I am a nice guy, but I am a grumpy designer.

Enterprise users don’t expect the software they use at work to be designed well.

Myth #1

People are more productive with better designed software.

Fact #1

source: trust me

Enterprise software has to be complex and utilitarian.

Myth #2

Enterprise software can be human and easy to use.

Fact #2

HipChat empty state

ADG writing style

Illustrations

Myth #3

Design for scale

It’s not all about features
