Welcome
Welcome to Try.Hyland, a website dedicated to providing hands-on access to live software.
Here, you can quickly learn about Hyland offerings and see how they can be used to address various business challenges.
The software configurations found on this website are only examples and do not reflect every potential option for how a solution could be configured.
If you would like to see a custom demonstration based on your organization's need, please contact your account manager, or click the Contact Me button found throughout the site.
We're also always in the process of adding new content.
Register for a Hyland ID
While Try.Hyland is publicly visible, most of the site does require a login in order to take full advantage of its resources. Registering for a login is easy however. Simply follow the steps below.
1) Navigate to https://id.hyland.com/signin/register.
2) Fill out the web form with your information and click register. You will receive an email notification with steps on how to proceed.
Navigation
Try.Hyland is a simple website to use. The home page contains tiles which represent a Hyland offering. To learn more about the offering, simply click on the tile.
The Solutions menu at the top of the page can also be used to locate items based on an industry, product, or product category.
Additionally, users can leverage the search bar to locate items containing a particular word or phrase.
*Please note that the search bar is located at the top of the page when you're not on the home page.*
Lastly, users can leverage the search facets on the left side of the screen to filter search results. Multiple filters can be applied for advanced filtering.
Solutions
In the context of Try.Hyland, a solution can represent a module, product, or sample configuration that potentially includes both. While some solutions found on the site can be comprehensive and incorporate multiple users as part of a larger business process, others may be simple and solve a clearly defined business challenge.
Solution Pages
The solution page provides a high-level overview of what the solution is, the business challenges that it solves, and some of the key features that it offers.
There are also action buttons on the left side of the page allow you to interact with the solution in various ways.
Solution Actions
Actions allow you to interact with the solution in various ways. While some solutions may have additional actions, the vast majority of solutions offer the following actions:
- Launch Demo Lab
- Contact Me
- Learn More
- View Premium Training
Launch Demo Lab
Mostof the solutions found on Try.Hyland come in the form of a lab.
Labs are pre-configured environments that are created each time a user clicks the Launch Demo Lab button, and each lab comes with a step-by-step walkthrough of the solution.
Labs are created dynamically, and it may take a minute or two for the lab to start (just like when you turn on your computer).
Because of this, you may notice instances where the first occurrence of an action (i.e. opening a document, submitting a form, etc.) may take slightly longer than subsequent actions.
Please note that this is a result of the environment itself and not the underlying software.
*Labs are temporary environments and are not intended to be used for activities that require long-term access (such as configuring a solution). If you have a request to support such needs, please contact your account manager.*
If you have dual monitors or would like to split the instruction panel from the lab window, you can do so by clicking the "Split Windows" option from the lab menu.
Please feel free to leave your feedback on a lab after you're finished. We value your opinion and use your ideas to further improve the experience for all users.
*If your lab is not finished but you would like to still provide feedback, you can do so by ending the lab from the lab menu. Simply click "End" and then either select "End my lab and mark it as complete" or "Cancel my lab."
Contact Me
Have additional questions about the solution or want to talk to an expert about it? Click the Contact Me button.
Learn More
The Learn More button takes you to the related Community page for the solution. While Try.Hyland is great for quickly learning about an offering, Hyland Community is better suited for finding technical documentation and interacting with product experts.
**Hyland Community is only available to current customers**
View Premium Training
The View Premium Training button directs you to Training.Hyland.com where training material related to the solution is available. Premium Training includes detailed information on how to configure the solution.
Solution Activation
There are a few instances on the site when a solution must be "activated."
This process enables your account to login to a live environment (as opposed to the lab environments), and in many cases will also create a batch of sample documents for you to interact with while you leverage the environment.
Activation is a simple process and only needs to occur once for each demo environment that requires it.
To activate a solution, simply click on the Activate button and enter your Hyland ID when prompted. You will receive a confirmation prompt if the activation was successful.
If the activation was successful you will now see a list of action buttons that allow you to access the solution.
Solution Map
The Solution Map allows users to see which content they have access to as well as the type of content (lab, content download, or both) that can be found on each page.
Each solution name is also a link that takes users directly to the selected page. Please note that the solution map is only available to logged in users.
Hyland Exchange
The Hyland Exchange is our curated showcase of downloadable configurations and examples.
These pre-built files can help you springboard a project that you have or help you explore ways to solve different business and technical needs that your organization has. Some of the things you can find on the Hyland Exchange include our “concept solutions” and example integrations to third party products.
In addition to the solution export, each solution also contains screen shots, an import guide (for configurations that require environment-specific details), and a list of prerequisites.
Announcements
Users can also subscribe to Try.Hyland Announcements which are sent sent each time a new solution or feature is added to the site. Please note that announcements are only to logged in users.
Simply click the subscribe button to start receiving future notifications. Please note that announcements are only available to users that are logged in.
