    Real-World Testing

    Our approach to IHUTs involves conducting tests in actual home environments, providing a true reflection of how products perform in real-life settings. This method allows us to gather genuine user feedback, uncovering insights that are often missed in controlled environments. By observing how products are used daily, businesses can identify potential issues and areas for improvement that might not be evident in a laboratory setting.

    Data gathering

    Comprehensive Data Collection

    We employ a robust data collection strategy that includes both qualitative and quantitative methods. This dual approach ensures a holistic understanding of user experiences. Our qualitative data collection involves in-depth interviews and user diaries, capturing detailed feedback on user interactions and satisfaction. Quantitative data is gathered through surveys and usage logs, providing measurable insights into product performance and user behavior.

    Every product and client is unique, and we recognize the importance of customizing our testing protocols to ensure this is recognized. Our team works closely with clients to develop tailored testing plans that address their particular goals and challenges. Whether it’s adjusting the duration of the test, selecting specific user demographics, or focusing on particular aspects of product performance, we ensure that our protocols are perfectly aligned with client objectives.
