 # Getting started - Evaluation
 
-### Is AyaNova a good match for my business?
+The first step is to figure out if AyaNova is a good match for your business needs.
 
-#### What exactly _is_ AyaNova?
+We suggest the following order of steps to determine that in the least amount of time possible.
 
-AyaNova is multi-user business software used for comprehensive service management.
+### How does AyaNova work / what is it?
 
-It is a central server software program that hosts the "back end" of AyaNova and provides a web application or "front end" that one or more Users access via their web browser on a smart phone, tablet, pc or other device with a web browser.
+![client server](img/tour-bootstrap-client-server.png)
+
+AyaNova is multi-user business software used for all aspects of profitable service management.
+
+The AyaNova program is split into two parts: a "back end" server program and a front end web browser application that the User interacts with.
+
+The back end AyaNova server runs on a single central computer and performs several tasks: it hosts the database that stores your data, the business api layer that handles all the business rules and logic used by the front end for securely creating, retrieving, updating and deleting business records like Work orders, Customers etc.
+
+The back end server also acts as a web server to provide the front end web application to remote Users and handles tasks like rendering reports and storing and serving up any attached files and documents.
+
+All the hard work is done at the AyaNova server and it acts as the "referee" to manage everything going on between multiple Users and ensure all the data entered by Users is stored safely and is consistent and correct.
+
+The "front end" is a modern responsive web application that one or more Users access via the web browser on their smart phone, tablet, PC, smart TV or any other device with a web browser. The front end is designed to be be fast and efficient and adapt it's layout to the dimensions of the display on the device in use.
+
+### Rent AyaNova or install AyaNova?
 
 AyaNova is available in two forms:
 
 -   Use AyaNova as a subscription "rental" software service provided by us from any one of several data centers located globally.
 -   [Install](ops-install.md) AyaNova server to your own in-house Windows or Linux computer for a single User, internal network of Users or shared across the internet to multiple users.
 
-#### Is it in my budget?
+### Is it in my budget?
+
+HEREXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXRenting as a subscription service is more expensive than self installing however there are no up front costs, it's month to month
 
 Our prices are always listed on our [AyaNova pricing page](https://www.ayanova.com/r/pricing.htm).
+
+
+
+## Next up - Acquisition
+
+You have determined AyaNova is going to be a good match for your business it's time to acquire AyaNova licenses and get to work:
+
+Step 2. [Acquisition - purchasing AyaNova](tour-bootstrap-acquire.md)
+
+================================================================
+
+-   Check out pricing, features, skim the manual and guided tours, see if it looks remotely like what you need, ask questions of support as required
+-   Install or trial Subscription AyaNova online
+-   Evaluation, is AyaNova right for my business?
+-   Generate some sample data
+-   Take tours, play with sample data
+-   Have all users try it out as if it was installed, get feedback, configure as it would be used
+-   If something isn't quite right can it be customized to do what we need?
+-   Forms, reports, terminology and text
+-   Test import or migration of any required data for production use, e.g. v8-migrate, customer import, parts import, graphics logos
+-   Decision, will it work for us, did we try all the things we need to do over time periods i.e. daily, weekly, monthly, yearly
