“What a fantastic UPA conference this year gathering in the beautiful city of Munich. With an attendance level in excess of 700 travelling to congregate from Asia, North & South America, Asia Pacific and of course representatives from every county in Europe – we must have had all of them descend on our booth as the footfall and interest in UserZoom was truly overwhelming. Early expectations is that this was a huge success for UserZoom as the senior level of UX Pro’s interested in taking up the UserZoom ‘All in One’ UX tool to conduct numerous types of research across the world is what it is all about”.

Alfonso de la Nuez showed in his talk at BigDesign Conference, Dallas (USA), what, why, and how to conduct website user experience & usability benchmarking in his session talk: "How to conduct global UX benchmarking".

Debunking the Myths of Online Usability Testing

Tue, 04/20/2010, News, Events & Articles

 Bill Albert's motivation for this article is to help UX researchers keep an open mind about online usability testing. There are some researchers who have been using this approach for years and find it useful (in certain situations). Others are new to it, and wanting to learn more about its strength and limitations. Finally, some UX researchers have already formed an opinion about online usability testing, and deemed it not useful for a variety of (unfounded) reasons. He hopes by exposing these myths, we (as a UX community) can evaluate this tool based on its actual merits.
