To understand every requirement (said and unsaid) given by clients and to create the design in one go is impossible for even highly experienced designers.

It takes a series of meetings, countless emails, and edits to get to a point where the client and designers get on the same page.

To dodge all the time-wasting efforts and to increase work efficiency designers use prototyping tools.

Prototyping tools help designers and their clients to get on the same page quickly and avoid conflicting outlook of the project. Clients also get a visual outlook of what is being created and if any changes are required that can be done easily too.

User research is used to learn more about the user’s needs, experience, and motivation through various qualitative and quantitative methods and to initiate the process of solving the problems they are facing.

You may be building a new product or trying to improve an existing one because you realized that customers are facing UX problems. These are incredible opportunities to give your users a chance to disclose to you how they feel about your product. To improve the quality of your product you need to consider all the problems, major or minor, that your users are facing.

Business intelligence (BI) is the use of data and processes to analyze the inner workings of a company and figure out how to apply that data toward improvement and growth. Getting a handle on the analytics of your business improves processes and allows departments to run more efficiently. BI is a significant help, not only to large corporations, but to smaller companies as well.

Usability testing is the practice of testing how easy design is to use on a group of representative users. It usually involves observing users as they attempt to complete tasks and can be done for different types of designs, from user interfaces to physical products. It is often conducted repeatedly, from early development until a product’s release. This testing mainly focuses on the users’ efficiency, effectiveness and satisfaction in use of the product. People also associate Learnability and Memorability with usability.

The main benefit and purpose of usability testing is to identify usage problems with a design as early as possible, so they can be fixed before the design is implemented or mass produced.
