PowerSteering v. 11

Upland Software purchased 6 different companies in 2011 and 2012. I along with designers and product managers was assigned the task of designing a common User Interface for all the Upland family applications.

Goals

Consistent look and feel for the header and navigation sections. Content would vary in the center content section, but adhere to a general style guide
Use 100% of the screen width for better display of tables
Move navigation to the left and top of the page to enhance visibility and expose all commands
Personalize the log-in details
Update existing content to the new style guide

PowerSteering v. 9

When I started at PowerSteering this design was in place. I maintained this design until v. 11 that was released in 2014.

Fixed width that did not take advantage of wide screen displays
Icon-based horizontal navigation with similar icons and hidden sub-menus
Work-arounds to display large tables full-screen, but at the sacrifice of navigation access
