The RCAT (rapid content authoring tool) market continues to be healthy with nothing to slow it down – uh, except maybe one thing (more on that later).

It is worth the extra dollars to purchase a LMS that comes built in with an authoring tool. Actually, I see no real advantage for having a built-in authoring tool, other than it generates some more revenue for the vendor. But it is a rapid e-learning authoring tool stripped down, nothing more.
