I enjoy everything technological and I often find myself scrolling through the latest developments in AI, cybersecurity, and software development. Thanks to our world's uber connectivity, I am typically introduced to an IT brand through its website. As such, it's important that these sites have a fun and engaging online presence so I can easily explore their products or services.
Other important elements I look for are seamless navigation tools, product FAQs, and customer reviews to get a holistic overview of the company. I've reviewed five websites that accomplish these essential goals, and if you're looking to create one of your own, try our IT AI website builder.
Zarla checks that sites meet basic web standards for mobile and desktop. We also use Google's PageSpeed Insights, and WAVE, a service that evaluates accessibility for individuals with disabilities. PageSpeed scores and accessibility are important factors for search engine rankings. PageSpeed scores may not match user experience and can vary substantially.

Leonardo.Ai is an AI-powered generator that allows users to create art, images, and videos. This website is one of the more compelling examples I came across, thanks to its elegant color palette and the inclusion of AI-generated images that effectively advertise the tool's high-quality and interesting visuals.
I enjoyed reading up about the platform's capabilities and how creators, teams, and developers alike can utilize the tool to create branded content and/or edit existing portfolios. I also liked that users can sign into the platform via the "Launch App" CTA button or download the app for a mobile-first experience.
I enjoyed perusing the platform's services and exploring its different "generator" features, which were intuitive and presented no learning curve. WAVE picked up no contrast errors on the home page, which is indicative of an optimal reading experience.
While I could not find much to dislike about this website, some of the image elements did take a long time to load on both desktop and mobile. I also noticed the lack of an "About" page, which would have been beneficial for users wanting to learn more about the company's origin and team members.
I found the desktop website both visually engaging and easily digestible with a good balance between content and images. While the platform is great on paper, I do think it's missing certain key elements that would enhance the overall user experience, including a comprehensive "About" section and additional video content expanding on the AI-powered generation processes.
The home page's performance scored 75/100 on Google's PageSpeed Insights test, which also noted optimal SEO and accessibility practices.
The mobile website has a similar look to the desktop version, but its home page is less impactful due to a slightly pixelated hero image. I liked that all CTA buttons remain prominent on the smaller screen and the "Launch App" process is intuitive. However, I think the company's logo could be enlarged slightly to stand out more in the top menu bar. On Google's PageSpeed Insights test, the home page was awarded a performance score of 41/100.

Spiria is a software company that specializes in app modernization, digital acceleration, and co-development services. I liked the website's use of a dark color palette and contemporary graphics and how it creates a professional-looking appeal at first glance. I also enjoyed perusing the "Our Work" section to gain a better understanding of the platform's services and industry partners.
A feature that stood out to me was the French language translation tool, which aids bilingual users in accessing the site. I also found the online contact form easy to use, but in my opinion, the website lacks certain elements that would create a better user experience, such as an FAQ section or video content.
I liked the website's content-rich "About Us" page as it gave me a good overview of the company, and I found the video of one of its corporate retreats to be a light-hearted addition to the page. Most site pages, including the home page, have low contrast error rates on WAVE.
The website features third-party customer reviews on specific pages, but I think it would be beneficial to add these comments to a "Reviews" page to ensure readers can easily access the content. I also found the visual elements to be lacking, and the inclusion of more video content would improve the site's overall aesthetic.
I found the desktop website easy to navigate and I liked the addition of various "Learn More" buttons on the home page, as it condensed the content sections so as to not overwhelm the reader. The spacious page layouts allowed me to easily find specific information on the company's services, blog posts, and career opportunities.
I also liked how easily accessible the online contact form is on most pages. Google's PageSpeed Insights test awarded the desktop home page an optimal performance score of 90/100.
The mobile website has a clean and well-spaced layout that made it easy for me to explore the pages on a smaller screen. I liked that the "Contact Us" CTA button remains prominent in the top menu bar, but it would be beneficial if the French language translation icon was not hidden behind the hamburger menu. While our real-world tests confirmed fast page loading times, the site's home page received a PageSpeed Insights test score of 45/100.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development is an edge-to-cloud company that offers data protection and analysis services to both local and international users. The website drew me in with its engaging hero video of the company on the Las Vegas Sphere, creating lots of visual interest and complementing the news headline on the home page.
While the website is on the busier side with plenty of page links, content snippets, customer stories, and videos to peruse, I think it's a great online presentation for the company and conveys its ethos of cutting-edge technology and innovation nicely.
