SaaS Product Design in Edinburgh
Product design for Edinburgh SaaS businesses, where you are designing for two people who are rarely the same person. Someone buys and configures the product; someone else lives in it every day. Design that pleases the buyer and exhausts the daily user renews once and then churns, and the reasons never show up in the sales conversation.
Why this comes up
The problem
The demo is impressive, the first week is fine, and by month three the people using it daily have built a spreadsheet alongside it.
What you get
What we deliver
- The daily path made fast, even at the cost of the demo path
- Administration, roles and permissions designed as product, not settings
- Empty states that get a new account to value rather than to a blank screen
- Layouts that survive the account growing ten times larger than expected
- Bulk operations, because real users act on many records at once
- Instrumentation that shows where people actually stall

SaaS Product Design in Edinburgh — common questions
- Why separate the buyer from the user?
- Because their needs diverge. Buyers evaluate breadth, dashboards and reporting; daily users care about how many clicks a routine task takes. Optimising the demo wins the deal and loses the renewal, and the churn reason recorded will be price.
- What goes wrong with empty states?
- New accounts land on a screen with nothing in it and no obvious next step, which is where most trials die. The empty state is one of the highest-leverage screens in the product and is usually the last one anybody designs.
- Why do layouts break as accounts grow?
- Because they were designed against sample data. A table that reads well with twelve rows is unusable at four thousand, and your best customers hit that first — so the design should be tested against the largest plausible account, not a tidy one.
- How much should permissions be designed?
- More than most teams do. Permissions are where enterprise deals are won and where support tickets originate, and a model bolted on later rarely fits the way customers actually organise their teams. It is product surface, not configuration.
- Do you work with businesses across City of Edinburgh?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Edinburgh and the surrounding City of Edinburgh area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Edinburgh businesses do you usually work with?
- Financial services and data-led work, plus seasonal systems that have to absorb enormous August load without falling over. Beyond that we work across Financial Services, Technology, Tourism, Higher Education and Data Science.
- Do you cover the areas around Edinburgh?
- Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Glasgow. Edinburgh is an urban area of roughly 540,000+, and we take on work across the wider City of Edinburgh region rather than the city boundary alone.
