# Sandboxes for Live Demos & POCs

### Why Sales Teams Choose Sandbox Demos

Live demos and POCs are high-stakes. Staging environments are fragile, test data looks messy, and even small glitches can erode trust with a buyer. Sandbox replicas solve this by delivering **pixel-perfect demos that behave like the real product—safe, reliable, and personalized in seconds.** The result: demos and POCs that always work, look polished, and focus buyers on outcomes that win deals.

### How Sales Teams Use Sandbox Demos

* **AEs & SEs** → running discovery or deep-dive demos without staging risks
* **Solutions Engineers** → delivering polished, reliable POCs buyers can explore safely
* **Sales leaders & enablement teams** → standardizing a consistent demo story across the org
* **Champions inside buyer orgs** → replaying or sharing demos internally to accelerate consensus

Sandbox demos work best for live demos, POCs, and leave-behinds. They’re not ideal for websites—top-funnel visitors need short, guided tours instead of free-form exploration.

### 3 Tips for Better Sandbox Demos

#### 🎨 **Personalize with Variables** 

Use [variables](/customize/personalize/variables-and-tokens.md) like `{{company}}` or `{{name}}` in titles, steps, and hotspots, and add image variables (like `{{logo}}`) to swap visuals dynamically. This way, a single sandbox demo can instantly adapt for different accounts—giving each prospect a tailored, branded experience.
{% endstep %}

#### ⚪️ **Leverage Invisible Hotspots**

Use [invisible hotspots](/customize/hotspot/invisible-hotspots.md) in your HTML-based sandbox demos to make real UI elements clickable without visual overlays. These create a sandbox-style experience where viewers can interact naturally—click, scroll, and explore—while you still control the navigation flow.
{% endstep %}

#### 🔍 **Keep It Fresh with Find & Replace**

Use Supademo's [find-and-replace tool](/customize/edit-html/find-and-replace-text-emails-and-dates.md) to update text, email addresses, or dates across your sandbox demos instantly—so your presentation always looks current without needing to re-record.
