The Business value of UX: Taking UX to an Institutional level

Today, executives are placing lots of attention on user experience (UX). Forrester recently published a report that showed that 93% of executives thought that improving the customer experience was a top strategic priority. But, what is the ROI of user experience design?

This white paper discusses the business value of providing users with the best possible user experience in a way that provides your organization with the best possible business results. Jeff Horvath, HFI’s VP – UX Strategy, discusses:

  • Why a good user experience matters
  • How to measure the ROI of UX
  • Industry shifts toward institutionalizing UX
  • Evaluating and building a mature UX practice by using the Usability Maturity Model
  • Aligning UX metrics with business metrics

“A good user experience, like a measurable ROI, doesn’t typically happen by accident. It is the result of careful planning, analysis, investment, and continuous improvement.”
