Frequently Asked Questions

Guidethrough is a cloud-based SaaS application that enables you to create interactive, step-by-step Guidethrough tours, downloadable docx process training guides and downloadable pptx slideshow presentations for users of your web applications and websites – all without needing to write code.

The screen guidance enables your end users to learn while doing. This directly enables digital adoption by end users of enterprise applications.

A Guidethrough tour is a sequence of steps through your web application or website. A single Guidethrough can have any number of steps. Each Guidethrough tour guides your users through the sequence of steps for processes in your enterprise applications.

Absolutely!

This is a key benefit of Guidethrough.

Guidethrough’s Launcher can be used to provide any content – whether it is a document, file, image, video, e-learning, PDF or any other type of information format that is available via a URL – embedded directly within the application screens to which it is most useful, without end users needing to search for it.

This means that by using the Guidethrough Launcher you can also reuse any content that you may have (and no matter where the content is) without needing to reformat, republish or relocate it and make it available for your end users embedded within the application screens to which it is most useful.

Within minutes! You just need to install our Guidethrough Developer extension for your Chrome browser and you’re all set to create Guidethrough tours. We have built the Developer so that anyone can be creating Guidethroughs in minutes and without needing to write code.

No. Once you add Guidethrough’s JavaScript code snippet to your application or website, your users can then see the published Guidethroughs (web tours) and Player Launcher without installing the Chrome browser extension. In this way, without installing an extension, Guidethrough will work for your end users across modern browsers like Chrome, Safari, Firefox, IE etc.

In the case where you are using an enterprise web application (such as an ERP, CRM, HRMIS etc) where you don’t have access to the code to load the Guidethrough JavaScript snippet, then your users can use Guidethrough’s Player Chrome browser extension. By using the Player extension Guidethrough will work for your end users across any web application.

Guidethrough uses HTTPS protocol and all accounts (and associated data) are access controlled.

Guidethrough does not collect any user-entered text or information from within form fields in your application and any application data collected by Guidethrough is transmitted over SSL, encrypted both in transit and at rest.
