We've all heard of Unisys, but what do they really do? To learn some of the answers, join us at the November 11th meeting of the Usability Professionals' Association, Minnesota Chapter monthly meeting. Our host at Unisys, Kris Betcher, will review some recent projects and give us a tour of the Unisys usability lab.
As Unisys has continued their business transformation, Kris has worked hard
to ensure that usability is an integral component of their products and
services. Individuals that are new to usability will appreciate an
opportunity to see the formal usability testing lab and hear about recent
projects, while experienced usability practitioners will appreciate learning
how she succeeded in a company traditionally known by its mainframe
products.
Kris Betcher is a usability specialist in the Systems and Technology division of Unisys. She has been working to create better products at Unisys for the last three years. Recent projects include usability tests on a metering application developed to carry out Unisys' pay-as-you-go agreements for server use as well as tests on a variety of web applications.
