Silverback — your guerilla user testing prayers answered
Our good friends over at Clearleft (home of Andy Budd, Jeremy Keith and Richard Rutter) have just released Silverback — a tool to help you do user testing quickly and effectively. When Andy was out here for Web Directions UX he gave a sneak preview to those doing his workshop, and now it is launched.
It’s Mac only, there’s a 30 day demo version, and you can purchase for just $USD50. It’s definitely worth a look, if you want to take your user testing to the next level.
Just watched the screencast — that looks excellent John. Just downloading the demo now. Funny — wonder why it’s taken so long for someone to write something like this, it seems so obvious. (In hindsight I guess.)
And cheers to clearleft for making the price affordable too. Often these things are too expensive to justify for a small shop.
