Information Architecture
The foundation of understanding how users find their way around a website or process. Through several UCD techniques, we can help you define an IA that creates a recognizable 'scent' for your users.
Without the right architecture—the conceptual structure and organization of the sites—user have difficulty with sites and applications. Proper definition of the architecture set the foundation, facilitating the navigation and use of site features.
-
User Research
Know "thy user's needs" through interviews and persona methods.
Many techniques were used to thoroughly understand users and their needs before initiating designs on these projects.
-
Expert Review
Applying "tried and true" principals to your current website or application to find the low hanging fruit that you can address and improve the usability of the experience.
Experts evaluated websites and applications to determine compliance with recognized principles to quickly—and often less expensively—address and improve usability.
-
Rapid Prototyping
Low or High Fidelity Prototypes - we can rapidly prototype to any level of fidelity, from wireframes to pixel-perfect, from static clickthroughs to fully functional simulations. Over the course of a project, we evolve prototypes to adapt to changing business needs and project phases.
Ranging from a static framework to highly-functional simulations, prototypes were rapidly iterated over the course of the projects to better understand requirements and satisfy user needs. Early identification of issues helped reduce the time and cost of actual development.

Web Application Design
Rich internet application (RIA) functionality is becoming more commonly used in all types of applications. We have successfully mastered the latest features of iRise 7, and have used them in real projects to effectively simulate Web 2.0 functionality.
Web 2.0 functionality, including rich internet applications, is more commonly used in all types of applications. Id8’s mastery of the latest iRise features produced effective simulations.
-
Interaction Design
Rich internet application (RIA)functionality is becoming more commonly used in all types of applications. We have successfully mastered the latest features of iRise 6, and have used them in real projects to effectively simulate Web 2.0 functionality.
id8 defined the interaction design, how the product or service responds to the user, thereby minimizing user frustration and increasing user satisfaction and productivity.

Visual Design
Our team includes experienced graphic designers who can create compelling user interfaces that complement functionality and enhance usability.
Our experienced graphic designers created compelling user interfaces to complement functionality and enhance usability.
-
Usability Testing
An excellent process to validate the usefulness of a product. We recommend one on one prototype testing to gather useful information and improve the user experience.
Reliable validation of product usability involved observation and feedback as users navigated and performed tasks on product simulations. The observation of one user at a time across multiple sessions and users provided comprehensive and reliable information for product improvement.

Advanced iRise Training
We have deep understanding of this tool and can mentor your team to effectively use it.
Taking advantage of our deep mastery of iRise, id8 mentored teams and enhanced their effective use of the tool.
