Hyland Community Idea Portal

User Experience Research & Design
Hyland Community

THE PRODUCT

I had the opportunity to conceptualize an idea portal for Hyland's Community website. The goal of website is to foster communication and serve as a centralized support center for customers. The idea portal was an additional section added to the site. 

THE WEBSITE

The idea portal allows customers to create ideas and vote on other users proposals. The concept was first sketched, wireframed, and then digitally illustrated.