I like that the company's latest news and press releases are advertised first on the home page as it gives users a good overview of the company's global activities and reach. The online chat feature is a great addition to the site, as is the search icon and language translation tool in the top menu bar.
While I think the large selection of content sections are visually engaging, it can be slightly overwhelming for readers who prefer a more minimalistic site layout. I also think the "Sign In" page link should be enlarged for more prominence, since it's the main CTA button in the top menu bar.
I enjoyed the desktop website's large and accessible user interface since it allowed me to easily read more about the company's products and services, as well as its various cloud-based initiatives.
While I think the top and footer menu sections are well-organized, they could be condensed slightly to ensure a smoother browsing experience. On Google's PageSpeed Insights test, the home page's performance scored 63/100.
The plus points for the desktop site are perhaps downfalls for the mobile version — the content sections are slightly overwhelming on the smaller screen, but the sticky "Jump to" button does allow for easier navigation across various pages.
The hero video plays without fault on mobile, but has less of an impact in a smaller size and blends in too much with the dark background. The website's home page scored 38/100 in the performance category on PageSpeed Insights.
Austin, Texas, U.S.
Eureka Software is a long-established, custom software development company that offers IP litigation services, mobile app development, and AI-focused solutions. The website's bright color accents and geometric graphics caught my eye, and I liked the condensed top menu bar with comprehensive sub-sections that allowed me to peruse the company's various industry-specific services.
While I have no specific issues with this website, I do think it would benefit from additional on-page elements to generate more visual interest, such as video content. I also think the inclusion of an online chat feature or pricing request form would ensure readers have a good idea of the company's pricing options.
I liked reading more about the company's previous projects on the "Our work" page, and the "About" section gave me an adequate overview of the company's team. The comprehensive footer menu bodes well with the more sparse top menu bar to give users easy access to all page links.
WAVE picked up a large number of contrast errors across the website and the home page, particularly on the "About" page. While the site does offer an FAQ section, I found it lacking as I was left with unanswered questions about the company's pricing plans and industry-specific solutions.
On desktop, the website features well-spaced content with engaging headings, but I thought it could have stood out more against a bright color background. I also found that the majority of page links included text-heavy sections that were a little overwhelming to read without the inclusion of images between the sections instead of next to it. Google's PageSpeed Insights test awarded the site's home page a performance score of 90/100.
While the mobile site has a spacious layout that made for easy readability, the lack of a hero image created less of a visual impact than that of the desktop version. I liked how prominent the "Contact" CTA buttons remained on mobile, but I found the footer menu to be slightly overwhelming with its ample page links creating a long, text-heavy section to read through.
On Google's PageSpeed Insights test, the website's home page scored 58/100 in the performance category, which also indicated moderate page loading times.
Cambridge, England, U.K.
Darktrace provides global clients with comprehensive cybersecurity AI solutions, focusing on ransomware, cloud attacks, and SaaS vulnerabilities. The website makes a bold impression with a fiery color scheme that feels unique for this particular niche. I also liked that the home page's images are connected by a golden thread and I think it creates a feeling of synergy.
I enjoyed perusing the website's various page links to find out more about the wide range of products on offer, and while the top menu bar's top links are quite small and difficult to read, it does ensure that visitors have access to a great selection of content.
I liked that the company offers a "Demo" request process for users interested in learning more about the company's offerings. The inclusion of plentiful additional resources, such as annual reports, blog posts, and industry glossaries held my attention beyond the company's product range.
While I liked the website's content and visual elements, I think it would be beneficial to include videos or other interactive tools to generate additional user interest. According to WAVE, there are several instances of insufficient contrast ratios throughout the website, including on the home page.
The desktop website features well-organized text sections that I found easy to navigate with both content snippets and ample page links. The inclusion of prominent CTA buttons is noticeable, but I would have liked slightly larger body text to ensure optimal readability across all pages. I found all pages to load quite fast, and this is reflected in the home page's performance score of 64/100 on Google's PageSpeed Insights test.
While the site's content displayed effectively on mobile, I felt like the home page's hero image did not have the same visual impact as it has on the desktop version.
The text-heavy sections are nicely broken up with ample white space, but I would have liked the CTA buttons to remain prominent in the top menu bar rather than be hidden behind the hamburger menu. On Google's PageSpeed Insights test, the home page's performance scored rather low at 35/100.
