These workshops can offer invaluable insight to nuances that can help create excellent usability.

 

INFORMATION ARCHITECTURE 

Information architecture is a fancy way to describe organizing and structuring information that is relevant to your users. It includes labeling, navigation, and search systems. This process includes research, strategy and design and documentation.

  • UX-radio helps you make sense of the structure and organization of content.  Card-sorting work sessions help establish a framework structure along with what we learned about the user’s context. We provide a sitemap and content structure recommendations.

 

USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN 

  • The high-fidelity sketches in work sessions save a ton of time and money. From the data and analysis discovered, wireframes are designed and iterated then tested, and iterated. Our design cycle:
    1. Design
    2. Test
    3. Iterate
  • We design collaboratively to gain input and suggestions with stakeholders, users, the development team (including markups for functional specs), visual design and your systems.

 

USER TESTING

  • This work session identifies the testing goals. Once we have clear, measurable goals, UX-radio creates a user testing evaluation plan. This includes a set of task elicitation exercises that will help us discover what’s not working and validate what’s working well.
  • User interviews are recorded and analyzed to reveal:
    • Commonality with language – How do users talk about the product/service? Labeling, content strategy, marketing
    • Functionality – What are the most common problems?
    • Clarity – Do users understand the brand and purpose?
    • An Executive Summary is presented to share findings and recommendations
  • Whether you’re looking for Moderated or Unmoderated testing methods, contact us for help to add value to your valued customers.
