Problem Statement
The objective of a software and hardware recommendation tool is to assist users in identifying the best products that match their specific requirements. This might involve suggesting particular software or hardware, or offering general advice on what to consider when choosing a product. The aim is to equip users with the knowledge necessary to make well-informed decisions about the products they select.

Scope Of Work & Timeline
I started the assignment to identify and effectively improve problems through UX research and analysis
User Research
Its done to address the full range of perspective required to understand the user needs.
User Experience Design
I worked on the User flow & personas in order to have best user experience.

Visual Design
Worked on the interface designs for the application including prototype.

User Research
I interviewed 120 users by creating a WhatsApp group to understand how they search for software and hardware before making a purchase. I also discovered their frustrations with navigating various websites and articles, which often leaves them feeling even more confused.
Responses Of Survey:
How do you search for the best site for the softwares and hardwares?

What is the most difficult part while searching for the desired software and hardware device?

How often do you look for buying softwares and hardwares?

Do you recommend after you purchased softwares & hardwares devices to your friends?

Competitive Analysis
