What is an Interactive Demo?

An interactive demo is a self-guided walkthrough of a software that gives prospects a hands-on experience of the product. 

Think of it more like a test drive you’d go on before purchasing a car - you get to see the car and its functionalities in action and decide it’s worthy of a purchase.  But it’s also not like a trial. Interactive demos are much easier to figure out because the next steps have already been laid out for the prospect. 

Unlike traditional static demos or one-way product demo videos, interactive demos provide a personalized, immersive experience and help to prove your product’s value faster.
