Identifying Customer Needs

Identifying customer use cases

Use cases are descriptions of how a user or customer interacts with a product or service. They describe the actions that a user will take, the goals they hope to achieve, and the results they expect to see.

Deriving customer use cases from customer empathy maps is important because it helps us understand the specific needs and wants of customers, and how they will use the product or service. By understanding the customer use cases, the product or service can be designed and developed to meet the needs of customers better.

When creating customer empathy maps, we can understand what the customer says, thinks, does, and feels and their goals, and use this information to create use cases that reflect the customer’s needs. For example, if the customer needs a fast, secure, and reliable payment API that can handle a high volume of transactions, the API provider can create a use case that describes how the API will handle high-volume transactions securely and quickly.
