Three EnvisionConnect secrets revealed

A colleague e-mailed regarding the post, What is a Smart Client anyway?.

She asked...

"In this article, you insinuate that the technology is the reason for EnvisionConnect's resounding success, and too many times to mention, you have attributed the product's success to Scrum and the hard work and commitments of you team. Are there any other factors to the product's success."

Well, what can I say? I am shocked.

If I have led readers of this blog that these are the only two factors in making EnvisionConnect the success it is today, then I owe both our design team and our customers a very BIG apology.

Here are some secrets to our success, but don't tell our competition—if we have any.

• Envision became EnvisionConnect to draw attention to the fact that the new interface was designed from the ground up by our customers.
• Our design team works side-by-side with customers, creating and evaluating prototype interfaces to ensure that the designs delivered to development are the most intuitive work environment possible.
• Both our design and development teams work iteratively—think “evolution”—continuously improving and enhancing EnvisionConnect based on the latest user feedback.

So if I have slighted our customers or designers in any way, I am sorry. The development team could not have done it without you.
