How PurelyHR powered up their onboarding with Userflow

Jeremie Doiron
User Experience & Interaction Design Lead

Looking to better onboard customers

Jeremie Doiron, User Experience & Interaction Design lead at PurelyHR was looking for a better way to convert their free trials as well as to onboard customers who had already purchased their product. Initially, they tried to build checklists and guides themselves., They quickly discovered how difficult it is to make a nice, user-friendly experience, and even more difficult to maintain. Developers always had higher priority features to work on and small text/guide iterations were not a top priority. They were seeing a high percentage of lead drop-offs before having the chance to guide them through the set-up process.

Evaluated 8 different providers and chose Userflow

Jeremie knew that they needed to do something else, and therefore he decided to look for 3rd party tools to solve the problem. He looked at 8 different providers, but most of them were hard to use or were not able to build guides and checklists that looked nice inside the PurelyHR application. After an exhaustive review, Jeremie finally found Userflow and was amazed from day 1.

Userflow makes it easy to do the hard things

Jeremie instantly could see that Userflow was better. First of all, it had the best UX, making it easy to use, while still offering advanced functionality. One of the capabilities that Jeremie liked a lot was the ability to change the look and feel of the guides to look like something that was an integrated part of PurelyHR. He could do this without using a single line of code or involving developers.

"Userflow allows me to customize the tooltips and checklists to fit perfectly within our application. It also makes it possible to iterate on our onboarding flows without involving engineers."
