Overview
When preparing to begin trial and demos, we recommend defining two primary sections within your environment. One specifically for trials and another for demos.
-
Trials
- The trial environment can be leveraged for user experience previews to prospects to test the platform and content. Trials can be customized based on prospects focus and needs. We recommend having both an ‘Active’ and ‘Inactive’ trial team to keep organized on active and closed-lost deals. Trials should contain full library access and featured playlists to ensure there is a variety of content available.
-
Demos
- The demo environment can be leveraged to create a content demo experience that allows your internal teams to talk through courses and launch experiences. Demos should contain full library access and featured playlists to ensure there is a variety of content available.
Your Access & Privileges
You will have one single ID to manage trails and demos. These ID’s will have full access and privileges to modify trials and add learners as needed.
