Ask HN: Which SaaS apps have the best UI? I spend most of my time in a bubble of Google Analytics, Visual Website Optimizer, and Basecamp. But I'm building a side-project and I want to get some design inspiration from new & shiny apps that I might not have been exposed to. Which SaaS web apps that you use have the best user interfaces? |
Also I'd recommend checking out LeanStack.io (http://leanstack.io) which has a great list of SaaS companies. You might find some inspiration there.
Basecamp probably has the best UI I've used for a SaaS project.
We put a lot of thought into it and sourced the best design talent we could find. Originally, we were going to go with a totally flat design, but ended up with a hybrid approach. We found that a semi-flat design improved usability in our early tests with customers.
