Great examples of a Features page
SOLVEMay 31, 2017 8:40 AM
Hey Everyone, I'm wondering if you can share your favorite features pages with me? I'm doing a bit of R&D for our site alongside.com. Looking to overhaul our Features page to be more user-friendly. Please share your favorites with me. I'd appreciate it. Oh, and if they are HubSpot hosted, that'd be wonderful. Cheers! Em

Hi @ebrennan,
Feature page design is pretty important since it can be the lasting impression needed for you to close a sale. HubSpot put out this blog post last October that lists some great examples!
Personally, I like feature pages to be simple with as little 'interaction' needed as possible. Some examples of the interaction I dislike are tabbers, slideshows, modals, etc. Your product/features page should lay out all the benefits in one simple layout, people shouldn't have to work to find out what your software can do! 🙂
These are some of my favorite ones (in no particular order) that I've come across:
- Wistia: I really like how they use gifs to show product features. A gif says more about a product than just a line of text that says "change the color of your video player".
- Intercom: Being an illustrator, I absolutely love how they built a branding around quirky character illustrations. On their feature(s) page, they include a lot of gif/videos that play showing you how the product works, but they also use a lot of dynamic effects. Some of these effects are triggered on scroll, so it feels like your reading an interactive story and less of just a bullet list.
- GitHub: Let me preface this by saying the design isn't jaw-dropping. What I do like is that they include a secondary nav that helps you navigate the page quickly and efficiently. If I want to know the features that come with 'docs', I just click a button, etc.
- Heroku: Heroku has many different options, but all the feature pages for each one follow the same sort of style. They are short, open and utilize video to tell you about the product, rather than a wall of text.
- Box: Box utilizes a card-based layout for their sections, this helps keep the page readable and clean.
- Wishpond: Has a clean and light page design. They utilize negative space and a card-layout to help keep their products organized.
Hopefully this list can get you started! Overall, I think a feature page will be effective if it's clear, readable and has a definitive action associated to it (ie: get a demo, sign up, etc). One thing I see a lot of people not doing is utilizing a page like this for lead gen. Giving a user a definitive action could be the tipping point to closing a sale, and you don't want want to miss out on something like that!
Looking forward to seeing this conversation take off!
