Mind Over Machines gathers and analyzes qualitative and quantitative data about users' experience – from the first site visit through the entire customer lifecycle – allowing us  to measure how well your product delivers utility and value. This type of evaluation links usability to profitability

Consider these success metrics for business:

  • Revenue
  • Retention

Now consider success metrics for users:

  • A solution to their frustration

While business goals guide the development of site experiences, the success of those experiences is contingent upon the application's usability. – ease of use and degree of engagement

Using the example of a brokerage web site, we see how key usability issues are determined. Here, an employee's trades drive business success for the brokerage firm.

The more trades the employee executes successfully, the closer he gets to achieving his end-user goals. At the same time, this activity satisfies the business goals

So for the company, the trade process is mission-critical in terms of usability.
