“Firewheel provided us with top quality design, timely delivery, and excellent customer service. I highly recommend their services.”
— Louise Johns
Opalis Software, Inc. delivers solutions that automate IT operations for over 1,600 customers worldwide. Their flagship product, OpalisRobot, is an object-oriented workflow environment which provides automation and integration for enterprise data centers.
Firewheel Design was tasked with overhauling more than 250 icons for OpalisRobot's unique interface. More than mere buttons, these images were intended for use in visual "maps" that describe the user-created cause-and-effect chain. Each icon had to convey its meaning — often a complex and abstract one — clearly and succinctly.
Firewheel developed a symbolic system that allowed us to distinguish between events, tasks and status reports. The final results are perfectly suited to the Windows XP environment while providing OpalisRobot with a distinct look and feel.
