Guided Onboarding Flow for New Rootly Users

Guided Onboarding Flow for New Rootly Users

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Guided Onboarding Flow for New Rootly Users

Adopting a new tool into an organization full of people can be daunting! It’s important to us that we make the experience of onboarding Rootly as easy as possible. We’re always here to guide and support our customers through using Rootly, and now we’re making the onboarding process even smoother with an in-product onboarding flow that walks new users through setting up Rootly with guided steps, explainer videos, and a pre-built Slack tutorial. Coupled with our new user interface, this makes for a clean and simple first introduction to Rootly.

Here’s what new users will see when they first set up Rootly!
