Usability Testing Tools Overview

What are Usability Testing Tools?

Usability testing tools are used to evaluate how products or a webpage are received and used by a group of customers. This gives direct qualitative and quantitative input on how real users use the system or website. Usability tests also identify design problems before the final product is released. They help gauge customer satisfaction with the product.


Many usability testing platforms also offer A/B testing services and may overlap with functional testing tools. However, the core functions of the usability testing platforms are behavioral data tracking and prototype testing. These allow site developers to observe user engagement with the website or mobile app and identify frustration points.


Most products in this category offer remote, moderated, and unmoderated user tests along with video and survey capabilities. Many of these platforms include their own pool of remote users to conduct usability tests with. Alternatively, some vendors also allow buyers to use their own panel of participants to run the tests with.
