Orbitz.com
Our team completed six rounds of UX research for Orbitz.com when it was in startup mode. In June 2001 (the first official month of launch) over 3.7 million unique visitors went to Orbitz.com. By July 2001 they had over 1 million registered users and sales of over $100 million. In November 2004 Orbitz was purchased by Cendant for $1.25 billion.
DevOps Startup
Founded in 2016 , our DevOps focused client started with two partners and a goal of creating a more secure software supply chain. Their first generation website and marketing efforts were in need of a re-boot and we helped them understand more about their customer’s buyer journey, website content, messaging, visual design, and how effectively their value proposition was being communicated. Since their UX and marketing updates, the firm now has over 50 employees and includes clients such as Nvidia, Servicenow, and the US Air Force.
Biometrics Software
In 2009 our client bought a bankrupt facial recognition and identity firm and started on a journey to re-launch and grow. At a critical time in their expansion, our team ran focus groups to understand how to retain and attract new customers. The findings led to several smart decisions and today this company is in over 56 airports, 26 sports and entertainment venues, and boasts over 20 million members.
Estimated Timeline: 3-5 Weeks
