Are gated demos a smart strategy or a missed opportunity? That’s the dilemma many are facing. After analyzing 535,763 demo sessions across 50 companies, here’s what we found: ▶ Gated demos convert 43% of engaged users into leads ▶ Partially gated demos experience a steep drop-off, with a conversion rate of just 4.99% ▶ Ungated demos have the lowest conversion rate at 0.30%, as the form comes after the demo If you're weighing the pros and cons of gating your demos, check out our latest report on the Plot - a weekly column where we share data-driven insights and GTM best practices.

When do single-flow demos make sense? After analyzing 8,800 sessions across 40 demo flows, we found: If you can showcase your product in 12 steps or fewer, a single-flow demo is your best bet. Why? 👉 Single-flow demos with 12 or fewer steps achieve a 34.66% completion rate 👉 Single-flow demos with over 12 steps see only a 14.62% completion rate Our data shows a clear negative correlation between step count and completion rate. Keeping your demo focused and under 12 steps more than doubles your chances of viewers finishing it.

When do multi-flow demos make sense? After analyzing 8,800 sessions across 40 demo flows, we found: If your product showcase requires more than 12 steps due to its complexity, multi-flow demos are your best bet. Why? 👉 The first flow of a multi-flow demo achieves a 47.79% completion rate, more than double that of single-flow demos (22.63%) 👉 The second flow of a multi-flow demo maintains a 27.34% completion rate, outperforming single-flow demos by 1.2x 👉 Multi-flow demos with 3 flows (totaling 32 steps) still see higher completion rates than single-flow demos with fewer steps Breaking down demos into smaller, manageable flows keeps users more engaged—even with more steps!
