Introducing a new Navigation Menu and a new Design System

After learning and evaluating the challenges our users face, LivePerson has simplified the navigation architecture to provide an easier user experience. 

This release includes the following enhancements:

• Streamlining Access to Frequently Used Applications: Reducing the number of clicks required to access commonly used applications.
• Mitigating Accidental Hovering in the Navbar: Preventing unintended menu expansion caused by accidental hovering.

What enhancements would affect the user experience?

Pin frequently used applications: The Agent Workspace and Manager Workspace were identified as the most frequently utilized applications, hence,these applications would now be pinned above all sections. 

Note: The mentioned applications will no longer be available through the original category they used to be available through (Engage). 

Labeled sections and applications

All categories and the pinned applications mentioned earlier will now be labeled, eliminating the need for users to remember which symbols correspond to them.

Menu behavioural change

The navbar won't expand when hovered over; instead, it will expand only when:

• One of the categories is clicked.
• The hamburger icon is clicked.

Menu structural change

The navbar categories order was changed, and now it is: Engage, Automate, Optimize, Manage.
