What Goes Into Product Design? Focus on Compliance Tools
Jinfo Blog

By Robin Neidorf

Abstract

Understanding how compliance tools were designed and which problems they were designed to meet can help you to use the tools more effectively. In the upcoming FreePint Webinar on Understanding Compliance from the Inside Out, vendors will answer questions such as: How do you engage with customers? How do you stay relevant in a quickly changing regulatory environment? How do you create the right balance between standard features and customisation in a product designed for workflow integration? Join this free session.

Item

Every tool is designed to solve a problem. When you know which problem the developer was trying to solve, you can use the tool more effectively.

That's the principle that's driven the development of the upcoming FreePint Webinar: Understanding Compliance from the Inside Out. The webinar addresses the cognitive gap that often exists between the buyers or users of a product and the vendors that create them.

Our panellists for this session include product specialists at Alacra, Bureau van Dijk and Perfect Information.

Moderator and series producer for the FreePint Topic Series: Compliance in Context, Andrew Lucas, also brings extensive experience in product strategy and development for compliance-related products.

The vendors will cover:

• Who is on your product team?
• How do you engage with customers?
• How do you stay relevant in a quickly changing regulatory environment?
• How do you create the right balance between standard features and customisation in a product designed for workflow integration?

Why Learn about Product Design?

Because I frequently talk with both vendors and buyers of information products, I'm struck by how little understanding often exists between the two. This lack of understanding can create both frustration and usage challenges for buyers.

In learning more about product design, you become a more informed buyer, user and influencer for other users' choices.
