Does the Shoe Fit?

A big mistake the medical software industry continues to make is to allow software developers and decision makers to be focused on lists of features.

Below is from a very relevant blog post - Shoes and Software

It all reminds me of the software business. The industry is obsessed with touting features while the public is obsessed an entirely different set of criteria: Does it solve my basic problems and is it easy to use? Does it make sense? Do I understand it?
The real lesson for me is this: People want the basics done well. Does it look good, does it feel good, is it comfortable, is it clear, is it easy? No matter what you’re selling, those seem to be the things that really matter. Get those right and you’ve got a great shot at building a successful product and business.


Contrary to what many may think, doctors are people too.
