Usability testing allows you to view your website or app through your viewers eyes. This testing is proven to be a major tool to evaluate your product with real people. Below we are going to share everything you need to know about usability testing and how to collect quantitative data to create better user experiences.

Even if you don't see any faults with your website or app, it is important to gather external data to validate your platform's usability. With testing you are able to identify issues quickly and see your user preferences and changes over time. This is all because usability testing provides you insights to your users preferences, motives behind why they are using your product, and their goal. This knowledge helps you gather users' perspectives and how to effectively promote user-friendly platforms.

Benefits when you incorporate usability testing:

• Reduce developmental costs
