Finding developers and designers for your projects can be tough stuff. Trying to find people to help do any form of usability testing or user experience evaluation isn’t even an option for many of us.
And with such a new field in terms of design in the mobile space we can use all the help available to us!
Well, it is available. Check it out…
Enter Concept Feedback. It’s a free service that makes it incredibly easy to crowdsource your project for feedback.
The cool thing about it (y’know, aside from being free) is that it isn’t simply limited to web sites. You can get feedback regarding advertisements, logos, printed material, web applications, sites, etc.
I spent some time on the site exploring other projects users have submitted as well as feedback provided by the community. I was impressed at the quality of the answers, respect, and knowledge demonstrated by everyone.
Good stuff.
That’s pretty cool. I’ll have to check it out.
Definitely. Free, respectful critiques ftw.
Looks really helpful for independents.
Exactly.
Sweet! Ok, I know you run this on More Than Useless. Have you gotten good feedback? I’m glad to see that these have worked well in the past, but I hardly ever fill them out. I know I don’t represent the average internet user though too.
I actually run Skribit on my site. It’s designed for people to suggest topics for you to write about, but people have been using it as a way to submit usability problems they’ve had (puaha..).
Concept Feedback is more of you submit your design or project for others to evaluate and they’ll make suggestions based on what they see or whatever you ask them to critique.
I like this. And it’s a step up from Church Marketing Lab- or at least a lateral step, or option.
I like CML, but sometimes people are too nice and don’t shoot it straight. If it sucks, say so!
