How to trial Schoolbox
Trialling Schoolbox is an important step in the assessment process as it provides an opportunity to get hands-on and experience all the functionality available.
We have three options for helping you trial Schoolbox:
- Sandbox
- Trial
- Install (recommended)
Which trial is best for me? (Sandbox, Trial, Install)
Why should I choose a sandbox?
- Free to play.
- Want to compare functionality with other systems.
- Prefer a system pre-configured and integrated ready to go with demo data.
Note: Request a sandbox, please contact us. |
Why should I choose a trial?
- Prefer to experience the system integrated on-site with your own data, student information system and LDAP service.
- Want to trial Schoolbox in one or two classes, choosing to include additional administrative staff and a couple of technically savvy teachers who don’t require training to further assess.
- Prefer to customise the framework to your specific needs without pre-loaded demo data. This customisation can then be rolled into your install if you choose to continue using Schoolbox after the trial.
- Happy with a limited 3 month trial and a small fee for setup. This fee is deducted from the annual license fee if you proceed..
- Understand that the trial will not have access to all additional modules.
- Understand that the benefits of our full installation project and some of the deployment items (such as backups, user synchronisation scripts) are not included in the trial (see table below).
