Testimonials
Working with unipro solutions enabled us to show our team the power of interviews to get customers to tell us about their lives, showing us real, unmet needs other data doesn’t contextualize. It gave us ideas for immediate improvements, but also long-term solutions we can pursue.
Jason GoodinDirector of Customer Experience Design and Strategy, Everwise Credit Union 
We applied the "Jobs to be Done" theory and "Customer Progress Design" methodology from unipro solutions to better align our product development process with the needs of end customers. We develop products with a focus on sustainability and circular economy (C2C) and by applying the methods we have learned what our customers demand and how we can help them to achieve it.
Markus SteckhanChief Strategy Officer WIK – ELEKTROGERÄTE Entwicklungs- und Service-GmbH & Co. KG 
Using the Jobs to Be Done approach has provided us with the insights we needed to focus our strategic measures where the benefits for our customers and our company are greatest.
Farkonda HaschemzadaSenior Director Corporate Strategy & Digitalization at Fraport AG 
Customer Progress Design allows the essential aspects of market research to be translated into a target-oriented and user-friendly concept. In addition, it ensures that the insights gained are used consistently and sensibly to align all levels of objectives of a customer-oriented company, from the mission to operational planning.
Prof. Dr. Dennis AlbertProfessor for Marketing Management and Innovation at Wiesbaden Business School 
The Customer Progress Design method helped us uncover the unmet needs of our target customers, without being distracted by our own biases. This approach helped us to “feel” the customer’s pain, discover great new product ideas and reprioritize our existing ideas.
David A. Bell, Ph.DChairman and CEO GrandCare Health Services, LLC 
We learned about the Customer Progress Design method as a systematic approach to developing a customer-centric strategy. We have been able to experience how this method can be used to effectively experience and map the reality of customers' lives. We can use these insights to develop product, marketing and sales concepts that bring real added value to our customers.
