📝 More about this video:
In this in-depth guide, Serra from UserGuiding breaks down the distinct onboarding UX patterns, dissecting them beyond traditional classifications, and introducing you to our two-pronged classification: tour onboarding and contextual onboarding. Here’s a deeper look at the highlighted UX patterns:

Product Tours: An initial guide to introduce users to the product or a specific feature. Contrary to popular opinion, product tours can be extremely effective if kept concise and user-friendly. Take, for example, Canva's beginner-friendly tours that introduce users to their platform in an engaging way.

Self-segmentation: A technique widely recognized and used by platforms like Netflix and Mailchimp. Self-segmentation aims to tailor the user experience based on user preferences, ensuring a customized journey. Additionally, it aids in gathering precise data from segmented users, making it a must-have for SaaS businesses.

Checklists: Adding a touch of gamification, checklists help users understand features interactively. Checklists not only make the learning process engaging but also ensure users familiarize themselves with the product’s functionalities, just like UserGuiding's onboarding checklist.

Interactive Guides: Going a step beyond product tours, interactive guides are immersive and often gamified, facilitating users to interact with the product as they learn. These guides capitalize on muscle memory, ensuring users remember and effectively utilize features, illustrated by our in-app surveys feature guide.

Hotspots & Tooltips: These are subtle yet powerful tools. While tooltips offer quick tips within the UI, hotspots elevate their visibility with attention-grabbing blinking dots. They’re quintessential for contextual onboarding, ensuring that users aren’t overwhelmed, as demonstrated effectively by platforms like Zakeke and Duolingo.

Determine which onboarding patterns resonate most with your product and audience. Remember, the key isn't just to use these patterns but to strike the right balance, continuously testing and refining for the best user experience.
