6 ways the new maxon website enhances your experience
maxon develops drives that are among the best in the world. We advance technologies that save lives on Earth, make driving and flying safer, and enable the use of robots in space. Where uncompromising precision and the highest quality standards are crucial for success, our drive systems show what they are made of.
Complexity is not a foreign concept for maxon, but rather part of our daily business. Our commitment to quality, precision, and the best service also applies to our website, we continuously optimize it for user-friendliness.
Analysis comes first
As with the development of a new maxon precision drive, a comprehensive requirement analysis was also completed at the beginning of this project. We knew we needed to understand the needs of users today and in the future, and the different user behaviors around the globe to create a tailored customer experience. Our first step was to better understand the technical requirements, the entire customer journey and the technical environment. This was done through internal and external customer interviews and focus groups.
Prototypes, tests, and configurations lead to results
Based on our analysis, a new digital communication architecture was created that meets all requirements: our strategic goals, the high complexity of our broad product portfolio, as well as the market- and country-specific behaviors and needs of our customers.
We have restructured our Business Unit (Medical Technology, Industrial Automation, Mobility Solutions, and Aerospace) pages as well as the products and the maxon Group information.
In total, over 4,000 new content pages were created – the new site is secured according to the latest standards, SEO-optimized, responsive, and barrier-free.
