Enian Software Demo

Enian Quick Start Tips

You'll see three rows of tabs on the main screen. In general, you'll choose to view something by something else, choosing tabs from upper left to lower right. Once done, selections in the tree on the left drive what is shown on the right. More than one selection (shift-click or ctrl-click) is often supported.
Right-click to see available actions for tree nodes and table rows.
Tool tips are used extensively. Hover your mouse pointer over a field, button or tab to see a pop-up with more detail. If the tip disappears too soon, move off, move back, and slowly continue the hover motion over the component to keep the tool tip visible indefinitely. Tool tips that start with a word or short phrase, plus a colon, are taken directly from the ITIL® glossaries (with permission).

Public Database

Any data you enter will become public information, accessible by anyone on the Internet. (It is not pushed it out there, but technically, it can be pulled or modified by anybody.) Please use mock names, numbers, etc.

Periodic Overwrites

Periodically, the entire database is overwritten from scratch with a new set of test data in order to "clean house". Other users may also modify data you have entered. Thus, it is possible that data you enter today will be gone tomorrow. Obviously, this is not a flaw in the application, but a necessary evil of offering it to the general public in demo mode.

Demo System Requirements

Your workstation must have the Java runtime environment (JRE) 6 or newer installed. The client has been fully tested with the JRE on the Microsoft® Windows® operating system and the Mac OS® operating system, with occasional testing on the Linux® operating system.
To connect to the demo database, your workstation must be able to initiate a TCP connection to 75.149.159.161 on port 3306. Check with your firewall administrator if you're getting an error launching the demo. Or try a home PC which is more likely to have full outbound access to the Internet.
A display resolution of 1280x1024 is recommended to minimize scrolling, but is not necessarily required.

EnianWeb™ is the web-based flavor of the Enian thick client. It requires only a web browser with cookies, pop-up windows and Javascript enabled, and has been tested with Internet Explorer® 8, Safari® 5, and Firefox™ 3.5.6. There are a few differences worth noting:

Trees (except the Work tree) contain only search hits and related nodes, not every item available. This speeds page loading by limiting the amount of data in the tree.
Check boxes allow you to (de)select tree nodes, with shift-click implying "entire branch".
Most recent browsers have an option in the "tab" section to open pop-up windows as new tabs instead. Enabling this is recommended, but not required.
Features still under active development are either "grayed" or missing all together, relative to the Enian client.
