FAQ - Free Trial
Here are some common questions and answers that come up during the free trial.
Q: Can we use our own photos in the banner?
A: Absolutely!
During the trial, you get generic banner pics, but when we build your "real" KiwiSchools site, you'll get a unique design including, of course, your own logo, colours and photos. Photos can then be updated any time you like... e.g. during your free once a term update!
Q: How long does the trial last?
A: We'll be in touch with you during the trial, we'll help out with tips and ideas to try, and we hope you'll find KiwiSchools so easy to use that you'll choose us sooner rather than later! Obviously, we reserve the right to limit the lifetime of any trial which goes on and on... it's a test drive, after all!
Q: How much does KiwiSchools cost?
A: Look on our website for the Prices link on the menu. It has current plans & pricing detail. Most schools choose the Silver or Bronze plans, at least to start with. You'll also be pleased to know that your KiwiSchools subscription covers pretty much everything!

Q: What happens to all the content we add during the trial - can we keep it if we choose KiwiSchools at the end?
A: Yes! All the pages, events and photos you add will transfer automatically to the new site.
Q: How long does it take to build a site for us if we choose KiwiSchools?
A: The most time-consuming part is design of the "look" we create for you. If you send us photos, logo etc promptly, we can usually have your site ready within 7 - 10 working days.
