The why
The why
Atlassian's platform pages — the storefronts for Jira, Confluence, and Github.. — had unclear messaging, inconsistent navigation, and an 80% bounce rate. With significant monthly visitor volume, this created a significant revenue gap.
High bounce rate (80%) on critical landing pages.
Inconsistent navigation across product pages.
Unclear value proposition for key products.
Missed conversion opportunities.

What we learned
What we learned
Key Findings (Pain Points)
Unclear Value → 60% Drop-off Before Pricing
Prospects couldn’t see how platform solved their problems or what it cost, so they abandoned the page before even exploring pricing tiers.
Undefined Audience → 30% Disengagement
Visitors were unsure if platform was for admins, champions, or executives—leading each group to bounce when they didn’t see role-specific messaging.Hidden CTAs → 70% Scrolling Without Converting
With primary CTAs buried below the fold and styled like links, most users scrolled endlessly without ever scheduling a demo.

Design Process

Aligned Personas & Assumptions
Ran a 2-hour workshop to define our three core enterprise personas—admins, champions, leaders—cutting research ambiguity.
Targeted Research
Conducted 13 user interviews and leveraged heatmaps, scroll-depth, and click tracking to validate navigation and messaging gaps.Data-Driven Wireframes
Partnered with content design to restructure page hierarchy, prioritized CTAs based on click-through data.
Attractiveness Analysis
To measure the success of the redesign, I used attractiveness analysis—assessing how visually appealing and engaging each element was for users. This helped determine whether the updated layout effectively captured and retained their interest.
Before the Redesign
The original hero section prioritized an embedded signup form, overshadowing the product shot. While functional, it didn’t draw users into the product visuals, reducing the overall appeal of the hero section.Engagement Rate Analysis
To gauge the redesign’s effectiveness, I analyzed engagement rates—tracking how users interacted with core elements on the page before and after the update. This metric revealed whether the new layout successfully captured user interest and encouraged deeper interaction.
Before the Redesign: While the original hero section’s embedded signup form had a high click rate, the product shot and other key information saw minimal engagement. This indicated that users were focused on signing up but missing valuable details about the product.

From the research, three themes stood out: users weren’t sure what the platform offered, CTAs were buried, and there weren’t enough trust signals. Here’s how I turned those insights into design changes that moved metrics.
