# Demo organizations
|
|
|
|
!!! warn ""
|
|
|
|
**Note:** The ability to create demo organizations is an upcoming
|
|
feature. It is not available yet.
|
|
|
|
If you would like to try out Zulip without having to make any
|
|
decisions (like how to name your organization or whether to import
|
|
data from an existing chat tool), you can create a Zulip demo
|
|
organization.
|
|
|
|
Demo organizations differ from a regular Zulip organization in a few
|
|
ways:
|
|
|
|
* A demo organization will be automatically deleted 30 days after
|
|
creation. You can convert a demo organization into a regular
|
|
organization if you'd prefer to keep its history.
|
|
* You do not need to choose a URL when creating a demo organization;
|
|
one will be generated automatically for you.
|
|
* A demo organization cannot be directly upgraded to a paid Zulip
|
|
Cloud plan without first converting to a regular organization.
|
|
|
|
Other than those limitations, they work exactly like a normal Zulip
|
|
organization; you can invite additional users, connect the mobile
|
|
apps, etc.
|
|
