Be cautious with the source of the data used for personalization. For example, when you personalize information by location or role for an intranet, the database that stores this information must be kept up-to-date. We’ve heard several intranet teams complain that they would like to implement personalization, but they do not have a reliable

Often, companies build hybrid apps as wrappers for an existing web page; in that way, they hope to get a presence in the app store, without spending significant effort for developing a different app. Hybrid apps are also popular because they allow crossplatform development and thus significantly reduce development costs: that is, the same HTML

Enbridge employees can easily access the company’s public information on social sites — including Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube — via links in the middle of the homepage.

With all the hype around blockchain, it’s a technology that’s still finding its feet when it comes to wide, mainstream adoption. Therefore it’s not every day when you come across a company that uses both IoT sensor technology and the blockchain to solve a common agricultural problem. Zest Labs have created a fresh food

Melissa Hathaway came across our radar recently when President Obama tasked the former Bush administration aide with leading a 60-day review of Bush’s Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative; a largely classified, purported $30 billion, multi phase plan to address cybersecurity issues that Hathaway was involved in developing.

She explained that the original design of the Internet was driven more by considerations of interoperability rather than security, and as a result we are now faced with almost insurmountable issues. Some examples include online criminals who steal our information, mass bandits who have the ability to damage portions of our internal infrastructure

It’s likely that over time, increased exposure and familiarity with a product diminishes users’ perceptions of strangeness. Even if an individual isn’t using the product or service, she may have friends or family who use the technology, or she may encounter advertisements and learn more about how the product functions. Regardless of how the

If there are specific categories of people you need to exclude from the study, an open-ended question will be better than a multiple-choice one with answers that list the excluded categories. For example, unless your design is for expert users, it’s best to exclude those whose job relates to the design you are evaluating, because their

Most users are not familiar with the tools available for microsession support — widgets, quick actions, Siri shortcuts, and Google Assistant routines don’t yet get widespread usage (the only notable exception is notifications). Yet, these actions can offer significant speedups for those users who know about them, and are thus an example of

Dr. Alan Rimm-Kaufman from the Rimm-Kaufman Group recently tracked one million clicks on search ads on Google and Yahoo. These advertising clicks eventually translated into 41,377 conversions on the target websites.

This bar chart shows the average ease rating for activities performed on a computer/laptop (red) and, respectively, on a mobile device (grey). Activity ease was rated on a scale from 1 (very difficult) to 5 (very easy). Computer activities had an average ease rating of 3.96 out of 5, with a 95% margin of error of 0.22. Mobile activities had an

The distinction here is an important one, and goes well beyond the narrow view of qualitative as “open ended” as in an open-ended survey question. Rather, studies that are qualitative in nature generate data about behaviors or attitudes based on observing them directly, whereas in quantitative studies, the data about the behavior or attitudes

The prototype system was developed on a single personal computer platform under the assumption that alternative versions for other personal computers with graphical user interfaces would use similar designs and have similar usability characteristics. This assumption was not tested, however. Prototyping aims at generating a running user interface

With the homepage as navigation hub, prime real estate will be wasted for chrome and all navigation will have to go through the homepage. While these two may seem as major disadvantages (and they are for most types of sites or apps), they can be less of a problem for those sites and apps used not for browsing and consuming content, but for

Framing is a well-known phenomenon in psychology. Psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky explored the effect of decision frames and found that the exact same information can lead to opposite conclusions, depending on the frame used to present the decision. For example, a price which is described as ‘discounted’ will attract more buyers

IoT security attacks caused because of the Internet will not only impact normal people’s life, but also produce more serious problems to large-scale enterprises. Based on the report titled Toward New Possibilities in Threat Management from Price Waterhouse Coopers in 2017, the number of cyber attacks in the East Asia region has rapidly

Hurricane Harvey was a Category four storm that hit Texas on August 25, 2017. It caused billions in lost data damage to the residents of Texas. The total loss suffered was more than any other natural disaster in U.S. history except Hurricane Katrina. How Data Recovery Impacts Businesses Besides such disasters, software and hardware failure and

An Information Technology (IT) department is charged with the responsibility of developing and managing a company’s technology assets. The Information Technology (IT) department includes so many differentiations that it can be mind-boggling. This blog will help you sort out what you know about IT — and what you don’t know about

The recent turbulence of Coronavirus made all of us rethink business life. Many industries have started incorporating profound transformation to overcome the recession. The metamorphosis includes day-to-day operations to the business processes of vital importance. Businesses have even started closing new deals with clients at online meetings

Marketing tactics change constantly. Each year new tactics become more impactful, and old ones fade into obscurity. Sticking to the same tactics is stale for your current customers and potential customers, too. Instead of just running the same growth tactics for years on end, it’s time to make a switch in 2020. Here are four unique growth

Netflix.com: In its regular state, there are no visual cues to indicate that more content is available (top). Arrows appear only on hover (bottom). Additionally, to see more content within a category, users must hover over the arrow. When they do so, the strip starts to move; if users want to see more items, they must be careful not to move their

Westfield was reasonably compliant with guidelines for presenting a corporation's image on the Web in an "About Us" area, and the user had little trouble finding relevant information. Each event in the company's history was shown in a lightbox-style pop-up. Although this was perhaps an overly aggressive design choice, it certainly worked. Users

To truly assess the user experience of a responsive design, do not test your responsive designs only in the comfort of your own office, on your high-speed connection. Venture out into the wild with your smartphone— between tall buildings in a city, in interior conference rooms or basements, in remote areas with spotty connectivity, in known
