Do you have any demos of MarvelClient on Nomad?
Yes, we have several webinars to help you understand what MarvelClient on Nomad can do, and how to get started:

I don't see the HCL Nomad options in my Config database
The header area of the action forms should have icons like this for the various HCL Nomad platforms:
If you don't see the Browser, iOS, or Android options, it's time to update your Config DB. See our page on Updating MarvelClient for instructions on how to get the latest templates.
Why don't my Location and Connection actions run on HCL Nomad?
The HCL Nomad clients use Location and Connection documents a little differently than HCL Notes desktop clients. For example, Location names are hardcoded and there is no option to switch locations in the client. As a result, any existing Location and Connection actions in your Config DB will not run on Nomad platforms by default.
While you can edit the Location and Connection actions in the Config DB and manually select one of the HCL Nomad platforms, be careful! Some of the standard Notes client settings are not applicable to HCL Nomad, and they might cause problems with startup or connectivity.
For Location documents specifically, we also recommend that you use the new Nomad Location action that you can find in the Nomad menu of the latest Config database. This has a simplified set of options, and it will automatically find and modify the correct Location document for Nomad clients.
