About POC Manager

Our Story

POC Manager is not a commercial project. I built it out of my own experience as a Sales Engineer — after running countless Proofs of Concept and realizing there had to be a simpler, cleaner way to keep everything organized.

This is a project I created because I needed it myself, and I believe other Sales Engineers might find it just as useful. It's something I care about improving over time, based on real-world use and practical feedback.

How to Access POC Manager

Self-Hosted Option

You're welcome to clone the GitHub repository and run it on your own infrastructure:

https://github.com/marcelonyc/poc-manager

Hosted SaaS Instance

Or you can use my hosted deployment:

https://pocmanager.marcelonyc.com/app

Free to use

I don't charge for access to the SaaS instance. Down the road, I may ask for voluntary donations to help cover infrastructure costs and improve availability — but there's no intention to turn this into a commercial product.

Service Availability Commitment

For the hosted instance, I currently commit to:

  • 7-day Recovery Time Objective (RTO): Maximum time to restore service after an outage
  • 24-hour Recovery Point Objective (RPO): Maximum acceptable data loss measured in time

As the user base grows, I hope to improve these targets and make the service more resilient.

Philosophy

POC Manager is built by a Sales Engineer, for Sales Engineers. If it helps you run better POCs, then it's doing exactly what I intended.
