UserTesting

UserBob has changed the course of our business.

Pros

  • Cheap, but high quality user testing.
  • Bare bones - just the basics of what you need. It lets you customize questions, customize audiences, and then see results!

UserTesting

There's no better testing site than UserBob!

Pros

  • It provides quick and diverse feedback. We don't necessarily want the most web-savvy individuals testing our product, UserBob had a good mix of users with varying skill levels.
  • Extremely affordable. Of all the user testing services we looked at, UserBob provided the most benefit for its price.
  • They over-delivered on their services. I requested 5-minute videos with a specified task figuring that if the users did not get through the task in 5 minutes and quit then that would be as valuable as them completing the task; but all the users went overtime to complete the task so I could see exactly what our system was doing wrong.
  • The co-founder, John, reached out personally to ensure that I was satisfied with the level of service provided. Great customer support!

Cons

  • Haven't had any issues with UserBob.

Return on Investment

  • UserBob has significantly reduced the time it would take us to review our platform.
  • UserBob has allowed us to find and fix bugs before actual users ran into issues.
