30 Day Free Trial
Hello, Looking for some advice - one of our product (check.it) works as a freemium with two paid offerings. We want to bring it more in line with the 30 Day Free Trail that our other product...
- Sep 21, 2023
We took the Free Trial approach rather than the Freemium approach because we wanted our customers to experience the full capabilities of our offer (https://aka.ms/qumulo) rather than a downscaled version.
The way we implemented this does not require payment, so payment has not been a blocker.
One drawback to how we implemented it was to make the length of the trial 7 days rather than 30 days, which means we don't get the visibility that comes with the nice green ribbon in Marketplace. If compatible with your solution, I would recommend meeting the requirements of free trials as described here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/partner-center/marketplace/plans-pricing#free-trials.#MarketplaceChampions #Sponsored

Good question - have you seen it act as a blocker with the other app?

Yeah we have seen it as a blocker - mainly due to the end users having to pass it up the chain for payment before they can access the free trial.

Great question!
