A Changeover Happens

UX: Consumer brands changed B2B user expectations.

Companies like Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Netflix have massively shaped our expectations around strong design, intuitive interfaces and ease of use.

Social & mobile apps provide highly visual content and near instant feedback and gratification.

Consumer UX = B2B UX.
B2B’s “good enough” approach to design and UX is no longer good enough. B2B is now held to the same consumer standards.
