UX design: 101.

Some years ago not many people understood the importance of usability and a good experience for the user. Nowadays, the term “UX” has become mainstream. Everybody understands that those two letters are very popular and probably important, even if they are not so sure what UX really means. Are you also not sure about what UX is and what it can do for your product or service? We will break down this topic for you in a series of lab posts.

Go-live time (6)

Last issue of this year’s “go-live time” series! The “high reporting season” is pretty much over although obviously there will be a few more reports coming up. Not to the same extent that we experienced over the last few months though. In the end it has sure been a tough season but every bit as exciting and rewarding as always!

Go-live time (5)

Easter “break” is over… and a few more online reports have been successfully published! Instead of chasing Easter eggs we’ve been very focused and the results speak for themselves. The reporting high season will come to an end soon and we’ll be left with that weird feeling of self-accomplishment but also oddly enough missing the current hustle and bustle!

Stage animations.

Moving images are increasingly becoming the tool of choice to breathe new life into corporate websites. Header videos or animations can attract the attention of your stakeholders or can be impressively representative of a company’s performance. A smart use of header videos or animations draws a lot of attention from the beginning as they are the first thing the visitor sees. As the old saying goes, you can only make a first impression once! Furthermore, they can be a useful tool to preview stories or specific sections in a digital report that companies want to showcase.

Video Message from the CEO.

Numerous studies show how important a strong appearance is – both internally and externally. Stakeholders associate CEOs directly with the business success of a company. In times of crisis, CEOs with a good reputation are given more confidence. Also, the acquisition of shares is decided by many shareholders – among other factors – based on the image of the top management. CEO videos are furthermore a statement of appreciation for an annual report and its readers.

Go-live time (4).

And yet another week went by at nexxar! Somehow the end of the high reporting season is looming over but we still feel like we barely got started. It’s always a funny feeling. In the end it has been an extremely prolific week indeed as we’re still at full throttle. Needless to say, there’s a few more reports coming up so keep watching this space!

And another week has passed! Time sure flies when it’s high reporting season. The week of course hasn’t been challenge-free but at nexxar we know that comes with the package. Here’s a breakdown of this week’s reports. Stay tuned as there will be more.
