After analyzing the hueristic evaluation report we've been received by our associate group, we've realized that still there are certain areas to be concerned with. Eventually we created our final implemented web portal by fixing those issues.

Severity
(High/
Medium/ Low) and Justification
for giving it that rating

Way(s) to rectify and any Tradeoffs (i.e., why
the fix might not work)

Action taken and Justification

1
|
Consistency
and standards
|
The user misunderstands the icon
as a link redirecting to another page.
|
In the Home page
|
Medium
|
The icon can be removed or can
be change to another icon
|
We removed the symbol like stated
here and now it doesn’t exist anymore.
|
|
|
2
|
Visibility
of system status
|
The user can’t clearly identify
the Home page of the web site because of the small welcome message.
|
In the
Home page
|
Medium
|
Make
the welcome message highlighted by changing the font sizes and colors
|
As
mentioned we changed the welcome message in to a more visible font size using
two color combinations.
|
|
|

|
Consistency
|
Inconsistent placement of “Search
Icon” It is not efficient to have the search icon on the left side of the
search bar.
|
Every
page of the web site
|
Medium
|
Change
the search icon position to the right side of the search bar
|
Instead
of having the search icon at the right hand side, we added a go symbol at the
right hand of the search bar.

Flexibility and efficiency of use
|
Text
colors are not clearly visible to the user
|
In
Contact us page
|
Medium
|
Make
text colors different than the background colors
|
We
added a color which is not similar to the background color in the contact
page
|

|
Flexibility and efficiency of use
|
Color
combination is not good enough. It disturbs the user interaction with the web
site.
|
In the
Home Page
|
Medium
|
Use
simple, attractive and matching colors
|
Instead
of having different colors in the home page, we just limited that in to ocean
blue and white colors.
