Geetesh,
How does this compare with Breeze ?
And do you have any idea about the price.
I was planning to cover it in my blog and need inputs from actual users.
Thanks.
When they started, Articulate and Breeze competed in the same areas – so much water has flowed under the bridge since then. I see great times ahead for Breeze as it gets more into webconferencing and integration with existing Macromedia technologies like FlashPaper and Captivate. Add to that the Macromedia-Adobe merger, and you might see PDF integrating with this as well.
Articulate on the other hand is progressing in a different direction – their strengths include interactivity and e-learning and I think they provide a better solution than Breeze for that market. Add to that, Articulate offers independent PowerPoint to Flash conversion on the desktop – also their Flash conversion is more faithful to the PowerPoint originals.
As you can see, comparing Articulate and Breeze is like comparing oranges and apples.
