All-in-one business management platform

Product Link

Background

This all-in-one business management platform helps companies address challenges such as attendance tracking, announcements, room booking, leave applications, and more. As sales continued to decline, the company decided to fully revamp the product to attract new customers and solve long-standing usability issues.

My Role

UX & UI Designer
Led the redesign process from research to delivery, focusing on improving usability, streamlining workflows, and modernizing the platform’s look and feel.

Discover & Define

To understand user needs and pain points, our team conducted interviews with different user groups and analyzed valuable feedback. I also reviewed existing design files and performed a competitive analysis, which provided a clear picture of the platform’s weaknesses.

UX Research

Solution Discovery

1. Register process are too complicated
3. Business model are outdated

• Switched from a perpetual license to a SaaS subscription model, adding a free trial to encourage adoption.
• Redesigned the registration flow to remove dependency on customer service follow-up.
• Converted the one-page sign-up form into a multi-step process, reducing cognitive load and ensuring progress was saved after refresh.

2. On boarding is hard to understand

• Initially planned to use tooltips, but due to development constraints, we created an onboarding animation and a demo video instead, providing guidance without delaying the launch.

4. Instruction is not clear
5. UI are messy and disorganized

• Researched competitors to identify best practices in layout, color, and composition.

• Rearranged sections and standardized margins/padding for better hierarchy.

• Adopted a darker theme for a professional, steady brand image, using contrast to draw attention to important elements.

• Automatic report generation upon task completion

Impact

• Streamlined workflows, reducing onboarding time and registration friction
