“We pulled only Lenovo product owners out of the screener for our mission, but have all other data back-logged."

“It was exciting because the concepts that we came up with for accessibility limitations very clearly were concepts participants were excited about even those without accessibility limitations. And this makes sense conceptually, theoretically: Designing for accessibility and designing for edge cases means innovating for everyone.”

“I use dscout when I want people to try something in the world, and then really come back and reflect with us on it.”

“With dscout's mobile Live interviews, you could tell folks felt comfortable sharing moments, experiences, and impressions more freely. There was a sense of intimacy and safety that's critical to what we're building.”

"[With dscout], I can get a lot of quality data quickly that captures user experience in the moment and helps me and my team understand the issues users are having."

“We’d recruited scouts in the path of Hurricane Irma before it made landfall. We were simultaneously watching reports from scouts come in at the same time as we were seeing events unfold on the news.”

“We had this observation that the technology was fairly complex and could only be totally understood by kids in the nine-to-ten-year age range. But that was also exactly when kids moved away from toys they played when they were younger. So we got to this conclusion in a week or …

“Mobile ethnography on the dscout platform allowed for tremendous depth of understanding about our users—more than any other project that I’ve worked on. We built relationships with our participants, and got prolonged exposure into their mental models, life situations and emotional journeys.”

"It was really important to us that we have a diverse sample, diverse in a wide range of ways, and that our data has some real breadth to it. We also knew that we wanted to have really deep conversations with parents and be able to contextualize their approaches to …

"That makes clear what many of us already knew, that it's not about our screens, but what we do with them that matters. What we didn't know was how parents in the US today actually feel about navigating media with their children, and that's where dscout enters the picture."

"It was so cool to give personality to a start, especially when standing up a new offering or feature. We had the business case, and now we had the human case. There is certainly optimization that's based on our quant data, and now we're injecting the story to ensure we're …

“It is so eye-opening to hear and see real people in their homes, their cars, wherever they do mobile work, talk about their pain points and what motivates them. How they're responding to different product or communications experiences. It's really undeniable, once you're exposed to it.”

"We couldn't think of a way better to do that other than using dscout and sending scouts to do it. We were able to select from a diverse pool of participants who live, work, and play near these six airport locations, and they were able to download the Enterprise app, …

“Getting kids to speak freely about things on their own time and in their own language can be a challenge, and that’s why we paired dscout’s mobile ethnographic approach with in-home interviews.”

“One of the differences between in-person research and remote research is the longitudinal aspect. With dscout and diary studies, we can engage with a particular group over a period of time. That’s so valuable for us in talking about things like money and work, because it’s not something that people …
