The Dark Side of Bad SaaS Design

by

The development of digital technologies has radically changed approaches to business process organization. Cloud solutions and software as a service (SaaS) have become integral parts of the working ecosystems of companies of various sizes and profiles.

Interface quality is becoming a key factor of product success in the context of fierce competition and ever-increasing user expectations. Bad SaaS design can become a critical barrier between user and functionality, turning even the most innovative solutions into a source of constant stress and loss of productivity. 

User experience determines a product’s usability and overall perceived value. The slightest UX miscalculations can instantly reduce user loyalty and lead to customer churn.

by

Most users don’t even think about how to make the work algorithm of mobile applications easy and comfortable to use.

Every action that is done by pressing on a certain part of the screen and all of the subsequent processes are maintained by User Experience (UX). User Interface (UI) is capable of making the design look nice and satisfying for most inquiries.

Why do these 2 operational elements play a significant role in development and are they “must-have” of it? [Read more…] about UX/UI Design in the Promotion of Mobile Apps

Scurrying cockroaches help researchers steady staggering robots

by

Ew, a cockroach! But it zips off before the swatter appears. Now, researchers have leveraged the bug’s superb scurrying skills to create a cleverly simple method to assess and improve locomotion in robots.

Normally, tedious modeling of mechanics, electronics, and information science is required to understand how insects’ or robots’ moving parts coordinate smoothly to take them places.

But in a new study, biomechanics researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology boiled down the sprints of cockroaches to handy principles and equations they then used to make a test robot amble about better. [Read more…] about Scurrying cockroaches help researchers steady staggering robots
