Accessibility
Articulate 360 versus dominKnow | ONE: Accessibility Head to Head
This session explores one of the most critical aspects of modern eLearning design: Accessibility.
Through an open discussion, our content authors discuss how Articulate 360 and dominKnow | ONE support accessible learning content creation. Accessibility in eLearning isn’t just a nice-to-have – it’s both a legal requirement and a responsibility that we have as designers to our learners. The most engaging course in the world won’t matter if learners are unable to access it.
Collaborative Authoring and Review
Articulate 360 versus dominKnow | ONE: Collaboration Head to Head
Something that often causes a great deal of frustration amongst our content development teams is Collaboration – both for authors and reviewers. During this session our panel discuss how dominKnow | ONE and Articulate 360 streamline feedback, reduce confusion and help teams collaborate to get courses finalised faster.
A strong authoring tool should make teamwork easier, not harder. It should support multiple people working together in real time or at least streamline how content is shared and updated. This doesn’t just apply to author collaboration of course, because review collaboration is often the part of the process that can slow projects down the most.
Responsive Design
Articulate 360 versus dominKnow | ONE: Responsive Design Head to Head
The workforce of today expect eLearning to work wherever they are — on a laptop at their desk, on a tablet in the field, or on a phone in their pocket. If a course only looks good on one screen size, the experience breaks down, and we risk losing engagement altogether.
Responsive design is about making sure the learning adapts gracefully, no matter what device is used to access it, so no one is stuck pinching, zooming, or fighting with the interface. Our panel considers what true responsive design looks like and how these two content authoring tools, dominKnow | ONE and Articulate 360, tackle this from both an author and reviewer perspective.
Ease of Authoring

Ease of Authoring Head to Head
This session covers the topic of Ease of Authoring, exploring how both dominKnow | ONE and Articulate 360 assist authors in creating and managing global eLearning projects. While both tools offer powerful content authoring features, the learning curve and day-to-day user experience differ significantly. For a beginner, ‘ease’ might mean getting a course up and running in thirty minutes. For a professional team, ‘ease’ might mean having sophisticated functionality that makes creating complex, versatile learning content straightforward.
This session starts with the “Blank Page” challenge looking at how the two tools compare in terms of the initial learning curve and the time required to be “up and running”. The panel go on to discuss how more experienced authors balance the speed of a template with potential design restrictions, as well as the advantages of having pre-built elements like tab sets and accordions available “out of the box”.
