Our team really like the Articulate RISE. It is way easier than Adobe Captivate. But there is one advantage that Captivate has was that we can use it offline. Is there a way to use RISE offline? If not, is there any plan in the future to implement offline feature?
I'm so happy to hear that you're enjoying Rise - our team is really proud of all the work done!
In regards to the offline use of Rise, you may want to take a look at some of the ideas and suggestions in this other forum discussion. As Adam says in that discussion "To author in Rise, you'll need to be online. But once your course is done, you can download it and it will run anywhere you put it."
Hope that helps clarify and if there are other features or ideas you have to share about Rise, please feel free to send along! The team is actively looking at the road map for Rise and in what ways we can meet the needs of customers.
I cant always be online to use rise travelling on train or airplane i want to edit create new elaerning modules so why isnt rise same as other products i.e storyline presenter
That is a sad reply. Does that mean you will never allow offline editing with
Does that mean you will never allow offline editing with Rise? Roger Vaughan has a great point, many of us travel and it is great to be productive when traveling. Offline is a great feature we are hoping will be considered.
Since Rise is browser based you can log into it from any computer. You'll just visit rise.articulate.com and log in with your Articulate ID. You'll want to make sure you're using a supported browser for authoring though (Chrome and Firefox are likely what you have on your PC and are supported).
I note you (or Adam) say, "once your course is done, you can download it and it will run anywhere you put it." which is exactly what we'd like to be able to do because many of our learners are in remote locations with bad internet service if any.
How can I DOWNLOAD a fully developed Rise course that can then run offline for learners?
Peek instructions were great, but now I need to know - can that downloaded and opened folder and contents now work on a device e.g. mobile phone? I've been trying and so far can't get it to work so I'm wondering if there's some way that I don't know about.
Rise courses are designed for online playback on mobile devices.
I'm not sure if anyone in the community can share specifics, but I did find at least one other forum discussion where a user was able to accomplish this on Android.
Is there any plan to make rise offline? A browser based application can still be used as offline if we install in a local server. It is difficult to upload confidential product data and images outside.
Hello Ayan! I completely understand. We don't have plans to offer Rise installations offline. Here's some information about the privacy of your content, however.
In the meantime, Storyline and Studio 360 both offer offline course building. And with Content Library featuring slide templates, you can speed up course development by modifying existing layouts to include your content. ☺️
We don't have plans to make Rise available for offline editing, but thanks for letting us know you have that need. If anything changes, we'll be sure you hear about it!
not everyone has access to fast and stable internet. So offline use allows you to edit when the internet is not feasible.
It can be upgraded to be used offline. Not making it usable offline is a choice.
Also make it possible to download the project file for use and importation. Why? No server is secure or infallible. You cannot guarantee that the rise project files won’t be hacked or lost under a major server failure. They happen. Allow a person to backup their project files.
storyline while a wonderful product takes much longer to create and edit projects. This is one reason people like rise.
finally, add text to speech and audio files to all module types. People who can’t read cannot use rise.
Hi, D K. Because Rise is a web-authoring tool, all of the editable content will stay online. All your Rise courses are stored in the rise.articulate.com site, and our Trust Center includes more detail on our storage, backups, and security.
In case of a disaster, we do practice automated, routine, and frequent data backup and recovery. We encrypt our data backups, and they are stored redundantly across three physically isolated and resource independent locations to ensure high availability.
Finally, we're working to add full screen reader support to Rise 360 so that a learner can have the entire course read to them. Stay tuned for that feature coming soon.
No company can guarantee their data. Stuff happens, it’s the reason I want my own backup.
not everyone has access to fast and stable internet which is a must for rise. Editing offline is necessary in my location a lot of the time. So basically I am paying for a bunch of apps I cannot use because the internet is not consistently reliable.
Until rise becomes available for offline use and I can make my own backups I will need to use another software solution.
Hi, we use SumTotal LMS and publish courses from Articulate Storyline and then our users download and run them offline in the SumTotal mobile app on their iPad. I know we can also publish Rise courses on SumTotal LMS, but can they be downloaded and run offline in the SumTotal Mobile app as well? Thanks.
This may have answered a question I have about a third-party app called Go.Learn. My client currently uses Docebo as their LMS and most of their courses were developed using Storyline 3. They've decided to use Docebo's Go.Learn app to allow learners to view their courses using their mobile devices and offline. I recently created a suite of courses for them using Rise and am having issues with these courses working in the Go.Learn app. Anything that is linked to a website or normally opens in a new browser window doesn't display. We have reached out to Docebo and they said this is not their issue and to reach out to Articulate. With that said, is there a solution or a workaround?
Hi there, Pauline. Are the Rise 360 courses uploaded to Docebo as LMS packages? Is the problem that the Rise courses always open in a new browser window?
To be clear, we only support viewing Rise 360 courses directly on supported browsers. I would love to find out more about the difference in behavior between the Storyline and Rise courses in that app, however!
Yes, they are uploaded as an LMS Package. I also thought that because Rise acts like a website and opens links and resources in a new browser window that that was the issue. I was thinking that the Go.Learn app was wrapping it in such a way that is all stays within the app BUT then why would links in a Storyline course open in a separate browser?

Also, could I log in to my Articulate account to create a RISE course from any PC? Or does it have to be the PC I've had Articulate 360 loaded on to?

Hi Di,
Sure thing! I had recorded a quick Peek about this just last week!
Let me know if you need more help.

Yes, that helps and I've put in a request for extra features in Rise.
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Di van Santen
Happy to help Di!
Looks like your email signature came through when you replied via email! No worries, this Peek video will show you how to remove it.

This is helpful. Would it be technically possible to make Rise available for offline editing in the same way that Google Docs are?
Hey, Victoria!

Hello, Jeremy!
Rise 360 supports mobile viewing in these mobile browsers, but not in third party apps.
Safari in Apple iOS 10 or later
Google Chrome in Apple iOS 10 or later
Google Chrome in Android OS 4.4 or later
