Friction Detection
UserTesting‘s new friction detection uses machine learning models to visually identify moments in both individual video sessions, and across multiple videos, where people experience friction–behaviors like excessive clicking or scrolling–while using digital products, including prototypes, apps, and websites. Organizations can now combine behavioral data with rich video feedback to gain the context of the challenge and optimize outcomes for success. This feature is particularly useful for product and design teams, as it allows them to visualize the user journey, and then optimize flows before investing in expensive development resources. Unlike other more limited solutions, UserTesting’s friction detection feature is more robust and comprehensive, and can be used when testing live sites as well as prototypes. Friction detection saves time, makes it easy to drill down into the moment of friction, highlighted in videos, to gain the context needed to understand and address user needs more quickly. It also provides more efficient analysis, while reducing risk and rework associated with bringing poor experiences to market.
Microsoft Teams Integration
UserTesting has made it easier for organizations to share human insights by integrating with Microsoft Teams. Users who use both UserTesting and Microsoft Teams can easily share videos and related content with colleagues without leaving the UserTesting platform – enabling more people across an organization to get a first-hand view of an experience and hear their thoughts out loud. This integration allows customers to save time and apply insights gathered from UserTesting to drive business decisions. Even colleagues who do not have a UserTesting subscription can benefit from this feature, creating more value from a UserTesting subscription.
