QUICK ANSWER

What is usability testing?

Usability testing is a research method where real people try to complete tasks on a website, app or prototype while you observe where they struggle. It shows what confuses users, where they drop off and what they expect to find. The findings guide design changes that make the product easier to use and better at converting.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Usability testing FAQs

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What is usability testing?

+

Usability testing is watching real users try to complete tasks on your website, app or prototype to see where they get stuck. It reveals confusing navigation, unclear wording and broken flows that analytics alone cannot explain. The results give you a clear list of changes that make your product easier to use.

Why prototype before development?

+

Prototyping before development lets you test ideas with users when changes are still cheap. Fixing a flow in a prototype takes hours, while fixing it in finished code can take weeks. A clickable prototype also aligns your team and stakeholders on exactly what will be built.

How much does usability testing cost?

+

Usability testing cost depends on the number of participants, tasks and rounds, whether testing is moderated or unmoderated, and how participants are recruited. Even a small round with a few users finds most major problems. We scope a test plan on a free call and quote a fixed price.

How many users do you need for usability testing?

+

A small group of around five users per round usually uncovers most of the biggest usability problems. It is better to run several small rounds, fixing issues between them, than one large test.

Do you provide ongoing support?

+

Yes. Ongoing maintenance, optimization and additional improvements can be added after the initial project.
