VIRTUOSO

 

Director of UX & Design

 

Virtuoso provides luxury travel agents with the ability to search and book high end travel services. 

 

User Problem:  The project and tool was a non-starter. The team did not have an understanding of the user need and design direction to meet demand.

The agent needed to be able to lookup travel solutions as fast as the client using Expedia. Their need was for standard and custom travel solutions like leer jets and yachts. They also wanted to be able to respond quickly to emergencies as well as coordinate communication between themselves, travelers and operators to get custom needs met.

Design Solution:  We designed a CRM solution and extending the search capability to include custom options and services. We also provided social networking and communication solutions for collaboration. We then added features such as secured profile information, printable and digital itineraries, all to create a custom vacation.
