CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE

Customer journey map for a SaaS trial

This map traces a B2B buyer from evaluation through a SaaS trial and subscription decision. The buyer first looks for fit through pricing and integration information, then has to create a workspace and involve another person. The first shared project is the key value moment: it proves the product can support an actual workflow rather than a solo demo. The map identifies unclear setup and plan selection as points to research. It gives product, growth and customer teams a shared account of what must happen before conversion. The stages can be tested with interviews, event data and support conversations, then refined as the onboarding experience changes.
