Holistic User Experience Design

Normally, the main considerations for good UX are pretty straightforward – is the site intuitive and easy to use? Does it look good? Is it easy to navigate? These things are important, of course. But there are many other facets to application design that if neglected, can signal project challenges or even failure. Here are a few things that designers need to keep in mind that are not normally considered to be part of the UX design process, but are best handled during the design phase of a project.Read More

User Experience Design for Back-Office Processes

It seems that in many people’s minds, UX is considered most useful in situations where sites or systems are built for customer-facing situations. This is true, UX is very useful for this.

You really can’t talk about Customer Experience design without taking a hard look at back office processes. Successful enterprises put considerable thought and energy and resources into fine-tuning every aspect of their businesses.Read More

The Value of User Experience Design

Nothing is more important to web site and application development than User Experience Design (UX). This is something I’ve learned through experience and that I have a great passion about. If you think about it, it makes perfect sense. It is much easier to be “agile” when you are talking to a client or end-user and their change request involves changing a sketch or wireframe or a note on behavior, rather than completely reprogramming something.  Really good and to-the-point UX research and design can prevent mountains of problems and headaches and delays and disappointments down the line. It also ensures that programmers know the expectations very clearly, and won’t spend time adding features that no one wants and won’t design in a way that fits more easily into programming tool conventions than human usability conventions.Read More
