frevvo requires the Insight server for the Reporting feature. The Insight server is included in the tomcat bundle. You should start the Insight server first before starting frevvo. Further configuration is not necessary for the trial period. Follow these steps:
4. Browse http://<your server:port>/solr to verify the Insight server is running. The <server:port> default values are localhost:8983. Change <your server> to the server name and <your port> to the port the Insight server is running on if they are different than the defaults. Do not include the angle brackets <>.

If you close the Insight server (Solr) startup window, the server will stop running. Leave the window open or set up frevvo and the Insight Server to run as Windows services.
Open the frevvo home page in a new browser window. e.g. https://localhost:8443/frevvo/web/login.
We recommend that you use https and not http. Https is a secure channel.

We recommend that you do not use the admin user to create your own forms. Add a new user for that purpose.

Trial tenants are configured to use the frevvo Default Security Manager by default. Once you have purchased a license for your frevvo tenant, you can switch the Security Manager of your tenant and retain forms/workflows, users, roles and submissions.
If you are planning to switch the Security Manager of your tenant to LDAP or SAML Security Managers in the future, make sure the users created in the default security manager tenant have the same user names as the users in your LDAP server or identity provider.
When you have completed the trial period and you are ready to customize your frevvo server software, please see the detailed In-house Installation Guide.
