Demo Group Learning Environment / Sandbox

Thank you for your interest in our auction platform! Silent Auction Pro™ is a simple and powerful auction/event management software solution that works well for virtual, online, in-person, and hybrid events!

Whether you're just starting to look at our software option, or you're a current customer looking to brush up on skills or try a new feature, the Demo Group is the place to come for learning and training.

Silent Auction Pro™ Demo Group is a fully functional group with real world data that you can use as a training platform / learning environment or sandbox when coming up-to-speed with the system. The demo group (Group #1) is a great place to experiment with all the features and functionality of Silent Auction Pro without the risk of getting test data mixed up with your own group's data.

If you are not yet a Silent Auction Pro customer, take a look around! Try logging in as an admin or a bidder to see all that Silent Auction Pro can do. When you're ready, give us a call to schedule a virtual meeting where we can show you features, and answer your specific questions.

You may use the demo group at any time for learning, testing or training purposes, but please keep in mind the following:

  1. Unlike your own group's data, the data in the demo group is public.
  2. The data is reset every night around midnight Eastern time. Any changes you have made in the demo group will be gone the next day.
  3. Though unlikely, the data may be reset at any time during the day. We RARELY do this, but occasionally it is necessary depending on circumstances.

Login as an Administrator

Most likely, you want to login as a high level admin, so that you can experiment with the majority of the Silent Auction Pro features.
To do that, click HERE to be logged in as an Auction Administrator. (Admin login: demoadmin / welcome)

Logged in as an Auction Admin, you are able to practice entering donors/donations, creating auction items, managing bidders and tickets, as well as check-in and check-out procedures.

Tasks allowed only at the Group Admin level; for example, changing the software package choice, adding a credit card surcharge, and uploading a Banner and Logo, are not available in the Demo Group / learning environment.
If you need help with these tasks, please feel free to email the support team, or give us a call: 408.583.4880 x2.
Please see our help page on user account / membership levels for more information about tasks allowed with each authorization level.
