Need a tool for walking users through my website

February 28, 2013 11:07 PM

The idea here is that I have a product for a specific niche (construction management), that is well designed and (I think) very intuitive. But the target users are not very savvy in terms of WHAT they should be doing. I need to walk them through various processes step by step.

I'm envisioning something that can easily be scripted that will walk them through various pages, functions etc. Wait for them to enter something into a field, point out the next field (with a text bubble or the like) and then keep them moving through it.

I swear I saw something like this a few months ago, but I can't find out now. Anyone?

Joyride is a jQuery plugin that does this.

Guiders-JS is what I've used in the past.
