We want to hear from you! Articulate is exploring ways to improve interactivity in Rise 360.

The Rise 360 product team is currently developing a plan to build new interactivity features. But we need your insights and perspectives to ensure that we're crafting the best Rise 360 experience for our customers. That's why we're launching a new research study!

What will the study entail?

  • You'll provide your feedback on an early prototype that contains the new interactivity features we're exploring.
  • We have room for just one participant per session. This ensures that every participant has ample opportunity to share their unique insights and experiences.
  • The session will take approximately 45 minutes.
  • Participation is completely voluntary and all information provided will be kept confidential. Your responses will only be used for research purposes and won't be shared with any third parties.

If you're interested in participating please sign up here. If you’re selected to participate, we'll send a follow up email to schedule a time with you.

Thank you for considering this invitation. Your contribution to our research efforts is greatly appreciated, and we look forward to hearing from you soon!

Best regards,

Takashi Kuwahara

    I have been asking for 360 image tour slides to have more features and functionalities for a long time but there does not seem to be much activity on the 360 image feature updating. The simple request to allow us to use custom hotspots surely has to be a basic function? I create 360 tours as a hobby for over 15 years and I design and create animated hotspots and skin elements so  I have thousands of icons etc and I would like to be able to utilize them in 360 images in Storyline to be more aligned to our companies branding. Currently there is no way to edit the icon hover state colors and limited to either the 30 default or only those in the Content Library so it is very restrictive

  • Is there a different way that we can register to participate? My company, who has multiple business units using Rise, has Google Docs blocked as a site and so we can't sign up without requesting an exception which only run for a month or 3. It sounds like it can take awhile to hear back on our requests. Could you send me a registration form via email?

      Hi Shelley, yes - if you're interested in being a part of our UX research studies in general, please feel free to use the link available in this ELH post.  This should take you to an online registration form.  Thank you! 

  • Storyline needs a template that allows users to create a digital workbook similarly to Canva.  It needs to flip like a book, allow users to make it editable, add links, videos, and audio. 

  • I am disappointed with the product in only one way, and if I'm honest it's an embarrassment in 2024 that this problem even exists in the system. There are no Disabled characters in the scenarios and it has been humiliating to explain to colleagues I need to use an 'understudy' character while I'm building and time consuming to  then manually replace all the images in the exported file, recompress it before uploading it. 

    The disparity between this and other features is incredible. I appreciate accessibility requires additional programming but this is something which could have been quickly resolved by making some additions to the library to make it more inclusive, given that as an English Major by qualification with no formal IT training, I could find a fix, it's shocking that your teams have not improved on this.

    Before Articulate adds new features, it would be good to correct old mistakes and add missing features that have been requested for years. Example: Links in the body text to other lessons of a course (instead of buttons).
