This allows any type of software to be used immediately at a very high level without any prior knowledge.<\/p>\n<h3>Userlane scores live and directly<\/h3>\n<p>Unlike video tutorials, everything here works live and directly within the software itself. Users receive interactive assistance while they are already working in the respective application. As a result, companies can significantly reduce onboarding and training costs and train software users much more efficiently.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&quot;Userlane makes it possible to create step-by-step instructions within minutes, without additional programming effort and without having to adapt the software to be explained. This allows our customers to use interactive guides in any existing software,&quot;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>says<strong> Hartmut Hahn<\/strong>, founder and managing director of the Munich startup.<\/p>\n<h3>Promising solution for the rapidly growing SaaS market<\/h3>\n<p>Niklas Raberg, Investment Manager at <a href=\"http:\/\/high-tech-gruenderfonds.de\/de\/\" target=\"_blank\">HTGF<\/a> justifies the investment:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&quot;Every company that offers products or services online faces the challenge of communicating the most important features to users in a short time.
