Serious UX helps one understand the users’ obvious needs and unsaid needs as well. This can set the products apart from the competition and addressing these needs in an innovative way.

Serious UX is the UX that makes business sense, makes money for your business, increases revenue through your product design, reduces cost, and/or manages risks. It creates a delightful experience for your users, engages them, and lets them seamlessly achieve the intended goals using your product.
So, serious UX actually starts by asking the right questions about your business goals. First of all, you need to know what you want to achieve — increased revenues, conversions, engagements, reduced costs, or reduced risk? Start at some point by measuring current metrics and then set business goals. Then it tries to achieve these goals by designing a great user experience.

Ever since the unlock phase began, the spending that had slowed down is resuming its pace. During the lockdown phase, many businesses paused the crucial decision making. Some even shelved their plans to upgrade the products due to the uncertainty.
These businesses are now falling behind. The businesses that saw the lockdown as an opportunity and worked through this lean period, have the upgraded products ready. Products that are more relevant to the consumers of today and to their changed behavior, preferences. User research can help us understand the shifts in consumer behavior for better-aligned products.
