Technology/Application Information
The Business Challenge

Bookit.com is an online travel company that strives to be the leader at providing users a more intuitive travel booking experience with more relevant results. Because of this determination, the company had a sense that the travel reservation process may need tweaking to meet this goal. It had always kept a close eye on analytics but wanted a better look into what the user was experiencing on the site and a professional opinion on how to make the user experience even better through fairly quick fixes with immediate value.  

Bookit.com came to Amadeus Consulting for a user experience code audit because of our extensive e-commerce experience. Amadeus Consulting provided Bookit.com with clear documentation of the thoughtful process engaged in when conducting a code or user experience audit. Bookit.com appreciated the objective rankings of various characteristics of the site as well as the useful feedback of certain areas related to e-commerce we provide.

Bookit.com wanted to reduce the number of people who had ended their session halfway through the booking process. It knew that something needed to be improved in the process so as not to lose customers.



The Solution

Using our user experience auditing process, Amadeus Consulting provided many recommendations both in writing and over the phone that would provide immediate value to the client. We helped Bookit.com to drastically improve the usability of the site as well as overall website analytics. In fact, in its first implementation of the recommendations provided, Bookit.com improved its home page bounce rate by 20 percent!

Bookit.com was extremely pleased by the success of the user experience audit and the extremely cost-efficient solution with immediate return on investment.
