ProcessOn builds a map-sharing community for high-end internet users

We introduced last year the mapping tool ProcessOn that would like to build Visio online substitutes. They want to extend the scope of their sharing and writing to the entire Internet practitioner in the form of a community.

ProcessOn built a microblogging-like community for users to share their own product maps, engineering drawings, or to initiate topic questions and answers. They believe that there is a real need for communication and learning among product managers and interaction designers, and that they can share the results of community exchanges and seek peer advice through ProcessOn.

ProcessOn share the community's social attributes, and users can log in via Weibo, QQ and Ming Road accounts. The first entry will default to Timeline the recommended and automatically filtered user content within the site. With the user's use and interest settings, the timeline content will become more personalized, and ultimately let the user positioning for their own exchange of people. In addition, users can build their own discussion groups to focus on the relevant cartographic results. The community, like the microblogging, knowledge and petals of professionals, processon that because of the positioning of product features and content, it would naturally form a quality community of professionals and high-end users. Production tools and communities complement each other, forming a closed loop that revolves around professionals to create, share and optimize, and is the goal of Proceeson to build communities.

As far as profitability is concerned, they admit that there has not been much consideration and that the current focus is on optimizing product and content operations. They believe that when product users form a high viscosity and active degree, the transformation mode will become intuitive and feasible.
