Telematics Dashboard (name withheld for privacy reasons)
Problem: Clunky, old, programmer-built dashboard for a global telematics company. Hidden menus, no usability flow, Windows 2000-esque appearance.
Insights: Through some user testing, and surveys we were able to define a couple of pain points that could be eased with a more direct user interface.
#1 - Reports were not being accessed, or rarely being accessed, due to being hidden in a small menu.
#2 - Widgets were not being used because they were not simple enough.
#3 - Widgets and reports are virtually the same thing.
#4 - Some reports do not show visually appealing data, or potentially have too much data. (For example, hundreds of points of interest on a given driver’s route x multiple drivers.)
