User experience design (UX) is the process of increasing user satisfaction with a product by improving the usability, accessibility, and pleasure provided in the interaction with the product.
A UX process can be applied to improve almost anything. Some examples could be websites, apps, hardware products, software, packaging, instructions, manuals, booking a flight, insuring a car, a cinema trip or holiday.
Thinking about the whole experience, simplifying, improving and using a UX process to find user problems.
Help with putting the ‘user first’ with your product, finding users wants and needs.
Finding user pain points and pain points resolutions.
Keeping product or business goals in mind while satisfying user needs.
Our UX Process
- Gather and analyze data – metrics, feedback, heuristic review, user testing, usability testing, user observations, user pain points and product/business goals.
- Creating personas to know who you are designing for.
- Ideation techniques for creative solutions.
- Scenarios and storyboarding to help fill in design gaps.
- Paper prototypes for early usability testing, and validation of designs with representative users.
- Use the information to better plan the development cycle.
- Repeat or revisit any part of the process if problems are encountered or additional data is needed.
