Case Study: Sage rolls out a rebrand at scale in 30 minutes with Zeroheight

How Sage used zeroheight to go from the Wild West to Clear Design Principles

The customer, Sage, a provider of finance, HR, and payroll software, faced significant challenges with product consistency and efficiency due to the lack of a formal design system. Without clear guidelines, their large, distributed design team and frequent acquisitions led to misaligned user experiences and wasted time. They adopted the zeroheight platform to create a centralized and official design system to solve this.

By implementing zeroheight, Sage was able to quickly roll out a company-wide rebrand, a process that took only 30 minutes to update all their styleguides. The platform provided the necessary structure and integrations, allowing designers to focus on content rather than customization. The results were highly measurable, with the design system receiving over 1,500 visits in a two-week period, and it freed teams from redundant work, leading to a more consistent user experience and faster product development for Sage's customers.
