How it all started

We were not always the big community we are today. Our story started back in 2006 and it’s safe to say that a lot has happened since then!
2006
The Visma HCI team was founded. The team included 3 designers with initial plan was to say ‘Yes!’ to all projects they could get their hands on
2010
Doing well, Visma HCI quickly grew to 20 designers and becomes Visma UX. Following that, UX becomes a group function in Visma.

We are proud to say that Visma UX has come to grow to 170+ designers. In addition, CX & UX is part of the Visma group OKRs and is seen as a key to success in product development.

These are our design principles

In Visma we have a set of principles to guide us when we build products. These principles are meant to help us align, reduce arguments and guide us in our decision making process. The outcome of using them in our daily work should be clear priorities and focus on what matters.

We put people first

Knowing our customers and end-users ensures that we solve the right problems, say the right things, plan for the unexpected and thereby create value.

We are co-creatives

Collaborating with our customers, stakeholders and colleagues empowers us to expand our perspective and create meaningful solutions throughout the customer journey.

We are mindful and flexible

We reuse design patterns when possible, as it helps our customers and end-users get familiar with our products. We adapt to product brands, context and continuously evolve as user needs change.

We like to learn from each other

Even though we are 170+ designers in Visma, we have managed to keep the threshold for sharing and getting support low. Here you can learn more about what we do to keep building a great culture in our design community.

We offer a UX Buddy program

UX Buddies are our new designers first friends in our design community - someone to spar ideas with, learn from and get an extra pair of eyes on design from. On top of that, we offer the buddy program to designers who have been in Visma for a while, and are looking to grow. What’s cool to see, is that there’s always a buddy for those who ask.
