Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Articulate 360

  • Priced annually per user at $1,749 for Teams and $1,449 for Personal, with no monthly option shown
  • The built-in LMS covers up to 300 active learners; larger audiences need the Reach Pro add-on
  • Learner analytics, API integrations and localisation are all paid add-ons
  • Collaboration features, including co-authoring and shared folders, require the Teams plan

Dundas BI

  • The published Embedded BI Package starts from about $4,738.70 USD per month billed annually for 8 core capacity
  • That figure reflects a limited time 35 percent promotional discount rather than list price
  • Licensing is by CPU core capacity rather than by user, so cost scales with server hardware
  • Dundas is now part of insightsoftware following acquisition
  • The page states that a pricing plan is worked out together with the vendor rather than published as a rate card
