Identify pain points

Your product stands for quality. Ease of use. Innovation. Elegance. Speed. But sometimes, despite best intentions, product teams forget what this means for them. They get caught up in delivery, and their tunnel vision leads to a neglect of following guidelines. 

Tailored to your needs

To help product teams get up to speed or decide on a focus, consider a usability review. This is a thorough yet relatively quick and cheap way to have (a part of) your product(s) evaluated. The usability review can be tailored exactly to your needs – it’s less rigid than a heuristic evaluation.

Characteristics
User research is incidental and ad hoc.
Fragmented and outdated user journey maps.

Insights are not findable or accessible for every team.

No set of fixed methods.
Initiating fixed working methods.

Systematic.

The user journey becomes the starting point for the workflow.

Central storage of insights. Rights and access are managed.

Continuous user research, testing and implementation of improvements.
The same, interchangeable methods for collecting user data throughout the organization.

It is clear who can (and must) make the decisions.

Every product team - in all relevant chapters and departments - has the same way of working.
What we do
We start with a short audit.

We help you realize your first successes.

We give you the tools to work based on user data. We collect input from your target group.

Depending on where you are, Hike One can take responsibility while we take care of the implementation together.
We help with creating structure, defining roles and selecting the right tools.

We help to coach your (new) experts in-house.

We ensure that you can deliver consistently high quality with less effort.

Together we continuously map and manage the user journey, with responsibility increasingly shifting to your own team members.
We help you get the entire organization working based on user journeys.

We spread the gospel across all silos and we help coach the coaches.

If necessary, we help develop the business case and present it at C-level.
We are all blind to our own flaws. That's why we asked Hike One – as an experienced external party – to challenge us.
