Questions & Answers
What is user experience (UX)?
User experience is a commitment to developing digital products with compassion, and integrity. It follows a philosophy popularized by IDEO called human-centered design. Its aim is to balance business goals and real needs with technical constraints.
User experience is more than beautiful visuals. It's about understanding the journeys, needs and challenges of people and creating opportunities to make their lives better using technology.

How does UX add value to my tech business?
Investing in UX is a sound business decision. The return on investment of UX is huge. Some companies get 300 to 9,900% of their investment back, but you can expect that every dollar you invest in UX will bring back 100$. Research and strategy can reduce development time from 33% to 50%.
Not only that, expect to see the reduction of customer service cost, a higher valuation, increase in sales and customer acquisition, reduced churn rate and bounce rate, increased brand trust, increased NPS, and more. Entrepreneur Paul Graham and co-founder of venture capital firm Y Combinator says this mistake kills startups: not making things people want. Forbes wrote in 2019 that user experience is THE business strategy.
