Polarion ALM Custom Configuration: ALM Easy-Start
This custom configuration of the Polarion ALM platform should be especially interesting for new users and evaulators. When installed into the platform, you are taken right to the integrated Wiki on first login (as opposed to the Overview dashboard with the default configuration). The Wiki provides some helpful tips and info for getting started with Polarion ALM.

Example Project Template
The configuration also installs a custom project template that you can use to create projecs that also start users out at the Wiki. You may or may not want this for production projects, but for evaluation and exploration of the product, you can find it quite useful because you can start people off with guiding info on your project Wikis.
The Easy Start Configuration also customizes the user-adjustable interface (a.k.a. "Hats") to simplify things for those who are new to the Polarion ALM platform.
