What is UX benchmarking and why is it important?
OK……. So how do we define UX benchmarking?
What is UX benchmarking and why is it important?
! Definition of Benchmarking: ! The process of comparing the business
processes and performance metrics including cost, cycle time, productivity, or quality to another that is widely considered to be an industry standard benchmark or best practice.
! It provides a snapshot of the performance of your business and helps you understand where you are in relation to a particular standard.
What is UX benchmarking and why is it important?
! Definition of UX: ! It’s about how a person feels about using
a system. It highlights the experiential, affective, meaningful and valuable aspects of HCI and product ownership, but it also covers a person’s perceptions of the practical aspects such as utility, ease of use and efficiency of the system.
! User experience is subjective in nature, as it is about an individual’s feelings and thoughts about the system. User experience is dynamic, because it changes over time as the circumstances change.
What is UX benchmarking and why is it important?
Some may wonder: is UX benchmarking:
?
Not really…..
Here’s how we’d define UX Benchmarking:
• The process of comparing a website’s performance, specifically in relation to UX metrics, including among others effectiveness, efficiency, overall satisfaction and quality perception (ISO-9241-11 standard), to another that is widely considered to be an industry standard benchmark or best practice.
• UX benchmarking provides a snapshot of the performance of your website and helps you understand where you are in relation to a particular standard.
10 must-dos with UX Benchmarking
1. Define measurable & comparable UX-related KPIs (key performance indicators)
2. Select competitors to benchmark against
3. Define target audience
4. Identify common site activities/tasks (between-subjects design)
5. Conduct research using scenario-based testing
6. Gather both quantitative & qualitative data
7. Use the quantitative data to test for statistically significant differences between means or proportions
8. Use qualitative data to support your findings and understand the why!
9. Research at least twice a year to measure design changes and trends in expectations
10. Use the right research solution/tool

‘You can’t manage what you can’t measure’
Attributed to Peter Drucker, Mgt Guru
The question is:
How are you actually measuring UX and defining your benchmark?
Methodology and Technology
Common UX research challenges
! Difficulties obtaining objective, statistically significant, actionable data

Success rates for Netherlands
! Task 2 : «!Find the closest shop to the Amsterdam railway station and write down its address.!»
! The T-mobile site provided the best results regarding this task, 77% of the participants was successful.
! On average it took slightly over one minute to find the right information, with an average of only 4 page views and 8 clicks.
! On the Vodafone website 52% was successful in achieving this information.
! Remarkable result is that it took an average of 3 minutes and 29 clicks to complete this task.
Success questionnaire - Netherlands
! Nevertheless, the rate of success regarding a task is not necessarily an indication of the ease of use:
! The Vodafone website was less successful, but only 28% of the participants regarded it to be difficult to acquire the needed information.
! On the T-mobile website, people were far more successful, but also less satisfied with the level of difficulty to get to the right URL: 42% of the participants thought this was (very) hard to achieve.
! Vodafone
! T-mobile
Abandon questionnaire - Netherlands
! Main reasons for abandoning a task were:
! Page not loading: Especially the Vodafone website was unable to load the required page. Remarkable is that people wait up to 5 minutes!
! Information not in expected location: Both Vodafone and T-mobile present information in an unexpected manner. Participants have certain expectations on where and how to find the required information. In case these expectations are not met, people easily abandon the website.
QUOTES “I was looking for it under Customer service and expected to be able to fill in my location and that it would automatically give the closest store location.” “ I was unable to open the page.”
Final questionnaire - Netherlands
! Users of both the Vodafone as well as the T-mobile website are neither positive nor negative about the websites:
! They regard it as easy to use for inexperienced users and there is no need for extra help.
! Nevertheless, the lack of success will have some influence on the use of the website.
! Most users indicate that they will not likely be using these websites in the near future again.
Task 2 Spain : Find the closest shop to the Atocha
railway station and take note of its fax number. !)
Task 2 Spain – success ratios
• On Vodafone 68% of users completed the task successfully .
• On Orange 53% of users completed the task successfully.
Vodafone analysis - Spain
• First click of users was mostly focused on the search engine and the help section. There were several users that tried to find the shops using the Vodafone logo.
Vodafone analysis - Spain
• The reason users got the answer incorrect was due to a problem on the web. Although as happened in the previous task, the information that users found was not clear enough.
The site is not clear nor intuitive, you have to use the search engine, the information provided is not precise
The section with the Vodafone shops is easy, the problem is one you have to find one in Madrid
Too much information on the map
Vodafone analysis - Spain
• The reasons participants abandoned the task was mainly due to the information being incomplete (67%). Other reasons were: • The information
presentation is not clear enough
• The information, options and menus are difficult to understand
• The information wasn’t in the expected location
• Few search options • As it has been seen in the
previous task users again had problems with the information provided.
I have entered province “Madrid”, city “Madrid” and no results appeared with this search options. I have tried with different options and it always happened the same.
Orange Analysis - Spain)
• Most of the users went to the tab “Orange shop” in order to look for the addresses of the physical shops.
• The reason for the incorrect answer was ‘not being able to find the correct information due to options and menus being difficult to understand.’
• Users explained that the site mainly focuses on the iPhone whereas iPad information is quite difficult to find.
• The system could be improved using an accessible and easy to find search engine.
There is no way to understand what is going on here.
There is no way to find anything. What a fuss!
Orange Analysis - Spain
• Those users who didn’t finish the task was mainly because they couldn’t find the information where they were expecting to find it.
• The links to the information were not clear enough.
• The site is very focused on selling products or services instead of giving clients the service that they need. I don’t have anything
against Orange but its website is a disaster

After completing the four tasks, participants were asked how likely they would be to recommend each mobile provider’s website.
Detractors
Top 5 findings / Learnings ! The satisfaction is directly related with the success of the users in
obtaining the information that they are looking for. In general the websites for mobile operators in all countries are not performing optimal when consumers have a task in mind. The performance rate was dependent on the task, not the website.
! Across the board the main difficulties were in participants finding specific information. The normal way users tried to find the information was through the menu structure. When they realized it was too complicated they tried to use ‘search’ although the results weren’t always clear enough.! A much clearer architecture and clearer results in search engines are therefore needed. Furthermore the use of promotional ads made the navigation much longer and difficult for most of the users.
Top 5 findings / Learnings
! Analysing NPS, SUS, success on task and preference data it is clear that the brand halo effect has a bearing on site preference in each market irrespective of task success.
! UK - although participants had notably higher task success rates on the Orange site (75% and 71%) vs. the Vodafone site (50% and 49%), when asked for site preference at the end of the study, the Orange website was selected only 8% more than the Vodafone site (54% vs 46%) respectively. Out of the Orange customers (n=17) more than half (9) preferred the Vodafone website.
! Orange is not strong in Spain
! Swisscom the national provider is stronger in Switzerland
! Vodafone marginally outperforms T-mobile in the Netherlands
Top 5 findings / Learnings ! When participants were asked whether they would recommend the sites
in each market all operators scored negatively showing room for improvement. Although these scores are low, previous research has shown that telecommunication companies have the lowest net promoter scores within the technology sector.
! As Vodafone and Orange were both tested in 3 of the 4 markets we can benchmark their experiences.
! Vodafone outperforms Orange on aggregated SUS (53 versus 51.3)
! Vodafone outperforms Orange on aggregated NPS (-55% versus -64.3%)
! Task 1 success aggregated : Vodafone outperforms Orange (46% versus 42%)
! Task 2 success aggregated : Orange outperforms Vodafone (70% versus 56%)
