Reflecting Kofax’s Evolution in a Web Redesign

Tendo re-imagined and re-organized Kofax’s website to reflect the company’s growth and to make its complex product hierarchy more accessible.

Tendo re-imagined and re-organized Kofax’s website to reflect the company’s growth and to make its complex product hierarchy more accessible.

The challenge: Kofax, a pioneer in intelligent automation, had a complex product lineup and a website that did not capture its evolving brand story. Kofax needed a partner to restructure its digital presence, create an improved user experience, and simplify access to its diverse array of services.

The solution: Tendo developed a new, multi-level website navigation framework, 30+ website modules, and a website design system to be implemented in the Sitecore CMS. The site garnered acclaim at the 2021 W3 Awards.

CHALLENGES
  • Existing site was outdated and overloaded

About Cisco

Cisco sells hardware, software, and service offerings that make networks possible.

It offers products and solutions in routing, switching, home networking security, storage area networking, and more.

Cisco needed to ensure users could quickly and easily find information on cisco.com. Goals included an increase in overall traffic to the site, doubling visitor engagement with content, boosting lead generation, and decreasing costs and resources needed to maintain the site.

Cisco
San Francisco, CA
Networking and security
79,500 employees

The Challenge

The existing site was outdated and overloaded, and most stakeholders didn’t have a stated purpose or goal for the site.

Pages were glorified data sheets and the site was seen as a nice-to-have rather than a powerful tool to fulfill business needs. The project became a forcing function to uncover friction points in how products were sold—and the journey customers took to get there.

The Solution

Tendo took the following approach to improve the site’s information architecture and key webpages:
  • Conducted in-depth research and architected a content framework that could easily be expanded and maintained across the entire site
  • Carried out a current state analysis, as well as competitive and best-in-class reviews
  • Interviewed key stakeholders and target audience members
  • Developed a content architecture and replicable, scalable content models—that included organization, prioritization, and copy specs—across key page types

The Results

0

Increase in unique visitors

0

Increase in task completion

0

Increase in click-through rate

After the redesign, Cisco.com saw a 15% increase in unique visitors, a 13% increase in task completion, a 68% increase in click-through rate, and a 32% increase in “contact us” clicks. After metrics validated the work, Cisco built a design system of plug-and-play components based on our content framework and scaled it across all business units.

About Keysight

Keysight is a measurement equipment and software company that supports a range of industries, from finance and automotive to healthcare.

Its thousands of products and services include network taps, bypass switches, and wireless network emulators. By providing access to and insights about the latest technologies, Keysight helps customers accelerate innovation, while keeping the world connected and secure.

Keysight Technologies
Santa Rosa, CA
Electronics
15,000 employees

The Challenge

In recent years, Keysight has made several acquisitions.

Acquired companies include Ixia, Scalable Networks, Nordsys, Eggplant, and Cliosoft. Each newly acquired company comes with its own content, which has to be adapted to the Keysight story and website.

Complicating the process, Keysight and its acquisitions often have duplicate content and distinct branding. Keysight needed a partner to support integration efforts, meet tight timelines, and preserve the content’s value.

The Solution

Tendo serves as Keysight’s go-to integration partner for acquisitions.

We typically audits existing URLs and assets to determine which content to migrate. We then recommend a unified IA and map content to Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) templates. For new pages, we complete stakeholder intake, editorial QA, and content updates.

We also rebrand assets and migrate them to AEM, applying proper tags and metadata. At each stage, Tendo manages stakeholder review and tracks progress with dashboards.

The Results

0

Pages migrated from Ixia alone

0

Videos migrated in just one project

0

Reduction in pages after audit

All pages and assets from acquired companies are fully integrated into AEM under unified branding, presenting each acquisition as a seamless part of Keysight.

As Keysight’s content management partner for five years, Tendo uses our expertise to create Keysight-specific editorial guidance. Our new page/content migration checklist and AEM author guide help simplify long-term management processes.

Crowe LLP

Public accounting and consulting services
4,300 U.S. employees

The Challenge

Like other top public accounting firms, Crowe prioritizes high-quality thought leadership content to engage and educate its audiences.

In 2022, the firm recognized the need for a content strategy refresh. To meet aggressive revenue goals for its Audit, Tax, and Digital Transformation business units, Crowe needed to increase brand awareness. But before it embarked on creating new content and campaigns, Crowe wisely sought to audit its existing content—to determine its strengths, gaps, and alignment with business priorities.

The Solution

Tendo recommended a content audit using our proprietary content scorecard methodology.

