Menu pinning

The main menu can be pinned/unpinned by clicking the left/right arrow at the top of the menu. While unpinned, the menu will be minimized until you hover over it to expand the menu. By unpinning the menu you can get it out of the way and have more space to show dashboards or setup pages.

Trials

When using a trial account, there are menu entries to add a trial for products you are not using or trying out yet. In a paid account, the trials are available in a different location. They can be found in the Account setup menu.
