UX Research involves engaging directly with users to understand their expectations and needs. It examines the preferences, concerns, and behaviours of a target population to improve the user experience of a company’s digital products, services and touchpoints.

This process relies on both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. User experience has become a crucial focus for brands, as it plays a vital role in meeting user needs and delivering seamless, enjoyable experiences on digital media.

With this expansion, Bilendi will enrich its portfolio of technologies and expertise with UX research solutions and strengthen Bilendi’s positioning as the European key player for data collection and insights. Bilendi clients will have access to UX research solutions and a DIY platform to recruit UX testers throughout Europe.
