with the 64-bit and beta labels. The Install button will change to an Open button when the installation is complete.
This was highly requested, so we hope it serves you in your course creation! If you run into any snags, don't hesitate to contact our team in a support case.
The silence here from Articulate representatives is deafening.
Here we are, some 5 years since this issue was first raised and we are still no further forward, still completely in the dark in regard to Articulate's plan. I half joke that we will be using 128 bit systems by the time we see a 64 bit version and we will have to start all over again.
Given the significant amounts of money that we pay for either the standalone version or for Articulate 360, it is unbelievable that we are still exactly where we were 5 years ago and with no solution in sight. I am in the process of onboarding 7 members of my team to Articulate 360 from their current perpetual Storyline 3 licences. This will cost in the region of $10,500 pa on top of the $3000 pa we currently pay for our Instructional Designers. This is in addition to the 50+ seats we already pay for globally. That is not an insignificant amount of money for any business. And I am forever asking myself what do we actually get in return for that?
Like others here, I am seriously considering drawing up a proposal to move our organisation to an alternative solution. It may involve a significant up front cost and will, undoubtedly, be a nightmare to transition, but what alternative do we have? Throw money at something that fails to keep up with the most basic of requirements?
I sincerely hope I am proven wrong, but I fear the worst.
