Redundant buttons on empty state
For empty state screen, which option is better?
Option 1: Have two identical buttons, one in the normal place (next to heading), and one next to the text that explains what should the user do
pros: button next to text makes the action easy to find
cons: redundancy can confuse users, they can think that these are different actions (although the design and text is exactly the same)
Option 2: Have only one button next to the header, where it will be later on as well.
pros: cleaner screen
Cons: there is a chance that the users will miss the CTA
This is for a desktop system that the users use on a daily basis, I could not find any clear reference for option 1, and I am against using arrows for pointing at the top button
