Managing and Tracking Your First POC
A Proof of Concept (POC) prototype is an environment that showcases your software product to a prospective customer.
Using CloudShare sales enablement features, you not only can create a comprehensive, standalone POC, you can also:
control precisely when a prospect can use the POC;
invite and manage your POC prospects, keeping track of your open invitations; and
know exactly when a prospect actually starts your POC, how much time they commit to it, and also how they engage with it.
From the moment a POC invitation is sent, and through POC completion by a prospect, you can use built-in CloudShare analytics to measure its effectiveness and improve it.
CloudShare also provides a Salesforce integration package, enabling sales engineers to invite POC end users directly from their Salesforce accounts.
