Abstract We have received feedback from our users and supporters on the functionality and usability of the Swiss Grid Proteomics Portal during its first year of operation. We have also realized which aspects of the portal could be improved upon through frequent monitoring and interaction with the production system under heavy use. In a second highly upgraded version of the Swiss Proteomics Portal called iPortal we have introduced several new concepts based on this feedback and both user and supporter experience. In this paper we detail the requirements and the improvements we have made and also give an outlook on future possible improvements.
