The key to the TestDrive suite of services is Runaware’s online software demonstration environment. Hosted in Runaware’s data centers in North America and Europe, your applications are made available online through a secure web-based environment. Runaware ensures redundancy so your software demos are always available and able to handle the level of traffic you need.
Runaware’s technology allows multiple users to be connected to your application in their own virtual environment and interact with the application and sample data. Each time the user leaves their TestDrive session, all changes are discarded and the environment is reset for the next user. Users cannot save, print or upload their own data outside of the TestDrive environment, allowing them to experience your software without giving them the full benefit of owning the software without purchase. The TestDrive environment can work for most industries including real estate, accounting & finance, education, medical, engineering, desktop publishing, graphic design and many more.
No invasive installation is needed for the TestDrive environment to work, once your prospect installs the Citrix Java or ActiveX plug-in ; your application will run in their browser window as if it were installed on their PC or laptop. If your application is part of a suite of applications or includes add-ons, the TestDrive environment can showcase the collaboration between multiple applications, allowing your prospect to experience the full benefit of your software.
Whether your applications already include tutorials or self-guided tours, or you would like Runaware to develop them for you, guiding your prospects through their online demo has been shown to significantly increase the effectiveness of their experience. TestDrive includes these learning tools as an integral part of the demonstration environment. In conjunction with customer profiling done in the lead capture process, the user environment can be customized with specific tutorials or competitive messaging.
With customized skins in TestDrive, your branding is extended into the online demo environment. Designed to match your marketing materials, you decide the color scheme, logo placement and disclaimers. Your skin can include customized buttons based on the options you would like to give your prospects and can include Buy Now, Download Trial, Live Chat, Click to Call, Refer a Friend or links to your web site, product page or sales support.
