What’s a “use case?”

February 8th, 2008 by Chris Basham Leave a reply »

The term “use case,” as we use it at TrackVia, is just a phrase that means the way any given customer uses our software. For example, one popular use case for TrackVia is to keep track of the resumes and cover letters of job applicants. Another popular use case is to set up a TrackVia website form so that website visitors can sign up for a company’s newsletter, and then the company can send the newsletter to the subscribers using our email campaign feature.We think all of our customers’ use cases are interesting – particularly some of the ones that show us just how creative customers can be with our technology – using TrackVia in ways that we hadn’t thought of.

  • A nonprofit Sheltie rescue organization tracks dogs in TrackVia, and uses our “website display” feature to publish a real-time display on their website of the dogs that are available for adoption, including pictures and bios: www.mnsheltierescue.org
  • Bruce Wall is a customer of ours and is a realtor in Conway, Arkansas. Bruce uses TrackVia to display a report showing properties that he’s recently sold: http://soldonfaulknercounty.com/larger-sold-homes.asp
  • Here’s a sample page on our website that shows how you can combine two of our great website features to publish a website form and a real-time report that shows the submissions from the website form: www.trackvia.com/samplePublishedReport.htm
