What is competitive landscape research?

Competitive landscape research in the context of user experience (UX) design refers to the comprehensive analysis and exploration of the broader environment in which a product or service operates. It involves examining the market, industry trends, and relevant external factors that can influence the design and performance of a digital product.

Benefits of landscape research

Informed strategy

Landscape research provides the foundation for an informed UX strategy. By comprehensively analysing the market, industry trends, and competitors, businesses gain valuable insights to gain an edge over their competitors. These insights are the building blocks of a strategic roadmap that guides product development and user experience enhancements.

Competitive advantage

Landscape research yields a competitive advantage. Understanding what others in your industry are doing, where they excel, and where they fall short allows you to position your product or service strategically. You can capitalise on market gaps, and create a distinct value proposition that resonates with users.

Risk mitigation

Landscape research serves as a crucial tool for risk mitigation. By identifying potential challenges and pitfalls in the competitive landscape, businesses can proactively address them. It can save businesses needing to redesign their products or retroactively adjust them based on market conditions.

Market positioning

Landscape research is instrumental in effective market positioning. Through an understanding of industry dynamics, you can position your product or service in a way that aligns with market demands and user expectations.
