Usability

Find and fix issues before they become a problem

Make sure something works before you spend money on software engineers.

User testing can uncover friction in your product or service that you didn’t know was there. The insights from usability testing give our clients a roadmap for which issues are most important and what to tackle next.

How we help

Uncover issues

Poor performance, usability, and confusion can all overshadow a user’s experience. And in many cases, poor usability can make or break a product. (Sources)

100x

Cost of design flaws

It’s 100 times more expensive to fix a design flaw after it’s gone into development.

85%

Spotting errors

Studies have found just a handful of users (5 or 6) can uncover 85% of usability problems.

50%

Developer time

Studies also have shown that a developer spends about half of their time fixing issues and bugs instead of building new features.

Featured usability projects

We get results for our clients

Here are some of our favorite projects where we provided usability expertise.

Event driven B2B software research

This was a B2B software research project to explore our client’s early-stage event driven architecture to compete with other solutions on the market.

Skills and expertise

We may also conduct competitive usability testing to uncover issues in competitor products and give your team more insight into what’s working and what isn’t.

Recruitment

We’ll recommend the best method for recruiting users for testing based on your budget and timeline. This may include using platforms, social media, email outreach or even using a recruitment firm.

Remote or in-person

We’ll also recommend whether to test in-person or using remote tools based on the users themselves and the best way to reach them.

Reporting and prioritization

We provide our clients with a summary and detailed report of what we found and our recommendations for action steps.

They were able to get ramped up on our product fairly quickly.

Usually it takes our users a long time to get the flow of things but they understood all the painpoints and came up with the perfect design for us and even came up with features we did not know we needed. Once we saw the design we absolutely loved all of their ideas.

I highly recommend Standard Beagle Studio

They are easy to work with, and their pricing is fair and reasonable. They reworked my website after an SEO disaster, and it works beautifully now. They initiated security measures to protect the site, and made improvements I didn’t know were possible. I’m glad I found Standard Beagle.
