Test Drive DocRead Today

CloudShare LogoOur fully functioning DocRead 2007 and 2010 SharePoint 'Sandpit' environments hosted with CloudShare will allow you to get hands-on with DocRead without the need to install anything on your organization servers.

Within the sandpit, you can either follow our 4 Tutorials (each one will take you approx. 5 minutes to complete) by downloading and following the instructions within the relevant PDF below OR if you prefer and already know what you want to try with DocRead, you can go straight ahead and access the environment to try out the specific scenarios you have in mind.

To help get you started, we have created an environment for a fictitional company, Uniited Exports as if it were a real world organization but for the more experienced SharePoint customer, you can edit the site and documents as you wish to match your intended scenario.

That’s all there is to it!

Click one of the links below to access the Tutorial material.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CloudShare?

CloudShare is a company that offer a hosting service that allows you to easily (and quickly) get up and running with SharePoint.

For the DocRead trial, this means we can offer the ability for a customer to test DocRead in their own sandboxed environment meaning you don't need to rely on anyone in your own organization in order to test drive the product.

What if I have a CloudShare Account already? 

If you already have an account with CloudShare then this makes the process a little easier and also gives you the ability to extend your trial for as long as you need (beyond the 48 hours).

Will other people trialling DocRead see my tasks, documents and data? 

No. Once you begin your trial it's a completely isolated environment that's personal to you and those that you choose to share it with.

What happens after 48 hours? 

The free trial will end. You can see how long you have left in the trial by clicking on the 'My environments' tab in CloudShare. If you want to continue the trial, please purchase a subscription from CloudShare.

Can I access the trial directly through a browser.

Yes, once it's all set-up it will be like using SharePoint in your own organization. The entire trial is accessible from a supported browser.
