LACEWORK

Reporting Framework

CONTEXT

Important yet underdeveloped feature

Lacework's product sales are often driven by managers & executives seeking security insights and ROI. To support the product-led growth strategy, I led the end-to-end product design of a scalable reporting framework, working on strategy, research, ideation, iterations, and design launch.

GOAL

Success metrics

  • Increase report engagement (views, downloads, and scheduled runs).

  • Introduce essential report types according to users' needs.

  • Improve report content's time-to-value.

CHALLENGE

Complex user flow & org uncertainty

  • Rudimentary existing reporting capability and feasibility constraints.

  • Balance complex reporting processes with an intuitive user experience.

  • Multiple PM & Eng ownership switches due to org and personnel changes.

  • Limited Engineer resources.

USER INSIGHTS

Unmet needs for 2 user personas group

After conducting 10 user interviews and reviewing existing research, I found that the current reporting system does not meet the needs of both report creators (security analyst) and readers (Manager & Executive).

USER INSIGHTS

Enterprises can have 1000+ different reports

Enterprise users have a complex system and usually can have an overwhelmingly large number of different reports. They need a way to manage them efficiently.

CORE EXPERIENCE

Manage large number of reports
