CONNECT.

A secure remote-desktop platform IT professionals, help desks, and MSPs use to troubleshoot, manage, and access computers and mobile devices from afar. I redesigned its Privileged Access Management dashboard during a rebrand.

Overview

A REBRAND, A REDESIGN

ScreenConnect was going through a rebrand, and its product services and dashboard were due for a redesign to match.

The existing experience wasn't as effective as it could be at giving technicians permissions. It lacked clarity, drifted from the new brand, and fell short of the modern design users expect. The goal was an experience that:

01

Monitored permissions clearly

02

Made everyday use easier

03

Met modern design standards

The challenge

Redesign the product without losing the brand's new identity — and keep customization alive for users.

Research · Insights

SOLVE THE RIGHT PROBLEMS

To make sure the redesign solved the right problems, I started by analyzing traffic data to the platform — then layered in qualitative evidence.

Internal interviewsDesign auditTicket reviewsUser surveyUser interviews

From there, three findings shaped the work:

01 / Accessibility

WCAG GAPS

Major inconsistencies, from color contrast to keyboard navigation.

02 / System

UNSTABLE SYSTEM

The design system underneath the dashboard was inconsistent and hard to build on.

03 / Security

FRAUD RISK

Unclear permission states opened the door to potential fraud risks.

Design approach

THREE LEVERS

Information architecture

COMMON FIRST

  • Organized the dashboard so the most common links are instantly visible.
  • Kept secondary topics accessible without overwhelming the user.
WCAG

ACCESSIBLE BY DEFAULT

  • Reduced customization options and introduced a light and dark theme.
  • Organized keyboard navigation so every interactive element in each column can be reached.
Visual design

ONE CONSISTENT UI

  • Created interactive graphs and charts.
  • Built a consistent look across dashboard and UI.
  • Gave every interactive element a consistent design and active state.
  • Used negative space for a more uniform layout.
04
Constraints

WORKING WITHIN LIMITS

Customization

Balancing brand expression with a clean, functional layout that wouldn't overwhelm users.

Design system

Working within existing components to keep consistency across ScreenConnect's digital ecosystem.
