Start a trial a brand new tenant of PDQ Connect
If you are just trying out PDQ Connect for the first time, you can start a trial with a brand new tenant at https://www.pdq.com/trial/connect/ and you'll be met with the following page that's requesting some information about you and your organization. If you're trying to join an existing Connect trial which was already started by one of your teammates in your organization, do not start a new trial - instead, have that person invite you to their existing trial.
It's important to note that a single PDQ account is used across all products, including the PDQ Help Center, so if you believe you may already have an account with PDQ, choose the 'Login to continue' button towards the bottom. Otherwise, once you've filled out all the information, click the Next Step button.
Be sure to use an email address which represents one single person on your team - don't use a shared email inbox (such as one that can be accessed by an entire IT or infrastructure team), or you risk compromising the security of your account. You may invite as many team members as you wish later, either during your trial or after purchase - there is no additional cost per user.
The following page is where you'll set your password for your PDQ account, and the email address field will be pre-populated with what was entered on the previous page. You may also create an account using SSO with either Google or Azure AD.
IMPORTANT: If choosing an SSO option, make sure the account email is the same as what is showing in the email address field.
The last step is to add an MFA method which is required for PDQ Connect. For more information on the security in PDQ Connect, visit: Product security - PDQ Connect | PDQ.
Start a trial of a specific tier of Connect
All newly created trials of Connect will be at the Premium level, which means that they will have access to all Connect features. This means that if you're just trying out Connect for the first time, you can simply start a trial, and you'll be able to see and use all Connect features.
If you're an existing Connect user interested in starting a trial at a higher tier than your current subscription, you can do this in two places:
- By logging into the billing portal at https://portal.pdq.com/ and starting a trial.
- By starting a trial within Connect itself, from the page for the feature you would like to try out.
For example, on the Vulnerabilities page, you can click the Start 14-day trial button to start a trial at the Premium level.
