- concretecode 17y agoShort answer: Yes. Throw me into a fresh install propagated with dummy data for a fake company. Make starting the demo a one click operation. When getting people to try things, you really need as few barriers to entry as possible. What I'm suggesting comes from the same school of thought that motivates Wikipedia to allow edits without signing in, or StackOverflow to allow questions without an associated account. See Twiddla's sandbox http://www.twiddla.com/ http://www.twiddla.com/ for an example of what I mean.
- mahmud 17y agoThrow me into a fresh install propagated with dummy data for a fake company. You wont be able to see how the field names you have provided correspond with things on the screen. I tried this with our user accounts' "home" areas, and people are not as interested in seeing someone else login area. Seeing your name in small font "[Hello, mahmud] [help] [logout]" etc, makes a lot of difference. My dummy data populator actually takes stuff from your geo location and is very use specific.
- webwright 17y ago+1 - Demo or screencast with 1 click with dummy data. Note: I know how hard this is and RescueTime should do this too (we're working on it).
