Analyze user behavior

Frustration

5 minutes

Now let’s see how the same type of analysis can help us understand if our end users are experiencing friction interacting with the application.

  1. What does this chart tell us?
  2. Can you tell why users are expressing frustration?

Because we are monitoring these frustration signals, we can take steps to improve our application and its content, and hopefully see those frustration signals drop over time. The better we can optimize our application, the happier our end users will be, and the more successful they will be.

Speaking of frustration, let’s now take a look at how to understand what’s going on when our end users are not able to do what we expect them to do.
