“We were impressed by their flexibility and willingness to adapt throughout the project lifecycle.”
Product Redesign
94% of users do not trust outdated websites, and half of them find poorly optimized mobile-friendly websites frustrating. As a result, nearly 70% of users prefer to buy a product or service through a mobile-friendly website than from a competitor (even if the price is higher).
When is the time for redesign?
Challenges and implementation process
The development of online business brings challenges that affect mature organizations. One of the key aspects is migration to a new technology platform. This is a necessary step to meet market demands and keep your business competitive.
Product redesign challenges
The first is technological debt. Technological limitations encountered by customers impede the implementation of ambitious solutions tailored to market needs.
The refresh gives space to design a new functional layer of the product, enabling solutions and processes that are more intuitive for the user and effective for the business. The moment of redesign allows for refreshing the visual and communicative layer of the product.
An important aspect of this process is also designing a new information architecture, navigation, and appropriately adjusting SEO strategies and marketing activities to the new platform. Therefore, careful development of the project, taking into account technological constraints and frameworks upon which it will be based, is extremely important.
Our process - the path to success
Below we present a work process that perfectly addresses the challenges of modern online business and has been tested by us many times. The method consists of three key blocks of activities that together lead to project success.
Strategic stage
Block - Analysis of the client's business
- Analysis of the client's business context and collection of requirements
- Usability audit of the current solution
- Quantitative data analysis
- Qualitative data analysis
Block - Analysis of customer needs
- Analysis of reports and market research
- Surveys and user tests extended with in-depth interviews (IDI)
- Development of User Persona and Customer Journey Map
Block - Market environment analysis
- Competitor analysis and desk research
- Definition of competition strengths and weaknesses
- Feature benchmarking - comparison of product features
Strategy
- Developing a strategy based on the client's business needs and user needs, combined with knowledge of the market environment
- Defining the product's USP, i.e., areas desired by users, where the client is strong, and the competition is weak
- Creating a set of value propositions that constitute the market differentiators for the client's business
- Prioritizing areas based on market value, potential business benefits, and implementation costs
UX/UI stage
Block - UX
- Designing information architecture and process flows
- Creating functional mockups for key views
Block - UI
- Graphic brief and debrief
- Moodboards (color scheme, typography, graphic components, illustrations, photos)
- Design of selected UI views based on functional mockups
UX plans - Proprietary solution
- Developing of a model based on “UX plans” to enable collaborative work on a text document
- Designing with “UX plans” increases the speed, efficiency, and quality of the project
Optimization stage
Optimization process
- Analysis and selection of areas for optimization
- Collection of in-depth quantitative and qualitative information
- Definition of research hypotheses
- Development of variants
- Testing and implementation

Redesign — benefits
We develop our projects based on years of experience rooted in a balanced approach to UX/UI and systematic optimization. Our process provides comprehensive support at every stage, from analysis to implementation. Thanks to it, we achieve exceptional results tailored to the client's product requirements and market environment.
Three steps to success
Best practices
Collaboration and communication
Our best practices are based on closer cooperation and open communication. We involve all stakeholders in the project, including client teams, branding agencies, UX agencies, IT companies, and other key entities. We believe in the power of synergy and collective engagement that shapes excellent redesign strategies.
Flexible methodology
We work in an agile methodology that allows frequent and effective communication, especially in the initial stage of the project. We focus on regular meetings and teleconferences that allow for early entry into the project “tracks”. These established frameworks form the foundation, facilitating the maintenance of project continuity and quality.
Quality control and continuous optimization
We place great emphasis on quality control through regular revisions of strategic assumptions. This ensures that our projects align with strategic assumptions and aspirations. It is this process that allows us to create documents such as the “UX Foundation”, which serves as a solid foundation for our activities.
Testing and implementation
We implement our solutions through multivariate testing and ongoing optimization. This allows us to improve the project at every stage, taking into account user feedback and current market needs. Our practices are based on a dynamic approach that continually strives for excellence.
Dedicated team
We have a dedicated team that fits perfectly into the context of a given project. We ensure that this team is appropriately diverse and competent. Ideally, we have an internal team that meticulously supervises and executes the project. This is a key element of our proven practices.
Our experience in projects confirms that these practices are crucial to success. Thanks to them, every project is conducted with full commitment, quality control, and a pursuit of excellence. Discover with us the world of design based on solid foundations and proven practices.
Show system status
Maintain consistency between the system and reality
Give the user full control
Stick to standards and stay consistent
Prevent errors
Let you choose, rather than force you to remember
Ensure flexibility and efficiency
Take care of help and documentation
Checklists (usability checklist)
In the course of the usability audit of pages, in addition to usability heuristics, we also use checklists. One of them is our publication Best Practices for E-commerce containing more than 200 recommendations for the design of online stores.
