What is Userlane?

The technology developed by Userlane is designed to guide users through software like a GPS turn-by-turn navigation system. The vendor says this allows every user to operate even complex software on a professional level without any learning curve.

Userlane includes interactive step-by-step guides, which can be implemented on top of every existing web-based software or e-commerce website. These interactive guides lead every user through all processes and show them live within the software where to click next - just like the GPS navigation system in cars offers its driver turn-by-turn advice how to optimally reach his or her destination.

Unlike video tutorials, the Userlane technology is integrated into the software. Users receive interactive guidance, while they are already working in the application itself. The vendor says this allows companies to improve their onboarding experience, reduce support and employee training costs and implement new software products more efficiently.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We work with Userlane across several applications to reduce the friction our employees experience with complex workflows. We had launched a new application and realized that despite the effort we had put into training our users, most people were still using the previous "old" application which made it impossible for us to sunset it at the date we had planned. Userlane helped us improve the experience on the new application and we were able to get people to accept and actively use the new application within a few weeks. This helped us cut the cost of running two systems in parallel. Additionally, we also received positive feedback on the Userlane assistance from our users.

Pros

  • Stellar user experience - best one we saw in our vendor comparison.
  • Fast to setup and easy to maintain.
  • Great support and advice, very pleasant interactions.
  • Easy to scale across multiple applications.

Cons

  • Currently only for web-based applications.
  • Some vendors have a lower price point.

Most Important Features

  • Interactive Guides & tooltips
  • Assistant widget with integration to knowledgebase and support
  • Usage analytics

Return on Investment

  • High ROI as we could finally sunset an old app and migrate all users to the new one.
  • Support tickets have significantly gone down and we could reduce call-center cost.
  • Positive user feedback has been great to motivate the team.
