But I've already got co browsing working. It really doesn't take that much to make it work.... I mean when I was developing the co browsing feature I think it was around a week to 10 days of work to get multiple clients set up but really the architecture I chose initially made that extension pretty easy.
And then of course there's things you can add on top of that like having a real Time chat which I've already got.
And the next thing I'm going to add is just indicating where the people's curses are so when multiple people are driving it, everyone knows where the others are.
Also it wouldn't be hard to add a flag to indicate that only one person is the leader driver and the other people are sort of just observing.
Really the co browsing thing is not that hard to make work I've already got it happening.
But you seem to know about this so I mean please keep going with more examples or discussion about this I find that really interesting and valuable so if you have anything more to say please keep going. thank you very much.
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoI mean one thing I would expect that I would want co-browsing in is: 1. some sort of remote education app 2. some sort of remote debugging, testing app 3. onboarding in another app. Those apps will have more things essential to them then co-browsing. Co-browsing is a really nice to have, maybe even killer feature to make such an app stand out from their competition. But in the end I would think it was still a feature of the app. Onboarding in another app, I guess they would just do that as needed with someone. Really a sort of educational feature. Let's say for example you are in Denmark and you have to use an ESDH solution for your government job (electronic case documentation handling solution [case in Denmark is sag]), they gave you some classes you went and you don't understand some of the things you need to do, or two you were sick for those classes and the company doesn't want to do a single class for you. Then co-browsing is pretty great, but even in that case where they probably don't care to have to full control over experience you should probably try to market directly to them because unlikely they will see your stuff on HN and think THAT IS WHAT WE NEED! As an anecdote of people not seeing the point of what something is and having to market directly to them and convince them, I was once working on a multiple media generating product - generate your website pdf email help files etc. media from single source - reuse documents between media easily. At one demo for a sales person and a technical guy I showed how you could create a branding experience in one media, and also stuff like contact details for your company, and it was automatically inherited across the different media etc. without needing to do anything new for each media and these guys were incapable of understanding the purpose of this or why anyone would find it at all useful. What I'm saying is the co-browsing is cool, but to sell it you are probably going to have to make real specific use cases for people that hammer into their heads why they should want this because what is obvious to you just will not be obvious to everybody.
- graderjs 5y agoThanks allot for this really appreciate... This is totally right .. But even more so because I simply inked it's cool and useful but I don't have any concrete ideas of exactly what for. So your examples of education and, and bug reporting are really useful. As well as the rest of your post. Thanks!
- graderjs 5y agoBut thinking more about this.... That's why I'm selling licenses to the tech for companies to use in their products. I also sell customisation, but that's mostly specific to the code on the x-frame that needs to change, rather than integration heavy of focused on the buyer's product.... But I still think I need to craft more specific markets to target... As you say. I just don't know how to do that. All my current sales have come from organic inbound leads so far.
