Many organizations approach accessibility from a purely “functional” viewpoint, leaving user experience behind, and their projects still vulnerable to potential legal complaints.
Our unique “disability-focused” usability testing process places the needs of users with disabilities at the center of our usability testing process. Our usability testing reports provide you with a clear picture of what users with a variety of disabilities encounter when they enter your website, software or mobile aps.
Learn why usability is an important part of accessibility in this article by the W3C.
How it works
- Pinpoints confusing and potentially frustrating processes, that can adversely impact users with disabilities.
- Identifies a reasonable length of time for users with disabilities to be successful in using your website, mobile ap or software.
- Assesses the level of satisfaction users with disabilities have in using your software or site.
- Compares mainstream user familiarity against proposed functionality, focusing on the unique needs of users with disabilities.
Disability-focused usability testing can be applied to:
- Websites
- Software
- Mobile applications
- Online learning environments

WeCo trains and maintains our own team of Usability Testers who represent these primary disability classifications: cognitive, hearing, motor skill and sight, to test website, software or mobile applications.
