About MDM 360

Users of the MDM (Master data management) platform would typically host large volume of data regarding their business entities over a period of time. The data is organized to users over lists of reports, each individual report has an option for a visual representation that can be shown over the app dashboard

The problem

User research showed low user satisfaction (5.8/10) with the current dashboard experience. The current solution had limited capabilities compared to exciting solutions in the market: Users could have one non-personalized dashboard that was generated by the system based on a defaulted layout and presented only visual data of the most used reports. Users couldn't create multiple dashboards and manage them in one place, based on their personal business needs.

My goal

Provide users with a dashboard experience that will allow them to consume multiple visual data based on their business needs and make business decisions based on this data.
