Alternatives to Rosetta Stone?

[Sahamamama]

If you have used Rosetta Stone (any language), what are its strengths and weaknesses? Have you successfully gained fluency (or at least made good progress) in your target language(s) through Rosetta Stone? Was the investment worth it?

 

Are there any alternatives to Rosetta Stone for French? :bigear:

Here is a recent long thread about its strengths and weaknesses. If I remember correctly, some alternatives are mentioned.
