Ease of use:
Rocket Languages is a systematic program with emphasis on teaching your chosen language fast. Their software interface is based on audio, text, and with languages, they have games as well. Rosetta Stone's interface is more graphical and shows much focus on visuals to get you learning the language.
Languages:
Between Rocket Languages vs Rosetta Stone, when it comes to the number of languages that each program teach, then Rosetta Stone have much great range of languages with around 30. Rocket Languages have only 6 languages, however interestingly this includes American Sign Language, which Rosetta Stone does not include. Rocket Languages have just released Rocket Italian as well to complement their range.
Features:
Both have use audio and visual aids to get you learning the language as quick as possible, both come with a money back guarantee and both are offer a online version and a hard copy version. I should mention that both are also good for beginner levels right through to advance. Note however, that as you progress in the language with Rosetta Stone you will have to pay for the more advanced levels, where as with Rocket Languages all levels are inclusive in the one off fee, which is considerably cheaper than the first level of Rosetta Stone.
Overall:
Well both packages are excellent language learning programs, that teach you how basic words, greetings, phrases, reading, writing and verbal comprehension. Both also have their own benefit, however if you were looking for a more cost effective method, then Rocket Languages, may be the best to choose as it's more interactive and also offers you a free day by day course, before you buy.
