As we mentioned earlier, Product Design combines many aspects of a product into one coherent whole. However, it's not only about collecting data but, most of all, processing it so that the end-user can easily use it and benefit from it.
For example: if you want to create a bookstore management system, the compilation of mere numerical data, such as the inventory of books, a list of customers, or email addresses to suppliers won't revolutionize the way people work. Bookstore staff will still have to check inventory daily, manually order missing titles and call each publisher separately.
The role of Product Design is to combine many different data and display instructions to the user, automating his work. For example, bookstore employees will receive automatic notifications when some titles are running low, and the system will automatically send the order to the publisher.
Tasks that previously required an additional vacancy now require merely two clicks.
Another example: you're creating an application for ordering bicycles. You can provide your customers with a list of all available parts, complete with technical data and photos. Then, from the frames, wheels, saddles, and handlebars, the customer selects those whose specification best suits him and places the order.
Imagine the same data passing through a dedicated interface that visualizes your bike and its changes in real-time. The user uses the same data, but the ease of ordering and the pleasure of the process is on an entirely different level.
Thanks to Product Design, you can combine many data and visualize them. As a result, the end-user makes critical decisions easier and faster.
