# TradeAware Onboarding Videos
On this page you'll find a step-by-step guide to the TradeAware platform. We'll walk you through each feature and show you how to get the most out of it. You have access to all our training videos, as well as a more detailed technical breakdown in our [user guide](https://docs.live-eo.com/tradeaware).
We recommend following the chapters in the order presented. Both our training videos and the user guide follow the ideal workflow within TradeAware, allowing you to build your setup step by step without missing any important elements.

Before creating any additional legal entities or workspaces, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager. We'll be happy to guide you and make sure everything is set up correctly.](#user-content-fn-1)[^1]
