Diagnostic Accelerator


Many product owners are aware of underlying problems with their applications. Anecdotal information is often not enough to get investment for modernizing or fixing problems with the application. With our research tools, we document all the points of failures, usability issues, pain points and provide recommendations to improve.

A well-performing application can suddenly start performing poorly as, technology, user behaviors, and expectations change with time. A hard look into all the aspects of an application can surface issues ranging from critical to minor that can support a business case for investing in upgrading the application. These issues can inform product backlog and sizing of effort needed to unlock new performance.

User needs to change all the time

When users have access to new technology and older ways of doing things feel outdated they feel frustrated. Additionally, the initial use case eventually reaches its limit and users want more. These are all moving targets and it's important to know how the current application is measuring up to expectations and modern standards.

Products become complex

Products often become hard to use when new features are organically added. Taking a step back and looking at everything often helps reassess the situation and re-simplify the user experience.
