Introduction

The intent of this procedure is to ensure D-Tools Cloud customers can properly prepare for implementation and training sessions. The items outlined below are the basic requirements to successfully implement D-Tools Cloud.

General:

The implementation and training calls are conducted by a member of the Cloud Customer Success Team. Andriy, Leigh Ann, and Tiffany have extensive knowledge of D-Tools Cloud and combined share hundreds of hours of experience in implementing and training new and existing Cloud customers.

  1. Meetings are conducted virtually using Microsoft Teams.

  2. The calls are generally scheduled in 1-hour increments unless special accommodations are requested/agreed upon prior.

  3. Before scheduling, please make sure you have an active Cloud subscription and can access your Cloud account.

  4. If you previously had a Cloud trial, this instance will be converted into the paid subscription after purchase, and you'll be able to log in with the same user credentials or utilize the "Forgot your password?" option on the Cloud login page to recover those credentials.

  5. It's best to connect using a desktop or a laptop vs. iPads or other mobile devices when it comes time to initiate the screen share.

  6. Before scheduling, please make sure the machine you're joining from has a working microphone and speakers to avoid technical difficulties.

  7. A 24-hour advance notice is appreciated for any potential meeting cancellations or reschedules.
