In an in-depth evaluation covering accessibility, back-end user experience, and usability, the Ohio State University’s Office of Distance Education and eLearning’s Authoring Tool Comparison Report recommends Lectora over Articulate Storyline and Adobe Captivate

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla.--()--Trivantis’ flagship authoring tool Lectora has been ranked first by the Associated Educational Technologist of the Ohio State University's Office of Distance and eLearning as part of a review and comparison of Articulate Storyline, Lectora Inspire, and Adobe Captivate. According to the author of the Authoring Tool Comparison Project, “Designers using Lectora have a greater ability to create freely and add more complexity to a project without diminishing the quality.”

The report focuses heavily on the importance of creating accessible eLearning content, meaning that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the training material. Lectora supports the Section 508 guidelines as well as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0 AA), ensuring both accessibility and compliance with applicable laws. The OSU report notes the involvement of the Digital Accessibility Center, who also recommends Lectora due to its reputation of having the strongest capabilities for creating accessible content.

Trivantis further impressed the evaluators with the responsive and open nature of the Business Solutions team, referencing the benefit of having a direct line of communication in place to receive support. “We strive to partner with our clients to ensure their feedback is actively incorporated into improving our products and services. We’re thrilled to have worked with the OSU team to identify ways to create engaging, interactive, and accessible training,” says Daryl Fleary, VP Business Solutions.

Ultimately, the report’s author notes that “after a complete investigation of Storyline, Lectora and Captivate, I am comfortable recommending Lectora Inspire as the tool I believe our team would benefit the most from moving forward. With its focus on accessibility and combined upside of back-end and user experience, I believe Lectora is the most complete tool that has the highest potential to produce quality content that aligns with ODEE’s standards and values of excellence.”
