Storyline and Rise are both eLearning authoring tools created by Articulate, but they serve different purposes and have distinct features. The choice between Articulate Storyline and Rise depends on the specific needs and preferences of the eLearning project.
Articulate Storyline
Fully Customised
High level of customisation with comprehensive set of tools and features with the ability to synchronise text, images, video, animation, voiceover and interactions.

Custom eLearning with creativity and uniqueness that empowers design crafted with engaging and tailored learning experiences for the audience. Learners stay engaged watching, reading, listening and interacting as the information cannot be skipped.

We have all been a reluctant learner at some point in time. No time, no interest, no patience. At Lexlife Solutions our primary goal is to ensure everyone has a meaningful and effective learning experience, no matter how reluctant. Lexlife Solutions learning design uses the ideal balance of text, images, videos and animation, voice over and interactions to ensure that every style of learner is catered for, even the reluctant one. If scrolling and reading was effective learning, we could just hand out textbooks.
Did you know that we use Storyline to make voice overs, video, animation, images and text all interactive?
Even a reluctant learner is forced to read, watch and listen to every message your learning needs to deliver.
