Building a case for Storyline: Seeking your help, experience and examples!
Hi Georg,
I think you listed most of the advantages, from our side, there are not really comparable products, Rise is super simple and easy to learn, but also very limited, that unfortunately means all Rise courses look very similar, and if you need to develop more than 5 courses, it gets boring really fast. On the other hand, Storyline is super powerful and you can do pretty much anything with it. Also the mobile aspect, we had a client - a huge corporation, that used Captivate, because it was responsive, and Storyline was not, after a few months they gathered statistics and only 0.5% (I am not making this up) of their users used LMS on a device that is not a computer or tablet, meaning they went through a lot of pain to create responsiveness for 0.5% of users, and to be honest the experience was not that good either. So they switched to Storyline and are not coming back. I added this example, because that is usually the selling point behind Rise, but if you consider that you can just ask your users to flip you phone horizontally, you realize that you no longer care so much about the "responsiveness" and then the Storyline course is really unbeatable. We are template and course company, not sure if they can be useful for you case, but you can see our examples here:

Hi FasterCourse,
your real-world example really puts the mobile aspect into perspective. I'll be sure to incorporate the topic of responsiveness when making my case for Storyline. The examples you shared look intriguing – I'll be sure to check them out. Thank you for your answer.
