Show HN: WordPress Product Demos SaaS
wpdemo.cloud
wpdemo.cloud
1. Client clicks on "Try our Demo"
2. A stripped version of the entire product is uniquely genereated only for that customer (we will take their email first etc)
3. They try the demo which has no collision with another potential lead who may have clicked on "Try demo" as well
4. The unique demo site is destroyed automatically after a certain number of hours/days
Is this what you are offering ? How would you setup the environment ? I am not familiar with Docker at all so any details are appreciated. Will you create a separate WP codebase and mysql db for each demo ? Do we have access to restrict things like file uploads, admin capabilities etc ?
The workflow looks as follows:
You login at wpdemo.cloud, create a template, customize it as you wish (install your product etc.), click 'Update Template' button.
Now you can either directly redirect your customers to the demo link or ping our API from your site to request a demo.
And yes, there are no collisions. Each demo request gets a fresh install of your template and each demo instance has its own codebase and database.
Unused demos are also garbage collected.
Again yes, you have access to file uploads, admin capabilities etc. You can basically have root access to the WP installation, since it runs inside a docker container. Let me know if you still have questions.
You can test it for free, go to wpdemo.cloud and check it out. Feedback is highly appreciated!
