Why teams choose it |
Drawbacks |
| Highly customisable visual design for on‑brand learning. | Not designed for highly complex software emulations |
| Easy for SMEs and designers to co‑create. | |
| Branching, analytics, and learner feedback via Chameleon Collect and Chameleon Analytics. | |
| Publish to SCORM or share a secure link in seconds. |
Note: Rise can publish xAPI packages, but does not offer the same level of custom statement control as Storyline.
Deeply customisable—powerful, but slower and more technical.
Adobe Captivate is a strong choice for organisations looking to incorporate VR and AR into their learning experiences. Great for simulations but can be complex and challenging to use.
