1. Overview

Moneyway UI Shot
Moneyway is an all-in-one financial management platform for  SMEs. It is designed to make life easier for companies and their accountants.Through this concept, Moneyway serves as a single source for businesses' financial data. Business owners use it to run their business and ensure that operations are running smoothly, from purchasing to revenue management. As SMEs mostly use separate accountant firms, Moneyway offers accountant firms the opportunity to manage their clients' financial data

Step 4 : What aspects of Moneyway causes pain to our users, and why?
To uncover what our users don't like, and what might make them want to leave/switch to another provider.

The User Interview

Key takeaways were collected from the interview. Then, I transformed those insights into an affinity map to define: pain points and ares of improvement.
Step 3 : What aspects of Moneyway do our users care about the most, and why?
What features are beneficial, and how to enhance the experience.
Step 2 : Define the motivations

Before the user interview

Context

An interview was conducted with one of our users. He is an owner of a design agency with two offices, one in London and one in Liverpool. He’s an employer of two teams, 20 employees, ranging from developers, designers, projects managers, HR and sales.

Actions & Priorities

Based on the research done so far, I have developed an action plan for the next phase. Major pain points need to be resolved to avoid losing users to other platforms.
Losing money, an investment opportunity, or even a high calibre employee can affect an SME negatively.

Objective 3 : Our suggestions to enhance the experience.

Pain points to address

1. Moneyway doesn’t help users with managing their budget
user quote about painpoint 1
2. Moneyway doesn’t help users analyse their business information
user quote about painpoint 2

Prototyping & usability testing

At this phase of the design process, I usually conduct a round of testing to verify my design. First, I create a prototype and develop a set of tasks that our users can do while I observe and record their reactions. I usually test the prototype on five users. It is enough for me to verify the design.I normally build the prototype on Framer as it offers a better mobile experience for testing.
