Desktop Switch

  • This desktop switch was the first product targeted solely at the small-medium business market
  • The product was not meeting sales forecasts and its support case volume, rate, and time to close was increasing along with product returns
  • The marketing team needed customer feedback and data that would provide them insight to the commercial market experience with this switch
  • Used Bayesian sampling to quickly analyze the first three months of customer issues
  • Correlated these issues to Dunn & Bradstreet market information to discover customer profiles
  • Engaged UE team to identify usability challenges
  • Identified top 10 customer challenges and validated them via lab trials
  • Three of the top 10 challenges were addressed immediately and fixes were implemented in a special release. The remaining 7 were fixed in a later release
  • Sales have increased 30% since the re-release of the product with these changes
