PROBLEM
OBSERVATION
While working on Order and gathering existing customer feedback.
I dug a little deeper to understand how the customer adds this info.
What I found was a process that had a disconnected experience with a high margin of error.
CUSTOMER TASK- Within a transactional app, if the customer has issues they can ‘open a case’.
The customer always has to browse. The options presented are alphabetical, not personalized for the particular customer.
All ‘Case’ feedback is handled by the Support team and today it goes to an application managed by them.
But for the customer, it needs to be seamless.
The context is lost, it is not an integrated solution for the customer.
This also makes it hard for the support team to respond satisfactorily.
SOLUTION
Create a unified experience by the following.
Add an icon on the application that the customer is on for cases
On clicking the icon the user has two tabs- either open a case or manage cases
If the user wants to ‘open a case’ contextual options for that particular page will be shown
Default and pre-fill as many fields for the customer, including a screenshot
When the user needs to see the status of the case the dashboard is easily assessable
These features also help the support teams better facilitate each issue since everything is now more clear
RESULT
Product was successfully launched
Margin of error reduced by 45%
Stakeholders were delighted with the new experience
Strive to create a holistic experience for the customer on the things that we can control.
