Research

What our customers are saying?

After conducting user interviews with the target audience and analyzing their challenges with the website experience, I performed a Thematic analysis. This method allowed me to delve into the root of the problems and identify the major issues.

Here are the major issues identified:

Inconsistent Experience
Confusing Website Navigation
Lengthy Purchase Journey

Thematic Analysis of user interviews data

Thematic Analysis

Competitive Analysis

It was the right time for me to seek inspiration and learn how the major competitors are managing and providing experiences to their users.

The goal of competitive analysis is not to copy the target audience and demographics, as they may be different, but learning and drawing inspiration from competitors can still add value to our project. We should also understand important user touchpoints such as navigation, the purchase journey, and the landing page and optimize them on our platform.

Major competitors of Siemens:

Dassault Systèmes
Autodesk
PTC
Ansys