Our content strategists evaluated hundreds of articles, blog posts, reports, guidebooks, and videos from both Crowe and its key competitors. We scored content via quantitative factors (pageviews, bounce rate, SEO page authority, etc.) and qualitative criteria (content consistency, effectiveness, discoverability, etc.). The qualitative assessment also captured key attributes such as target audience, content type, journey stage, topic, industry, and so forth.

The Results

0

Crowe and competitor URLs reviewed

0

Content gaps discovered

0

Content recommendations shared

This comprehensive approach revealed a wealth of actionable insights on content quality and performance. For example, Crowe content scored high on brand consistency and effectiveness. But the scorecard revealed numerous content gaps and opportunities, such as the need for a greater diversity of content types and topics, as well as more content focused on certain audiences. Based on these findings, Tendo developed dozens of content recommendations that laid the groundwork for Crowe’s 2022 content strategy roadmap.

A Taxonomy for Dynamic Content Personalization

Tendo helped Salesforce optimize taxonomy and tagging strategy to enable personalized content for more conversions and increased loyalty.

Salesforce Company Logo on Building
CHALLENGES
  • Different taxonomies being managed in multiple systems
  • Inconsistent use of tags
  • No consolidated, enterprise-wide taxonomy or governance roadmap
RESULTS
  • An organized and consistent taxonomy
  • Governance framework for long-term management
  • 750 assets consistently tagged and ready to be surfaced

About Salesforce

Salesforce makes CRM software that empowers companies of every size and industry.

It gives them a complete 360° view of their customers everywhere they interact with the company, enabling a better customer experience.

Salesforce wanted to facilitate personalized content delivery on its website for richer user experiences and deeper customer relationships—but they needed a solid back-end taxonomy and a tagging strategy to serve up the right content.

Salesforce
San Francisco, CA
Enterprise CRM software
78,000 employees

The Challenge

Several different taxonomies were being managed in multiple systems.

Primary tags had been created in Adobe Experience Manager but had only been applied to some content and were largely used for filtering. The digital content strategy team needed a consolidated, enterprise-wide, user-friendly taxonomy with a clear roadmap for long-term management and governance. This would allow for consistent tagging, which is essential for effective personalization.

The Solution

Tendo took the following approach to facilitating content personalization:
  • Researched end-user priorities and validated current taxonomy structure with stakeholders
  • Audited existing taxonomy structures and their use
  • Defined pilot personalization use cases and rules and prioritized content attributes
  • Reviewed and recommended taxonomy management tools
  • Mapped workflows and developed taxonomy governance framework
  • Recommended reorganization of namespaces and categories

The Results

“Tendo corrected course for us and showed us that while we had the proper tags, many were organized incorrectly. We now have more than 750 assets consistently tagged and ready to be surfaced across our website using simple business rules. Tendo also helped establish best practices for tagging, which allows various parties to tag content similarly.”

Tendo helped our client, an enterprise software provider, pivot their SEO strategy to adapt to an evolving AI-influenced search landscape.

The challenge: Our client, a B2B enterprise business, had a robust body of product documentation that had experienced a decline in organic search traffic. The client asked Tendo to assess their site’s current organic search performance and ascertain how content is being found in an evolving AI-influenced SERP landscape and how this would impact traffic in the future.

The solution: Tendo explored changes in AI-powered search and user search behaviors to inform the client’s future documentation search and content strategy. Tasks included:

  • Current state analysis
  • First-person user research
  • Third-party research on AI search trends
  • SEO keyword audit

The Challenge

Ecolab wanted to increase digital sales and strengthen critical relationships with its broadline food distributors—such as Sysco and US Foods—and their co-branded products.

To meet this challenge, Ecolab needed to strengthen the public face of the co-brands, and to give distributor sales teams better digital tools and resources.

The Solution

Tendo reimagined and rebuilt a set of six co-branded product-based sites, each with their own logged-in set of tools and resources.

We developed a detailed multi-year digital strategy plan for how to drive increased sales for Ecolab, and we relaunched six websites that pull data from multiple product catalogs; these sites integrated multiple SSO sources tied with a complex permissioning and personalization structure all implemented on the Sitecore.

The Results

The new sales tools leveraged sales and customer data to help the distributor sales rep better target and execute sales of the co-branded products. The new public-facing websites drove sales leads and customer inquiries as well.

Adobe Marketing Cloud Editorial Strategy

Tendo developed a strategic content marketing approach to help Adobe increase relevance, scale, and compete.

CHALLENGES
  • Inconsistency in content quality, volume, and relevance
  • Lack of clear content development process
  • Restrictive content gating policy
RESULTS
  • Creation of diverse, relevant content supporting the buyer’s journey
  • A scalable model to develop industry-specific content

About Adobe

Adobe’s Marketing Cloud is an integrated, digital solution, enabling marketers to optimize campaigns and digital experiences.

