Learning Pie with Pie. Sweet!

What a concept! Imagine using a tool to learn that tool rather than reading a user manual. That’s exactly what we did at Pie. One of Pie’s great differentiation is the elegance and simplicity of using what we call “recipes”, where you can create new projects from successful project templates.

We now have a “Learning Pie - Training” recipe available in our Pie Recipe Store for our customers to import and use in their Pie account’s organization. Pie users will be able to create a project from this learning recipe and then follow its tasks that show how to use Pie features in a step-by-step format, just as if you were executing a project in Pie.

The team member can then go at their own pace with learning how to use Pie. The learning material is set up with descriptions, videos, and exercises.

For new people signing up directly with Pie, they will automatically have the Learning Pie recipe and project ready to execute.
