Overview

PetroZone is P97 Network’s web portal, which enables clients to manage their mobile assets, including offers, transaction reports, and fraud detection. Over time, after years of additional functionalities and bug fixes, the user interface became inconsistent in overall style and patterns, making it difficult for some users to complete their tasks. It was also challenging to analyze the data, as information was often provided in text formats that were difficult to understand. As the Senior Product Designer, I collaborated with project managers, developers, and stakeholders to establish a more organized and standardized design system library.

Challenges

1
Acceptability
The look and feel needed to be acceptable to both older and younger users.
2
Data-Heavy
PetroZone is data-heavy, often represented by tables or just numbers - difficult to process.
3
Scalability
Evolving older functions that would still need to exist in the new design along with new functions.

Approach

  • Competitive Analysis
    Researched and studied other web portals seeking patterns and trends.
  • Material Design
    Used Google Material Design as the backbone of the library to speed up the design process by 25%.
  • Patterns and Consistency
    Focused on UI of patterns and consistency to improve the overall user experience and set standards.

Solution

  • Modern Design
    Implemented a design built on Google Material Design to follow modern UI design trends, improving the overall look and feel by a minimum of 50%.
  • Standardized UI Patterns
    Established patterns for UI components for more consistent usage of design, interactions, and language.
  • Data Visualization
    Implemented a variety of graphs to help visualize large amounts of data for easier analysis.

Outcome

The initial reaction to the new design was generally positive, with many praising its modern look and feel. With a more consistent use of UI patterns, users can connect with the interface, thereby improving their overall user experience and completing tasks more effectively.
