Product config user test · 30 September 2026

10 findings, each with options to discuss

For each problem the test showed: what happened, what testers said, and one or more ways to solve it, sketched. Options marked “Tried in product admin” are built in that prototype; the others aren’t. Nothing here is decided.

Hege

Sets up contracts

No onboarding

Berkay

Handles weekly customer deals

Rarely creates products

Øyvin

Needs a guided path

Heavily guided by the facilitator

What worked

  • All three understood product = content + licenses + prices without help, and started with the main group.
  • Hege and Berkay read a license group as the usage choices a customer gets.
  • Berkay and Øyvin created a time-limited subscription and described it correctly.
“It seems to fulfil what we do today, but in a nicer way.”
Berkay
“A very simple, nice and tidy page.”
Øyvin

Caveats on the evidence

  • Test 1 (Hege) was blind, with no onboarding.
  • Test 3 (Øyvin) was heavily guided: the facilitator named the licenses, set prices and prompted the publish question.
  • Seeded scope parameters ("duration") distorted the content group step in tests 1 and 2.
  • Some ideas came from Elisabeth, not testers: the exclude wish, the social media example, the default + per-customer overrides model.
