Usabilla.com - Checking Out How Usable Your Site Is

Testing something in order to ensure that it will be usable by your intended public is taxing, if only because the process could be so consuming as to delay a launch ad infinitum. That is where this new tool comes in. Named Usabilla, it lets developers collect feedback on any website, mockup or sketch that they are working on, and it lets them do so in a very supple way – a visual one.
The way it all works is quite ingenious if you think about it, as developers can create tests and add the prototypical questions such as "What's important for you on this page?", "What do you like?", or "Where would you click for information about X?". The cool bit is that users answer these questions by putting points and notes directly on top of a screenshot, mockup, sketch or image.

In this way, the results of the test are displayed pictorially and the feel of the site or design can be accurately (and timely) gauged.

At the end of the day, Usabilla empowers any developer or designer to involve his users in the creative process without having to spend on endless (and expensive) tests that actually slow everything down. And Usabilla can be used in any stage of the design process, too.

“Get feedback on any wireframe, mockup or webpage in a blink.”

Developers and designers will find it invaluable owing to the time they will be able to save, not to mention the expenses they will avoid running into.
