Key Challenges
- Outdated Brand Perception: The website did not project the company as a modern, international SaaS provider.
- Poor Navigation & Information Architecture: The site structure was not intuitive, making it difficult for users to explore product offerings.
- Low Engagement & Conversion Rates: The site lacked clear calls to action (CTAs), trust signals, and an optimized lead-generation flow.
- Multiple Market Segments: The site needed to serve different business sizes (small to enterprise) and two distinct markets (Sri Lanka and the UK) effectively.
Research & Insights
A competitor benchmarking analysis was conducted using leading SaaS websites such as Workday, Acumatica, Unleashed Software, and abas-ERP. Secondary research helped identify user behaviors, pain points, and expectations for an ERP/CRM solution website.
User Personas & Pain Points:
Small Business Owners (BlueLotus360 Lite Target)
Struggled to find an affordable, easy-to-implement ERP system.
Needed a clear product breakdown with pricing details.
Wanted fast access to customer reviews and testimonials.
Mid-Sized & Enterprise Businesses (BlueLotus360 Pro & Acumatica ERP)
Looked for scalability and customization options.
Needed a way to schedule demos quickly and get detailed product insights.
Preferred content structured by industry and role to see tailored solutions.
IT & Finance Managers (Decision-makers in Enterprises)
Required detailed technical documentation and integration capabilities.
Sought case studies and data-backed proof of performance.
Key Insights from Research:
- Simplify the Information Architecture: The previous site structure was too broad. Competitors use mega menus to organize solutions by industry, business size, and user role.
- Trust Signals Matter: SaaS buyers prefer social proof (G2, Capterra ratings), case studies, and logos of well-known clients.
- Navigation & Accessibility: A country selector (Sri Lanka/UK) should be prominent, along with a persistent “Schedule a Demo” CTA.
Design Strategy & Solutions
The redesign focused on three core principles: Clarity, Credibility, and Conversion Optimization.
- Categorized products by business size (Lite, Pro, Acumatica) and industry solutions (Manufacturing, Construction, Retail, etc.).
- Each product page includes a short description within the dropdown to provide instant clarity.
- Users can toggle between Global, Sri Lanka, and UK versions of the site.
- Each version has tailored pricing models, contact details, and region-specific testimonials.

- Two CTAs: “Learn More” & “Schedule a Demo” to accommodate different user intents.
- Product Image Showcase aligned with industry best practices.
- 4.5/5 ratings from G2, Capterra, GetApp, Software Advice displayed prominently.
- Client Logos & Case Studies section to highlight real-world success stories.
