Role-based user experience

In modern IT solutions, especially those built on platforms like Ferryt, role-based user experience and privileges have become foundational elements for security, usability, and efficiency. Profiles, in Ferryt’s ecosystem, play a crucial role in defining user privileges and crafting a personalized user experience. This approach not only enhances security by ensuring that users have access only to the functions and data necessary for their roles but also streamlines their interactions with the system, improving productivity and satisfaction.

The privileges assigned to each profile encompass various aspects of the Ferryt platform, including:

  • Ferryt Workplace Menu and Panels Configuration: Each profile can be configured with a specific set of menu items and panels accessible in the Ferryt Workplace. This ensures that users have a tailored dashboard that aligns with their roles and responsibilities, providing quick access to the tools and information they need​​.
  • Process Steps and Actions Privileges: Privileges can be granted at a granular level for different steps and actions within a process. This allows for precise control over who can initiate, approve, or view various stages of a process, aligning with the principle of least privilege to enhance security and operational efficiency​​.
  • Form Display and Screen Sections Privileges: Users’ ability to view forms and additional screen sections is also controlled based on their profiles. This ensures that sensitive information is only displayed to authorized users, while also simplifying the user interface for a better experience​​.

Each profile can have its widgets configured to show relevant process instances along with the fields used to filter these lists. This allows for a highly personalized and efficient way to monitor and interact with ongoing processes, making it easier for users to manage their workloads and priorities​​.

In conclusion, the role-based user experience and privileges facilitated by Profiles in Ferryt offer a powerful way to secure and customize IT solutions. This approach not only safeguards sensitive information and critical system functionalities but also enhances the overall user experience, leading to improved efficiency and productivity.
