The Challenge

To revitalize the user experience for Knowlarity’s Super Receptionists through a refreshed design. This redesign aims to empower users (business owners, team managers, agents, and Customers) to access their primary areas within the platform more efficiently and intuitively.

Complex User Roles

Different user roles (business owners, team managers, agents, and customers) have varying requirements, leading to a cluttered interface trying to cater to all simultaneously.

The current interface may make it difficult for users to locate essential features or areas quickly, leading to inefficiencies in their workflows.

Large volumes of call data and analytics can be confusing or hard to interpret without proper prioritization or visualization.

Users may struggle to find and use key functionalities like call tracking or analytics, reducing the platform’s perceived value.

The platform may not provide a seamless experience across devices, creating frustration for users accessing it on smartphones or tablets.

New users might face difficulties understanding the platform’s functionalities, causing delays in adopting and using it effectively.

The Goal

01
Revamp Information Architecture: This refresh will prioritize a more intuitive and user-centered architecture. This means restructuring the organization of content and functionalities within the platform to align with how users naturally think and work.
02
Enhanced Workflows: Prioritize user workflows by streamlining access to critical functionalities. For example, agents can view customer details directly within a pop-up window during incoming or outgoing calls, eliminating the need to search profiles and service history manually.
03
Increased Productivity: The overall design will minimize clicks and maximize efficiency. This could involve features like quick access buttons, one-click actions, and intuitive search functionalities.
04
Streamline call management: Super Receptionists aspires to simplify call routing, eliminate missed calls, and empower businesses to deliver exceptional customer service experiences.
