Uses the internet for: His programming studies, blogging

When he doesn’t feel like studying, James often surfs the internet for hours. He now considers himself a bit of an expert, and has started a blog on general internet use.

When he got to your website, he described it as “hard to use”.

Make sure your website works – before James finds it

The problems James found could have been prevented with functional prototyping. These “sample sites” can be tested with users before it’s exposed to the criticism of general site visitors.

Umlungu does functional prototyping

A functional prototype is worth months of analysis and design time. We can provide functional, working interfaces to establish:

  • usability,
  • communication,
  • effectiveness of design and
  • technical decisions.

What this means to you

You save time and money by seeing how your finished product would function.

  • Problems with usability are identified and eliminated before your website goes live.
  • From here it’s just a hop, skip and a jump to getting the end product that really works – for you and your intended audience.

We fast-track success – our prototypes put into action what our competitors are still putting down on paper.

Prototyping is just one step in our process. Talk to us to help you decide the best course of action for your specific needs.
