What is User Experience Design?
Part OneKagonya AworiNairobi, Kenya
What is UX?"User experience" encompasses all
aspects of the end-user's interaction with the company, its
services, and its products.
The first requirement for an exemplary user experience is to meet
the exact needs of the customer……
products that are a joy to own, a joy to use…..
True user experience goes far beyond giving customers what they say they want, or providing
checklist features.”
Don Norman