To excel in this fiercely competitive category, Adobe needed to evolve its approach to its Marketing Cloud content. Inconsistent quality and volume, with too broad a focus, or limited to specific products, hindered an in-depth exploration of industry concerns and called into question Adobe’s commitment to key industries and trends.

Adobe
San Jose, CA
Software development
25,988 employees

The Challenge

As the Tendo team immersed in Adobe and its content, we discovered opportunities for improvement:

Some Adobe marketers excelled at content, others floundered without support; a lack of clear process; a content mix skewed towards one asset type; and a restrictive gating strategy, among others. In short, while Adobe was doing many things right, to get to the next level, it needed a plan with a capital P.

The Solution

Tendo’s approach included crafting the following:
  • A content marketing strategy—a blueprint for creating diverse, relevant, industry-specific content across the buyer’s journey
  • A scalable approach for content planning, themes, types, distribution, and measurement
  • A content development process with insourced, outsourced, and hybrid options
  • An editorial strategy that aligned and intersected business trends with industry-specific challenges

The Results

Adobe now produces a more compelling mix of videos, case studies, and first-person perspectives from Adobe experts, addressing specific industries and business trends with increased accessibility on Adobe.com. By evolving its approach, Adobe was able to sharpen how it markets to marketers, meeting the needs of a highly sophisticated audience, in a category that gets more competitive every day.

Tendo created a high-value assessment and ecosystem of content to help educate Blackboard’s audience and convert leads.

CHALLENGES
  • Lack of brand awareness in the professional arena
  • Disengaged buyer audience with lack of quality leads

About Blackboard

Blackboard (now part of Anthology) is a category leader in learning management systems (LSM) for educational markets.

Despite the ability of Blackboard’s learning environment to educate and train employees online, Blackboard was not well-known in the professional arena. While it sells solutions to corporations and government agencies, many already had a solution in place.

Blackboard
Boca Raton, FL
Educational technology
3,600 employees

The Challenge

Blackboard’s Professional Education marketing team needed to drive leads.

But Blackboard’s lack of awareness in the category put it at a distinct disadvantage. They first needed to engage the audience in a meaningful way, and tell the Blackboard story. How could Blackboard break through the clutter to build a compelling case and demonstrate its value to the industry? We started, as we always do, by examining the buyer.

The Solution

Tendo conducted interviews with customers and subject matter experts to gather insights and develop a strategy:

By assessing the potential benefits of what a world-class learning management system could provide, buyers would be curious to discover how they might best achieve them. The result was an integrated campaign, anchored by a gated interactive eBook with factoids and best practices, and a 20-question assessment with personalized recommendations.

The Results

We included in the eBook-centered campaign an ecosystem of content, including an infographic, social media posts, emails, online advertisements, and blog posts. The bottom line: The campaign was a resounding success. Though the initial goal was to generate 200 leads over the life of the campaign, the ebook generated more than 400 leads in one month, greatly exceeding Blackboard’s expectations.

LPL Financial

The Challenge

LPL Financial needed to provide its internal and external users with the right content in the right context.

The existing system yielded duplicate content across multiple platforms, impeding users from easily accessing the assets they needed.

Tendo’s task was to develop a foundation for the emerging Content Hub that would house content independent of end-user platform. We also needed to streamline the process for creating and managing digital content.

The Solution

Tendo developed requirements for a centralized repository of information.

We outlined how content could be created once and then repurposed for multiple audiences and systems.

We surveyed internal users to discover their needs and preferences, and used these results to inform the information architecture and taxonomy. Then we established guidelines for content distribution so that users could easily find the right content at the right time.

The Results

Tendo implemented a structured approach that:

  • Standardized nomenclature and structure
  • Enabled content to be easily reused via a content hub and tagging system
  • Improved search results–Reduced costs by streamlining processes

“I cannot speak highly enough of the partnership you’ve demonstrated throughout this experience. And I know the LPL Team here will continue to benefit.”

About Sodexo

Sodexo Universities is a leader in campus dining and facilities management for public universities and private colleges.

It sought to engage its audience, university leadership, in a new way. Already well-known for its food services, Sodexo had an opportunity to share its point of view about its robust offering around a bundle of quality-of-life services for students and staff. The idea was to strengthen awareness of these solutions and connect with university leadership beyond food and facilities.

Sodexo
Gaithersburg, MD
Food and facilities management services

The Challenge

Sodexo needed to position itself as a thought leader on higher education and campus life.

