Can I Try Before I Buy?
Of course! While we think some surprises can be good (like a surprise birthday party) we don't believe in surprises in software. After your personalized demo your GetWork account manager will send you credentials on how you can access a personalized demo account. These demo credentials will let you experiment with all three views (admin, students, and employers).
Do you have any technical documentation?
Absolutely! You can find all our technical documentation here:

Is GetWork Reliable?

Furthermore the system has been built from the ground up to scale instantaneously to meet demand. Combine this careful design with some of the best engineers in the country and you ll find that GetWork is the most reliable system available today.
Is GetWork Sustainable?

GetWork is a well funded venture backed company positioned for a long term place in the market. When you commit to GetWork you're investing in a long future of innovation.
Isn’t switching really hard?

Generally the process of integration takes less than two weeks and is painless compared to other systems.
What’s included in GetWork’s base package?
GetWork isn't broken up into modules that you require you to pick and choose which elements you'd like. When you license GetWork you get everything. That includes everything we build currently, all future updates, and support for your staff, employers, and students.
How Much Does GetWork Cost?
At GetWork we understand that every institution is different. From student population to the number of administrators many variables are considered when giving a price quote. A few of the factors that we consider are:
Once a price is assigned there is no limit to the number of students, administrators, alumni, or employers that can be added to the system. For example, you could bring in 75,000+ alumni to GetWork without being charged extra.
