For most of you it is probably the first interaction you have with our software. As studies have shown you can really improve the conversion rate of your <a title=\"The Creately Customer Guarantee\" href=\"https:\/\/stage.creately.com\/blog\/customer\/creately-customer-guarantee\/\" target=\"_blank\">potential customers<\/a> by having a good demo. As a Creately user you may have tested the application and its features via our demo mode before registering. So we went ahead and made it even more exciting to try Creately.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Improvements for a Great User Experience<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>We have been testing the demo <a title=\"User Centered Design With Behavioral Marketing\" href=\"https:\/\/stage.creately.com\/blog\/marketing\/user-centered-design-marketing\/\" target=\"_blank\">user experience<\/a> in <a title=\"Benefits of Real-Time Collaboration\" href=\"https:\/\/stage.creately.com\/blog\/features\/benefits-real-time-collaboration\/\" target=\"_blank\">real-time<\/a> to make sure our users get the most out of it. To start with all of us &#8220;Experienced the problem&#8221; by going through the &#8220;Try Creately&#8221; experience to really get to grips with the issues.<\/p>\n<p>In this release which we pushed on 1st of April (this is no joke :-)),\u00a0 most of the features in demo user flow and online application are covered. \u00a0You can see how it has improved according to the experience and feedback.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Hassle free rating and feedback<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can now rate us and send feedback without any hassle with improved in app widget. This flow has streamlined in a way, that it will prompt only once for you to rate or send feedback. \u00a0Previously the widget was prompted whenever you exit the editor or not rated the app. We had a few requests to make this change and I&#8217;m sure it will make lots of users happy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Connect directly to the editor<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Connect directly to the diagram editor and start drawing sooner! Remember the loading page, which asked you to install\/check the Flash version when you try to access the editor? We have removed the middle man out of the flow here. You can easily go to the editor right after you login to the app and create your awesome ideas.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Demo mode improvements<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a new user you may have had issues signing up before this release. Obviously that doesn&#8217;t help you or us! We have changed the sign up flow for Creately to optimize it so it&#8217;s easier and more robust. We have also polished the loading of demo diagrams and messages throughout the demo mode.<\/p>\n<p>With these improvements both Demo users and our registered customers can enjoy a streamlined user experience with Creately application. The benefits are more to come with our ongoing optimization process.
