Usability Analysis
A quick, low-cost review of an existing or planned Web site, application or
device. Using information about your targeted audience, we compare the end-user capabilities and intents with the designs
to identify existing or potential usability issues.
Usability Testing
Using targeted end-users, we conduct
various tests to identify potential obstacles they might encounter.
Low-fidelity testing
Using paper, index cards, tape, wire frames, comps, pens, and markers, we capture important
and useful information at a critical point in the development of your interface...before you start coding.
High-fidelity testing
Using either protype or released software and published
Web sites, we create a series of tasks for the end-users to perform, capturing their activity in a near-real world situation.
Testing may include quantitative methods, such as time-on-task and completion, or qualitative methods, designed to elicit
perceptual and emotional aspects of the application, Web site or device.
Analytic Web Site Design
We have developed
a proprietary method for using quantitative and qualitative data to design Web sites. This method greatly reduces the
risks inherent with new designs, and ensures that the site is designed for specific target audiences and their intents.
Section
508 / Web Accessibility Compliance
Recent legislation and court cases have increased the need for your Web site to
be accessible to all end-users. Making changes to existing sites can be time-consuming and costly. We work with
you to determine what level of compliance best works for your site, and then identify the best way to implement them.
Usability
Coaching
We work with your existing designers and developers to help them understand the value of usability, and how
to best integrate it into your existing methodoloy.
