cloudmaven  ·  the new website — start here

Have a look at the new website. Tell us what's wrong.

This is the Cloudmaven website with the new technology underneath it and the search engine work done. It is not public. Click around it exactly as a visitor would, and whenever something looks wrong, press the yellow button in the corner and say so.

Getting in

  1. Open one of the links below.Any of them. You'll be asked for your email address.
  2. Type your work email.The one you already use — Cloudmaven, Christiani or Inplenion all work.
  3. Check your inbox for a six-digit code and enter it.It arrives in a few seconds. No password, nothing to remember.
  4. That's it — you're in for 24 hours.After a day it will ask again. Same three steps.

If it says you're not allowed in, your address isn't on the list yet. Tell Carsten and it takes him a minute.

Where to go

The new website →

The whole site, all 286 pages, working. Click through it like a customer would. This is the one to start with.

Want to see what a visitor in Germany or the UK gets? Add ?region=de or ?region=uk to the end of any page address. The company named in the footer changes — Cloudmaven GmbH for Germany and Austria, Cloudmaven UK Ltd. for the UK and Ireland, Cloudmaven AG for Switzerland. That happens automatically for real visitors based on where they are.

The website as it is today →

The same site without any of the new work, so you can put the two side by side in two browser tabs and see whether we've made it better or just different.

Every change we made, page by page →

A list. Red is what the site says today, green is what we changed it to. Filter it, search it, disagree with it.

Everything people have flagged so far →

The notes everyone has left, newest first, with a link to the page each one is about.

Saying something is wrong

On every page, bottom right corner:

Something wrong here?

Press it, pick what kind of thing it is, type what's wrong and what it should say instead. Send. That's the whole thing — no email, no forms, no ticket. The page address comes along automatically, so you never have to explain which page you meant, and your name is attached because you already signed in.

Be as blunt and as specific as you like. "This whole paragraph is wrong, it should say X" is more useful than "the tone feels off". If you can paste the exact sentence, do.

What this is, and what it is not

It is
  • The real cloudmaven.com content, copied — the same words, the same pictures, the same design
  • Running on the new technology, so we can prove it works before we switch
  • Private. Search engines cannot see it and cannot index it
  • Safe to click anything. You cannot break it
It is not
  • The live website. Nothing you do here reaches customers
  • A redesign. It looks the same on purpose — the design conversation is separate
  • Somewhere to fill in forms. Please don't — the contact forms and the cookie banner still point at the real system, so a test enquiry would land on a real desk

What actually changed

Four things, and none of them touch a word of the page copy:

If you want the numbers rather than the summary, they are on the page-by-page list.

Questions people ask first

Can I break it?

No. It is a copy. The worst you can do is leave a note nobody acts on.

Why does it look exactly the same?

On purpose. This proves the new technology serves the current site correctly. Changing how it looks at the same time would make it impossible to tell which change broke what.

I found a typo in the actual page text. Is that useful?

Very. We already found several — one headline reads "Oil & GAs", and a few pages about contracting carry paragraphs about banking. Flag anything like that.

Do I need to install anything, or use Git?

No. Everything is in the browser. Only Abdel needs the code, and that's a separate conversation.
