ProductConnect applications let you see through the eyes of customers and users how they use your prototypes / products and embrace or reject your innovations

ProductConnect lets customers and users tell how they (want to) use and experience a product. ProductConnect can optionally be expanded with a module for purchase research and price / location research

ProductConnect is used for the further development of food products, for monitoring customer trends in a pilot store. ProductConnect is – under the name Dutch ID Monitor – also used by the National Service for Identity Data to monitor the use of Dutch identity documents.

ProductConnect is usually used for one-off surveys, but can also be performed periodically. ProductConnect is most powerful as a customer feedback and requirements discovery tool in a portfolio approach.

SecurityConnect put people back in the center of surveillance, security, information-driven action and safe working.

SecurityConnect solutions are based on the power of observation and decision power of people and human networks. Sensors, video systems and machine learning play a useful role as an extension of people, but are ultimately limited when it comes to information-driven action, the detection of weak signals and the handling of uncertain situations.

SecurityConnect solutions are almost always continuously active and therefore almost always consist of a combination of an observation point for making and interpreting observations. by guards, operators, facility staff, safety officers, managers and / or regular employees and a number of back-office systems and services for the continuous evaluation of the situation, controlling the operation and periodic reassessment of uncertainties in the safety and / or security situation .

SecurityConnect applications are usually secret. Naming customers and describing specific applications is therefore not possible. In the Netherlands, StoryConnect works together with Q-Share in IBISS for SecurityConnect applications for surveillance and security culture.
