It is easy to measure if the user loves the design of an app or the website, but it is rather difficult to identify where the design has failed.
There may be several inconsistencies in the design, which may feel isolated at first, but they all are connected. These inconsistencies are identified during the design audit phase.
A UX Design Audit is an important part of the design evaluation and structuring process. Think of it as a health check of your product. It ensures that the product is performing consistently across all channels and it is meeting all expectations.
Why UX Design Audit is Important?
UX audits are a crucial step in the design process because they enable the UI UX designers to:
- Check whether the designs are done according to the “best practices” or not.
- Evaluate a particular component or workflow and how it interacts with the other components.
- Identify the opportunities for improvement by analyzing what works, what doesn’t, and what might be missing.
Benefits of UX Design Audit Services
1. Relying on Data to Improve Designs
During our UX Design Audit, we collect all available data at the start of the project, and in case your product doesn’t have any past data, we advise you on deploying tools you should use to gather more helpful info.
This way, by using data, we take the guesswork out of the design.
2. Learning How Actual Users Behave
During our UX Design Audit, we conduct user testing to get to know it from the user's perspective. Here we analyze whether the product meets user goals, errors encountered by users and compliance with business standards like Nielsen heuristics.
3. Saving on Development Costs and Increase in Profits
The design first approach is beneficial to cutting development costs as well as time, and by improving the designs first, you can invest much less during the development phase.
Also, by improving the messaging, user flows, and streamlining onboarding you'll make users understand your product faster, increase conversion and result in a higher Net Promoter Score, lower churn rate, and increased number of referrals.
