UI/UX Design for software companies

UI/UX design works out how people move through your website or product to complete a task, then designs screens that make each step obvious. For software companies, that means getting feature and use-case pages, plan comparison and documentation and onboarding right, because business buyers evaluating tools want to start a trial or book a demo without hunting for information.

What your customers are trying to do

Business buyers evaluating tools want to start a trial or book a demo.

A software company website usually has to handle demo bookings, guides and comparison documents, trial and account sign-up and live chat for pre-sales questions.

Demo bookings: buyers who want a walkthrough should be able to pick a time immediately.

Guides and comparison documents: buyers gather material to share with their team.

Trial and account sign-up: self-serve sign-up lets buyers try the product straight away.

Live chat for pre-sales questions: quick answers keep evaluators moving.

What to have ready

Analytics or support data showing where people struggle.

Access to a few real users or customers for short sessions.

Brand guidelines, if you have them.
