Quick-UX. Quick Heuristics for User eXperience. « The Product Guy

a quick assessment methodology of User eXperience

The Product GuyThis is an awesome blog! There are lots of interesting articles here, the latest one from March 24th 2008 is about a quick assessment methodology of User eXperience. While the actual measurements for Desirability require quite some knowledge, assumption sets, and professional experience, I like the approach of having a couple of quick rules to check any product design against.


Quick-UX is a method that I have developed and refined over time and frequently utilize when quick assessments are best suited to the task. The method that I describe below is a great way to build a summary description with quantifiable and comparable metrics, representing the understanding of the overall User eXperience of a product.

The Quick-UX evaluates the degree to which a product successfully addresses the following 3 questions:

■
Can I use it? (Usability)
■
Should I use it? (Usefulness)
■
Do I want to use it? (Desirability)
