Today, when we talk about user experience, we often focus on consumers, customers, and sales. However, user experience also includes employee experience. When an employee is well-equipped, they learn faster and more efficiently, serve customers better, and stay longer within the company..

Signs of a poor user experience

User frustration

Hieratic navigation. Loss of sales or reputation with customers, prospects and users.

Inconsistencies

Differences between brand contact points, both digital and physical.

Technical Debt

Lack of design patterns and different components leading to extra work and maintenance.

Product complexity

Inefficiency in employee work causing frustration, increased fatigue, and significant demotivation.

What is a UX audit?

A UX audit is a thorough diagnostic of a website, mobile app, or digital product's ergonomics and usability. It aims to identify strengths and weaknesses in user experience and provide concrete recommendations for improvement. Our UX audits rely on rigorous methodology and specific tools to analyze various aspects of user experience.

The benefits of a UX audit

Optimized user experience

A satisfactory user experience is essential to attract consumers. An appropriate UX audit will allow you to improve the quality of your site or service and make it profitable by building customer loyalty.

High conversion rate

A high conversion rate cannot be achieved without a smooth and optimal user experience. Hence the undeniable interest of a UX audit which will help to propose an effective design and to remove the obstacles that customers may encounter.

When to do a UX audit?

The design phase of a website, product or service is crucial to its success and viability. A UX audit can effectively optimize this process, from design to implementation. Once the launch is complete, it is very useful to conduct a UX audit to collect user feedback as well as data on actual interactions.

When redesigning a website, SaaS software, web or mobile application, a UX audit can provide reliable information on the best practices to put in place, the modifications and improvements to integrate, without overwhelming or destabilizing the existing users.

Whether it is artificial intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) or Internet of Things (IoT), the integration of new technologies or new features can be perfectly successful and bring maximum value to users if it is preceded by a UX audit which can assess to what extent these additions can be perceived by the existing user experience.

A decline in user engagement, conversion rate, or an increase in bounce rates are warning signs of declining performance. Thus, a UX audit can help identify the root causes of these problems and plan the necessary actions to correct or resolve them.

What our customers think

"Quick and effective fixes rather than a major overhaul"

"The UX-co audit allowed us to make major fixes to our website, quickly and without having to redo everything. I was able to make a portion of the fixes myself and for the rest I was fine equipped to negotiate with my agency."
