Business Services // Client Project

From Feature-Rich but Frustrating to
Simple Everyday Workflows.

We redesigned a mature operations platform that had grown feature by feature over several years, making navigation, dashboards, forms, and common workflows easier for everyday users without removing important functionality.

What We Set Out to Improve.

Business
Growing B2B Software Company

A mature software business with a capable product that users found increasingly difficult to navigate as more features were added.

Partnership
Product UX Redesign

Coretus worked across product planning, UX, engineering, integrations, testing, deployment, and ongoing improvements.

Goal
Make Complex Software Easier to Use

Create a practical digital experience that solves the day-to-day business problem without adding unnecessary complexity.

What We Built
End-to-End Product UX Redesign

A redesigned information structure, user journeys, dashboard system, forms, reusable components, and clearer interaction patterns.

What Was Getting in the Way.

Years of product growth had added menus, screens, settings, and workflows without a consistent experience. Existing users had learned workarounds, while new users needed too much training.

The company did not want a cosmetic redesign. It needed to simplify how people understood and completed real tasks.

Complex Navigation
Users were unsure where to find important actions and information.
Long Workflows
Common tasks required too many screens, clicks, and repeated fields.
Inconsistent UI
Different parts of the product behaved and looked like separate systems.
