Trial and registration (web app)¶
Concept — Trying Herzog CAB free for 30 days: requesting a trial version, limits of the trial, the way to a subscription and self-registration
Two ways into the trial¶
| Way | For whom |
|---|---|
| Request a trial version from Herzog: Herzog enables the module Herzog CAB trial version | The usual case, for prospective customers and for existing customers. Herzog creates a customer account or uses your existing one and invites you by email, see Customer account and invitation. The trial version applies for 30 days to the whole account, on the computer and in the browser. |
| Self-registration via Try for free on the sign-in page | Only if Herzog has enabled self-registration; otherwise the button is missing. Creates a new account with you as administrator. The account gets the module Herzog CAB Web Trial (30 days, browser only). |
Requesting a trial version
If there is no Try for free button on the sign-in page, request the trial version from Herzog: from your Herzog contact person or via the addresses under Contacting support.
Self-registration¶
Only if enabled
This section only applies if Herzog has enabled self-registration. Otherwise, request the trial version from Herzog.
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Company | Name of your company — becomes the name of the account. |
| Name | Your name. |
| Email address | Your sign-in name; the confirmation email is sent to this address. |
| Country | Location of the company. |
| Password / Repeat password | At least 10 characters. |

After that:
- You receive a welcome email with a confirmation link. Until you open it, the header shows Confirm e-mail; the web app can nevertheless be used immediately.
- The link leads to the page Confirm e-mail (The e-mail address has been confirmed.) and from there to the application. If no email arrived, send it again under Subscription and orders.
- Your account has the module Herzog CAB Web Trial with one seat for 30 days. During the trial only one user is possible. You invite further users after subscribing in the licence portal.
Limit on registrations
At most three registrations per day are possible from one internet address.

- Quantity limit: Some data types are limited, see the table below.
- Remaining term: The chip Trial: n days left in the header leads to Subscription and orders.
