Experience Design
Each business issue has a need, and where there is a need, there is a human being. Experience design employs design-thinking methodology to address human needs to create fundamentally relevant and exceptional solutions. By adopting a human-centered approach to creating meaningful experiences and processes across the enterprise, businesses are realizing higher customer engagement, significant time efficiency improvement, and rapid return on investment.
Research
Before solving problems, companies must first identify what problems exist, and then synthesize data to uncover insights into why they exist. Research uncovers root causes and identifies areas of opportunity to ensure businesses produce value for users. Outputs take the form of insight reports and strategic recommendations. SoftServe distinguishes two areas of research: user research and experience assessments.
Benefits

- Reduce the risk of creating undesirable solutions
- Articulate business goals that may affect features and product deployment strategies
- Understand and document user needs
Strategy
Design strategy produces a vision of a solution to be validated with actual potential users to prove market viability, answering: what problem is the product solving, what are the business goals, and why is the solution needed? By approaching opportunities with a design-first mindset, companies can accelerate delivery of innovative solutions to differentiate in-market. SoftServe’s design strategy includes design vision, experience planning, and extended reality (XR) strategy.

Service Design
Service design increases value and reveals opportunities to optimize experiences across multiple touchpoints through a holistic understanding of complex systems and processes behind the enterprise.
