User Interface
When it comes to efficiency and end-user satisfaction, fine-tuned usability is one of the most important
factors in any software platform. This is especially true of cannabis tracking software, as the end user
might spend the majority of their time working with the software. In order to provide functionality,
speed, and convenience to a cannabis business, a software solution must maintain a balance between
ease of use and a robust set of features. The user interface supports the overall product design in
deciphering human factors such as preferences, habits, and learned skills in order to effectively serve
the intended purpose of the software as it relates to the businesses that utilize it. A strong functional
design is critical in providing a positive user experience and maximizing user efficiency.
Usability is qualitatively measured as a software’s ability to anticipate what a user might need to do. This
includes ensuring that all of the elements in the interface are easy to access, understand, and use. Well-
designed software establishes familiarity by maintaining a consistent interface and predictable
interactions throughout so users feel comfortable with the system, allowing them to complete their
desired tasks quickly. It will help users perform actions quickly as well as become more efficient in their

day to day tasks. Best practices also suggest having a simple interface with consistency (common
elements) and a page layout based on hierarchical importance and flow.
The next section includes screenshots of the dashboard and bank reconciliation screens of each software
to help you compare the user interface of each software.

Conclusions
The selection of a software solution is a process which, if undertaken with scrutiny and a willingness to
obtain as much information as possible, can result in a huge increase in efficiency amongst your team.
No single factor is the most important, but rather a balance of many interdependent factors. Which
factors are really important for your business? Is your planning focused around a budget? Integration
with third-party apps? Do you prefer to maintain your software yourself via an on premise server or
utilize a cloud-hosted solution maintained by the software vendor? Additionally, what are your budget
and internal competencies? On-premise solutions are preferred by large companies because they
provide increased control of the platform and can assist in overcoming security concerns. Alternatively,
online solutions are advisable for SME’s as the customization and costs (hosting, maintenance,
implementation service, etc.) are usually minimal or even included in the base rate.
In order to select the best tracking software for your needs, it is also vital to weigh the desired benefits
against the management team’s constraints while also considering the team’s day to day operational
needs. The most fundamental goals for any decision maker are to grow the business and support the
teams which make the success of your organization possible. As collaboration is the key to success with
any team, it is beneficial to choose a simple and user-friendly solution which will help your colleagues
work quickly and effectively while avoiding the need for expensive and time-consuming training
sessions.

enterprise thinking about changing your current software, the information in this document will help
