Design is near and dear to our hearts at inFlow Inventory.In fact, we can be obsessive about it; from gut-level beauty to the tiniest details of how the software should work.

Great design not only makes products more appealing but should also serve as a function to make users more effective and ultimately, happy!

So, when Microsoft announced a complete redesign of their Windows logo yesterday, it struck up a lively conversion in the office. Some people thought it was a step in the right direction while others thought it needed refinement.

If you haven’t seen the logo yet, here it is:
