Usability Testing

Through usability testing services, our team can determine how an existing product design meets user expectations. Our usability testing services are helpful in both the product discovery phase and during the UI design process. In discovery, we can determine what designs work well in their existing states. 

Participants will use a product or functional prototype to perform tasks. Usability testing is helpful to gain an understanding of pain points—and clients are given feedback to better understand what works well and what doesn’t.

UX Assessment and Analytics

Our team will review your existing data and create additional KPIs to compile relevant quality metrics. Through the continued collection and analysis of usability metrics, our clients can measure the impact of design changes.

Discovery & Understanding

Our design team is intent on limiting bias in the user research process. We will gather all the data we need to understand your company and clients—and by doing so, we can approach the design of your product with a complete picture.

Insights, Ideas, & Analysis

Once we have the required data, our design team will head back to our offices in Birmingham, Alabama to evaluate it. We will analyze and interpret the data using the latest analytical tools and technology so that we (and you!) stay as informed as possible.

Synthesize & Strategize

Our services will then shift to identifying patterns and trends in our data. By using the insights we gained during the data analysis phase, we’ll create a strategy to solve sources of user pain for a better user experience.
