Storyline 360 freezing?
I am in my second month using 360 and I am pretty disappointed with the functionality. It reminds me of working in ArcGIS doing extensive mapping but it is even worse than that. The unexplained freezing and crashing, the slow response time when trying to play a slide and the complicated and inconsistent response of the triggers is really frustrated. This is expensive software and I would expect more from it.
The slow response time has been on every project that I have worked on. I have worked with help on several other issues that I have had and have not been impressed with the type of support that is available.
Hi Heather,
I have experienced a lot of freezing on my very large projects over the years, but I have to say now that I don't really have that issue any more with those same projects. I have no idea why. Saving can be a problem and I often have to save to a new file name to save a very large project. I don't find the slide load time to be slow...in fact I am amazed at how quickly a slide loads in some of my projects which are sometimes running hundreds of lines of code. Are you talking about when previewing or when running a preview or when it has been published? Previewing the total project can take a very long time with very big projects - I tend to just try previewing a slide wherever possible (and it isn't always possible to do that of course).
re: Technical support...I have been one of the first to raise my frustrations with bugs etc...but I do find technical support to be very good. Some bugs still have not been fixed which is a frustration but that is more to do with priorities set beyond technical support. But I find when I raise a ticket I get a very rapid and detailed and supportive response from the technical team - always.
