If you have just started your Twproject instance and you are ready to start improving your way of working here you can find some advice for your first steps.
In case you have just started your online trial follow this guide instead.
First access
Twproject welcomes you with the login page.
The first time you need to log in use “administrator” with empty password; then reset the password as soon as possible.
After the first login, you will log in automatically (by default). If you log off by hand, then you will need to re-enter the username and password.
First page
After login you will be redirected to your profile page. Insert here your name, surname, email and company name.
After setting an image and filling up the fields you get to the welcome page, follow the steps to be up and running in few clicks:
