Halo recreated our existing another portal with a completely new experience and interface that is much more modern and beautiful, greatly increasing usability and delight for the end user. We had about 100 different screens and variations to design, and Halo partnered with us with expert visual design and usability recommendations.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Halo developed our new donor portal in Figma after performing hours of research, competitive analysis, wireframing and more, which all led to over 100 new screens of beautiful UX/UI work. The end result was a Figma file and prototype with all the assets and instructions our team needed to code the site.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Halo was terrific with their project and time management. We worked with them daily via Slack and Figma comments. Often, we left requests, dreams, and edits by end of day and woke up the next morning to find most everything done or in process. It was fun going through such a creative partner who added so much expertise and value to the work product. 

Sometimes we asked for things that weren't the best idea, and the Halo team carefully gave us rationale and other options to achieve the same goals. But they also didn't force their opinions on us. In the end, it was our final product, and they deferred to us for final decisions.

What was your primary form of communication with Halo Lab?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Halo's deep expertise in UX/UI was evident throughout the project, and their consistency was key: once we made an important UI decision, they meticulously applied it to all screens nicely. As well, Halo was super flexible. We didn't love some of their initial designs, but we worked collaboratively to dream and look at other great examples from around the web, and then Halo's rounds 2, 3,+ were awesome designs. 

Plus, Halo Lab keeps pivoting based on new ideas and brainstorms that we have throughout the project. Numerous times we asked if they could do a sidebar to explore a new direction, and they handled it all beautifully.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Halo Lab could have done differently?

Our only improvement area for Halo would be clearer communications. Because we were in the U.S. and Halo is in Ukraine, occasionally there were language or clarity gaps. But it was nothing big or too difficult to overcome.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Halo lab first evaluated our previous website and conducted competitive research. After that, they suggested using Vercel to host the website, Sanity as a CMS, and NextJS as a JS framework. One of our goals was to make the website as fast as possible. A combination of these technologies helped us achieve one of the KPIs After we decided general approach, halo-lab assigned a designer whose portfolio we thought resonated with our brand the most and proceeded with creating the design for our website.

Halo-lab's designer showed us multiple prototypes and style approaches in Figma. Once we settled on the design approach, she created all the website pages. Once halo-lab finished the design, developers started to build the website, including some work on bugs. Throughout the project, we had full support from halo-lab's project manager.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

As the Chief Product Officer of a B2B Ecommerce platform in Australia, my primary responsibility is to lead the company's product development strategy deliver the best possible customer experience.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Halo Lab?

We had an existing product in market that required ongoing UX/UI and we decided to work with Halo Lab instead of hiring a full-time designer based on their previous work which is customer-centric, intuitive, and visually appealing.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Halo Lab were referred to us by one the Head of Design at another company we knew who had a fantastic experience and could not recommend them more highly.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

Although we had an existing product, our includes a number of complex workflows and interfaces as it is an ecommerce platform designed to manage the sales and orders for commodities.

Therefore the first challenge was onboarding the team at Halo Lab to the industry and customer so they had context for what they needed to design. We did this through a few initial video calls and product demonstrations and they were fast to grasp the problems we needed to solve and the jobs to be done by our users.

By having both a Project Manager and Lead Designer the time it takes to explain complex concepts and discuss briefs becomes more efficient and effective.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

My team has worked with a number of designers and Project Managers over the past year. Our team now includes a PM, Lead Designer and Product Designer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Whilst this project is ongoing so far the designs that have been implemented have been received with great success and the team continues to propose improvements and new strategies to consider.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow is really efficient and both the PM and designer ask great questions. Especially if they are not clear about the requirement or need more context for the problem we are asking them to solve. Of course, as with any team it's important to provide clear instructions which is what we focus on from our side.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The caliber of their designers is consistent and when we have had to pause work if the designer we have been working with is unable to rejoin the project the new designer is quick to pick up on the tasks and onboard quickly.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

At this stage I can't think of areas that require improvement.
