VERTAFORE APPLICATION CATALOG
MODERNIZATION OF THE ORANGE PARTNER CATALOG

Vertafore works with complementary companies, whose products are integrated into the Vertafore's AMS360 product. These companies, better known as "Orange Partners," can be found in the application catalog.

Goal:

Redesign the application catalog, where Orange Partners are located

  • increase intuitiveness of flow

  • update to the Vertafore design system

Deliverable:

Updated flow of the application catalog, now both intuitive and visually appealing. Quick and easy recognition of Orange Partners.

Role and Skills:

The AMS360 application catalog was redesigned with the goal of modernizing the look by using Vertafore's design system and creating an easy, user friendly experience

Before:

  • outdated design

  • tight spacing, making content difficult to read

  • tiny fields

After:

  • updated layout

  • utilized white space

  • larger fields

WORKSHOP

I helped organize an on-site workshop, which included members from the Product and Development teams. Vertafore is mainly a remote company, so this workshop gave us the opportunity to strengthen relationships between teams, give a face to Design, and most importantly, allow for collaboration and ideas outside of the Design team

To prep for a group exercise, I did a quick competitive analysis of how other companies use third party integrations, similar to AMS360's Orange Partner program. The exercise included sharing comments (with FigJam stickies) to each company's screens and grouping the similar opinions.

INTERVIEWS AND INSIGHTS

Internal

Goals:

  • gain a better understanding of the relationships between AMS360, its users, and the Orange Partners

  • understand which how the feature works  

External

We conducted three rounds of interviews:

  • current use, before workshop and redesign

  • first set of iterations

  • final iteration

Insights

  • separation of "Your Integrations" and "Available Integrations" brought clarity to status of integration

  • copy was confusing

  • user(s) skipped over text

  • vertical bubble stepper was confusing
