At a trade show, every hour at the booth counts. We deliver your demo devices tested and complete, directly to your stand, handle installation and setup on request, and collect everything once the show ends. Back with us, each device is logged, inspected and prepared for its next deployment. With LIMES, you can see which device is at which trade show and when it will be available again.

A showroom only convinces with current, fully functional devices. We stock your showrooms from the demo pool, swap models whenever the product range changes, and return retired units to refurbishment or remarketing.
Whether flagship store, shop-in-shop and concession space, or specialist retail: we stock sales islands, displays and presentation areas with your demo devices. We deliver, replace units at model changes and collect them again, across all locations and fully documented in LIMES.
A roadshow is only as strong as its weakest stop. We coordinate the demo equipment roadshow logistics across the entire tour: delivery to the first stop, onward transport from venue to venue, and return after the final date. Your devices arrive complete and ready to use at every stop, so your team can focus on the conversations.

In the B2B segment, the decision is made in a hands-on trial, often with several stakeholders and over several weeks. We bring the test devices directly to your prospect's point of use, including installation on request, and collect them again on the agreed date. The duration and location of every trial placement are documented in LIMES, so your sales team knows exactly when to follow up.
Testing before buying only works if the process scales to many devices at once. We ship test devices to your customers, retrieve them if there is no purchase, and prepare them for the next deployment, no matter how many units are in the field in parallel.
Whether a product launch, customer event or esports tournament: an event has no dress rehearsal in front of an audience. We provide the devices from your demo pool exactly on schedule, check them in advance for completeness and function, and deliver them directly to the venue. When several events run in parallel, LIMES keeps you on top of which device is in use, when and where.

Many creators, many addresses, many individual shipments. We handle dispatch and retrieval to each individual recipient, document who has which device, and make sure the units return to your pool once the collaboration ends.
A review lives and dies by the editorial deadline. We deliver test devices on time, complete and with all accessories to editorial teams and trade press, collect them after the test, and inspect them before the next outlet receives them.
People who work with a product every day recommend it with greater conviction. We equip your dealers and sales partners with devices, deliver to every location, and record in LIMES who is using which device. When a new model arrives, we swap it in, collect the predecessors and move them into refurbishment or remarketing. That way, your partners always work with the latest version.

Demo devices accompany the customer throughout the entire purchase decision, from the first moment of attention to the close. In the early stage, they create visibility, for example at trade shows, launch events or in reviews. In the mid and late stages, they deliver the decisive hands-on proof, for example in a proof of concept or during a try & buy.
A proof of concept is a time-limited practical test in which the customer verifies whether a product meets their specific requirements. With try and buy, the customer uses the product in real-world operation and then decides whether to purchase. Both reduce the risk of the buying decision, but they apply at different points in the customer journey.
Reviews often reach potential buyers before sales ever does. A test device provided on time and in working order is the prerequisite for a well-founded evaluation. This turns the product test into a reach and trust factor in the early part of the customer journey.
Demo devices are especially worthwhile for complex, high-value products whose benefits only become clear in use. The more complex a product and the higher the investment, the more the hands-on experience shapes the purchase decision.
