We've done a major update of navigation in TargetProcess v.2.21. There were several problems:
- Main menu had sections that were rarely used.
- Some sections were confusing ("Custom reports, predefined reports, project reports... Hmm, what is the difference? Where should I click?").
- There were two admin sections: Project Admin and Admin.
We analyzed usage patterns, clicks frequency and decided to simplify the main menu and merge some sections.
Personal Settings, Project Admin and Admin sections were merge into a single Settings section that is accessible from the top. We discovered that many new users click on Settings link often, but it had Personal Settings only, which was confusing.
All the reports are combined together as well. There is no need to think which report section I want to access now.
New Settings section. You can access all the settings quickly and in a single place. Administration is easier now.
New Reports section has all the reports.
Avatars
Avatars were introduced in TargetProcess v.2.21. They are used in Teams area and in the new Teams Board component so far, but we will expand their usage in the next releases.
Avatars on Teams Board help to quickly get an idea who is who. Humans scan patterns (images) quicker than read text. Avatars are great for quick scanning and finding a person, it is much faster than reading surnames.