To accomplish this, Sodexo wanted to create a global report on key trends affecting the student journey and campus experience. Tendo helped Sodexo refine its marketing goals, and uncovered the need for an anchor asset that would drive brand awareness, brand education, and sales enablement via an integrated content campaign spanning multiple channels.

The Solution

Tendo led a complex and collaborative effort to:
  • Create an Editorial Advisory Committee in tandem with the Sodexo Institute for Quality of Life, an in-house think tank, to identify and profile five global education trends.
  • Interview 11 world-class education experts.
  • Create a 32-page print and digital Sodexo University Trends Report.
  • Translate the text into a wide range of content formats—blog posts, social posts, emails, videos, and infographics.

The Results

The report generated immediate buzz and helped Sodexo’s sales teams expand relationships with existing and new university accounts. Sodexo shined a light on major changes in higher education and universities’ role in preparing students for a complex world. And it continues to leverage this trend report in industry publications, conferences, trade shows, social media, and sales conversations.

Autodesk makes design software for use in the architecture, engineering, and construction industries.

Products like AutoCAD and Revit help makers design and build everything from cars to skyscrapers. Autodesk’s industry-leading software is available to students and educators in fields such as design, architecture, and engineering. Its software can be accessed through the Autodesk Education program and its associated website, which is run and maintained by the Autodesk Education team.

Autodesk
San Francisco, CA
Design software
10,000 employees

The Challenge

In the past, Autodesk did not require verification for educational users–anyone could get free access.

Autodesk Education planned to introduce a process to verify genuine educational users. Sign-up forms are a key friction point, especially when a process spans multiple touchpoints. The new process had to be clear and navigable and maintain the brand experience while introducing additional steps and showcasing the benefits of educational access.

The Solution

Tendo conducted a comprehensive review of UX content in the sign-up and verification process.

We then developed options for program names, messaging, and standard key terms. Finally, we updated and optimized UX copy, including banners, form copy, success messages, and transactional emails. In our review process, we identified key gaps and inconsistencies, as well as places where Autodesk could remind a user of the benefits of an educational membership.  

The Results

The final UX copy and user journey is clear, consistent, and purposeful in its tone and messaging. The new, consistent content experience goes beyond easing the pain of transitioning to a complex system: It also maintains Autodesk’s position as a trusted academic partner, fostering brand affinity that lasts after students graduate and continues as they begin their careers.

CA Technologies, now a subsidiary of Broadcom Inc., manages, monitors, and secures computer infrastructure across mainframe, distributed, and cloud computing.

Despite a recent redesign and a high number of net-new visits per year (4.5 million), 86% of visitors to ca.com never returned—the industry benchmark is 54%. The site was disorganized and bloated (23,000 pages) as a result of company acquisitions, and it was focused more on products than customer needs.

CA Technologies
San Jose, CA
Enterprise software development
10,000+ employees

The Challenge

CA Technologies needed to reduce drop-offs and increase repeat visits from its target audiences.

But the strategic priority was to create a user-centric destination of discovery that could increase and accelerate conversions, consideration, and sales. CA asked Tendo to create the content blueprint and plan to help get them there, starting with a pilot that focused on the API Management section of Ca.com.

The Solution

Tendo took the following approach to overhaul the user experience:
  • Evaluated web pages for metrics, navigation, UX, voice, and user journey
  • Conducted a qualitative audit of 130 assets
  • Charted numerous user flows to ensure streamlined and logical access to key information
  • Developed a content strategy and roadmap to answer:
    – What content should go on the site
    – How it should be presented
    – How users would experience it
    – Which assets aligned to user journeys

The Results

A streamlined information and content architecture align with the customer journey, design and content are in harmony, and revised content assets live at the appropriate site level.

“Tendo had the specialized content and UX skill sets and knowledge I was looking for. They did a stellar job on a complex and challenging project. I highly recommend them.”

The Challenge

Central 1 needed an adaptable online banking and marketing website platform.

Central 1 needed a flexible digital experience platform (encompassing public/marketing websites and online banking) that was adaptable to a multitude of credit unions, each with distinct brand and service offerings.

The platform required seamless alignment with Backbase’s multifaceted use cases and a unified design framework to support the diverse credit union landscape. In addition, Central 1 needed to help credit unions easily create their own public-facing websites for marketing purposes.

The Challenge

VTS was struggling with low lead generation, complex marketing strategies, and a website structure that inadequately showed its diverse brand solutions.

These issues demanded a thoughtful examination to surface specific pain points hindering growth. The main objectives were to revamp the digital strategy, refine brand guidelines, and effectively communicate the company’s offerings.
