What
The overview screen shows you basic information and the status of the currently
selected site.
Trialing an Aptana Cloud
You may try the Aptana Cloud service for up to 30 days before deciding
to sign up as a customer. You can deploy one trial site for the entire
period or a series of sites, but only one at any given time. Once you deploy
the first trial site the 30 day clock starts and it doesn't stop or pause
even if you delete the trial site; that is, if you deploy a site on, say,
January 1st, your trial ends on January 31st whether you deleted the trial
site on January 3rd and did not deploy any other trial sites for the remainder
of the month.
The My Aptana page will show the remaining time in your trial as soon as it begins next to the Help link at the top right of the page.
