CHECKLISTS

Checklists are used to guide new users through navigation and major workflows of the application. It can also provide existing users an update on new processes or advanced tips. They are positioned in the bottom left or bottom right of the application and can trigger specific walkthroughs. Once a checklist is completed, it will no longer appear. The example below shows a list of walkthroughs for new users being onboarded in Client Center.

RESOURCE CENTER

The Resource Center provides users access to additional links or flows that can be revisited. They are positioned in the bottom right of the application, typically next to checklists, the resource center remains visible at all times. Example below shows a Prospector page where users can access Tier1’s documentation portal or relaunch the flow for search or account targeting.

SURVEYS

Surveys are used by Tier1 to gather feedback on the product. They consist of two questions: first, users are asked to rate, on a scale of 0 - 10, how likely they are to use the CRM. Second, they are asked to provide free-form text explaining their rating.

Events triggered refers to when a user interacts with a feature that Tier1 tracks. This includes basic metrics such as when a user opens the Activity Radar, switches to a specific cube, or enables dark theme. However, Tier1 does not track user search queries or input data.
