Non-responsive web application caused high abandonment

OSH situation was that their web app was only displayed for desktop viewing and not responsive for other devices. Testing OSH original dashboard with one-on-one potential users showed pain-points with navigating throughout the application causing potential leads and paying customers to abandon the application if not suited for their devices.

Creating a flowchart helped me move fast

Creating a flowchart depicts how the organization of the application would be laid out, and creates a guide for how users will interact with the pages and features of the application. Creating this flowchart enabled me to explore how the Information Architecture should be laid out in order to come up with the best flow of the application for users to finish their task-at-hand more efficiently.

Laying the Foundations

Based on the defined user scenarios, I proceeded to create multiple iterations of the application by creating wireframes — blueprints for the app to define the priority of information, how it will be displayed, and how different personas will do their respective tasks.

By doing this I was able to test multiple ways of organizing the interactions and the content of the application so that the functionality works well to avoid problems down the road before I proceeded in creating the visual elements of the application.

Were we landed

After testing users interactions of the wireframes I was able to then apply final visual elements to the application based on a new brand guideline to increase users desired actions and a stunning application.
