Researching Plone UI: Done!

by Laurens Kling — May 13, 2009

After three months of researching, interviewing, typing, concluding, checking and double checking, I can finaly release my research report on the current Plone UI. Enjoy.

Hello Plone.

In February, I started working at Four Digits as an intern to help out with the new Plone UI. I was to use my usability "expertise" to represent the end users of Plone. A couple of months later, I can present you my research on these end users and their view on the CMS. It contains summaries of the interviews taken, an usability guidelines check on Plone, my research conclusions and a summary of the subjects mentioned in these conclusions. There must be something of interest to you.

All comments or feedback are welcome and appreciated. Help me get a high grade and say it’s the best you’ve ever read.

This is just what I was looking for

Hi Laurens! First I'd like to thank you for sharing your study with us. I'm doing my own masters thesis also about Plone usability and this kind of research was something I've been desperately looking for to get some material to which I could compare my own results.

I'm going to give it a good read tomorrow, so I've got no feedback yet except this: it's the best usability research about Plone I've ever seen - and I don't even lie :)

Thanks
