# Why CIPP Doesn't Do (live) Demos

We don’t offer live demos or trials as CIPP operates as a Community-Led Growth and Product-Led Growth company. This approach allows us to keep the cost and contract terms as low as possible. Comparable products in the market can cost thousands of dollars per month or lock you into long-term contracts (one to three years), often with less functionality.&#x20;

If you’d like to see CIPP in action, you have several options:&#x20;

* Check out our Storylane demos on <https://docs.cipp.app/demos/showcases> and <https://docs.cipp.app/demos/tutorials>
* Set it up yourself – CIPP is completely free to self-host, and you can follow our detailed [Setting Up CIPP](/setup/self-hosting-guide.md) Guide. The cost to run a self-hosted version is roughly $0.10 per day.&#x20;
* Try our hosted version – Visit [cipp.app/pricing](https://cipp.app/pricing/) to get a subscription to CIPP. We only offer month-to-month subscription options. There are no long-term commitments, and you can cancel anytime. This is regarded as “Sponsorship”.&#x20;
* Watch training sessions – Our YouTube channel features public CIPP and SIP sessions where we train users on M365 and CIPP usage: <https://youtube.com/KelvinTegelaar>&#x20;
* Work with a ProServe partner – These partners offer assistance with setup, deployment, and other services for a fee. Find more information at [Professional Onboarding Services](/setup/resources/professional-onboarding-services.md)

Additionally, you can join our active community of over 9,000 MSPs and CIPP users on Discord at [discord.gg/cyberdrain](https://discord.gg/cyberdrain). We encourage you to explore these options to see how CIPP fits your needs.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cipp.app/msp-adoption-toolkit/implementing-cipp/why-cipp-doesnt-do-demos.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
