The UX Research

To enhance the UX of this SaaS application, we initiated an in-depth UX research phase. This involved delving into the product and overall business domain, evaluating the UX maturity of stakeholders, benchmarking against competitors, and gaining insights into user expectations.

Product Audit

Establish a marketplace connecting Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) with tax preparers specializing in R&D filing.

  • Heuristic Evaluation
  • Overall Findings
  • Enterprise design validation

These activities allowed us to explore a wide range of aspects, such as comprehending the heuristics, recognizing the enterprise design framework crucial for designing this product, pinpointing problem areas in the enterprise solution, and formulating valuable recommendations.

In addition to delivering users a sleek design, we focused on ensuring a stellar experience. Our goal was not only to enhance their Annual Recurring Revenue and Customer Lifetime Value but also to reduce their Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) through a seamless UX.

FigJam User Flow

We conducted qualitative user flow to validate assumptions regarding user problems. The insights gained took precedence and were subsequently integrated with findings from stakeholder insights and competitor analysis.

Competitor Analysis

Examining the competitors identified by our stakeholders, we initiated an analysis. We scrutinized numerous applications within the Tax and FinTech domains throughout the evaluation.

We analyzed the user flow of competitors and investigated potential actions that users might need to take when interacting with their products.

We identified several common features found in all Tax and FinTech products designed for enterprises.

Building on this insight, we conducted an in-depth analysis to compare their user experience and functionality. No research is truly comprehensive without a qualitative research tool, and that became our next imperative step in the research phase.
