Team capabilities in Articulate Review?
Hi all
Just wondering if this is in the works, and will be possible anytime soon...and if anyone else out there shares the same desire to see these features?
The Articulate 360 Teams concept makes lots of sense, and Articulate Review is a terrific step forward in simplifying the project development process...now it would be great if you could marry the two together, and extend the team account concept/capability to Articulate Review.
The Teams idea is predicated on the idea that multiple folks may be involved on particular projects, and as such, quick & convenient access to all review comments by relevant team members is major convenience . With this in mind, I love to see the following:
- As part of the process of posting a project for review, we should be able to select other team members who will then have immediate access (instead of having to email a link to each person, in addition to the client).
- Any team member associated with the project should receive the emails indicating new comments posted to Review for that project. This prevents the current potential for bottlenecks on a project, whereby the account owner is the only one to receive these update emails. If they are away (or miss the email)progress can easily come to a halt, as other team members are unaware that new comments are posted, unless they are continuously checking.
- Also, as I've seen posted here previously, the ability to organize projects in Review into folders would be a Godsend. With numerous projects, each involving potentially dozens of modules, the site gets enormously cluttered. Scrolling thru all of the projects can be brutal, as there is currently no means to sort these projects (which would also be a nice feature...sort by date, alphabetically, etc.)
- Lastly, as I mentioned this in a previous post, the ability to archive projects would also greatly improve the organizational aspect of the site, enabling us to keep the site cleaned up, without have to completely delete projects that we may need to refer to later.
Thanks for a great product, and continuously looking to improve...hopefully these suggestions are helpful.
Cheers, Dave
Hi, everyone!
I have some great news to share!
We’ve just released an update for Review 360 which includes cool new features:
New: Create shared team folders in Review 360 to organize your content, assign permissions, and invite collaborators. You can even allow multiple authors to publish new versions of a course to the same Review 360 project.
And because Review 360 is a web app, there's nothing to install! New features and fixes are available immediately.
Please let us know if you have any questions by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
Have a great day!

Having to go back to the original publisher of the course to then post to review is killing us slowly - I now spend 50% of my day working with my now remote employees asking "who was the last person to publish this course" as when the wrong person publishes it doesn't go to the version with the comments and creates a new version. Had to pay more for a teams upgrade we didn't want in order to get features that don't exist with no payment plan options - please prioritize these teams features or stop forcing us to pay teams prices.

Articulate - it would be great if you could implement this feature. We are also having issues with this lack of functionality that would totally make sense for Teams.

Glad to have seen this before converting to Teams.
Can someone explain how a Teams subscription helps me with two people working on the same Storyline project?
From my reading, this is what I understand. Am I incorrect?
- No integration/benefits for Review 360, aside from increased storage.
- Team members are all siloed. Two members working on the same project will have to maintain separate review processes or share logins?
Looking at the promotional materials for Teams, are my understandings correct? (https://community.articulate.com/articles/10-ways-to-collaborate-on-e-learning-projects-and-manage-your-team)

Shared Team Slides in Storyline 360
Marginally useful in the context of no network support for .story projects. -
Collaborative Authoring in Rise 360
N/A to Storyline users -
Shared Block Templates in Rise 360
N/A -
Project Reviews in Review 360
What am I missing? Project reviews are available on Individual plans and Teams doesn't provide any additional functionality, beyond storage space. -
Consolidated Billing Management
Yes, would be nice to manage with one account. Seems important for billing (minutes per year), but not project management (hours per day). -
Easy User Management
Ditto. -
Group Admins
Ditto -
Manage Team Slides and Block Templates
Great for templates, nothing to help day-to-day edits? -
Transfer Content
Again, marginally useful because there is no network support.
- Single Sign-On (in development)
No comment.
Thanks again for all of the community feedback on this.

Seriously, the Team Review Site feature request is critical for teams on a team license. We recently had a team member go out on 2 months of unexpected medical leave, and we could not see any of his courses out for review. Is there any update on when we will be able to see everyone's courses, add feedback, etc?
- ShannonConnorCommunity Member
Thank you, Ashley. But what about the improvements to Articulate Review that are badly needed?
- EmilioLaraCommunity Member
So, almost 3 years and we still can't share the 360 review files within the TEAM plan?
- cynthiaLyonsCommunity Member
This is truly unacceptable. What good is having a very expensive Team license, if the team can't store and share their work in a central repository? I can't tell you how many times a team member has left, and all his/her work has gone with them. This is a show stopper. I'd rather go a year without any new features in SL 360 whilst you work to make this happen. Thinking you don't have any competition in this space is a really bad strategy. First of all, the trend in eLearning is video and many folks in the ID world are going to Camtasia or Adobe to fill this need.
Please, please give us an ETA as to when this feature will be in the product.

I was just thinking this morning as I read yet another Articulate Review email notification and searched for whichever slide it related to in a course with hundreds of comments, "Gee, I wonder if Review will EVER be updated." I decided it won't be. At least not with the features we've requested for years. Here they are, AGAIN:
Include the slide number on email notifications
Include a link from the email notification to the specific slide on AR.
In AR, allow the reviewer to click the thumbnail image in Feedback view and be taken to the correct slide in Review mode.

Bumping for a Q3 2023 update.
Hi Dave. Really well thought out feedback...thanks so much for sharing. 😊
Improving collaboration and organization with Articulate Review is definitely under discussion! We'll be sure to update you with new features.
I'd love to hear what other community folks think here, too!
