UX, UI, & Website

The Challenge

Prototype was appointed to redesign the website for Saudi Arabia's largest telecommunication provider STC. The project followed our UX design process including user research, information architecture, user journey mapping and user testing to ensure the perfect result for both customer and client.

The key challenge was the vast amount of content, product information and various user journeys that had to be taken into consideration to create a website that is available in 5 languages and caters to millions of users.

The Solution

The first step was to reinvent the information architecture of the site and design a new navigation system that would allow users to browse the website with ease.

We introduced contextual navigation elements which allowed users to focus on specific content while staying able to navigate further to related content sections at any point in time. Contextual information also meant that help and support information had to be made more accessible to users by directly embedding links and widgets in the content.

Guiding Principles

The STC website and mobile designs have been developed to be both customer-centric and making sure users always know where they are and where to go next, this achieved keeping the users' attention on the information presented.

The overall experience has been re-designed to create a coherent experience across desktop and mobile channels, make a clear offer with a linear narrative, make offers discoverable, and allow cross-sells and up-sells along the way.

User Testing to Ensure Results

Project quality was provided by ongoing user testing as well as focus groups that would evaluate, test and provide instant feedback during the design process.

Mobile Experience

With mobile traffic dominating it was important to focus on the mobile experience, therefore we designed each mobile screen separately to ensure pixel perfect results.

The Result

By applying our full-fledged creative process for experience design and UI, we created a new website for STC that delivers results and was in line with their new brand uplift.
