Ease of Use Most Important Factor When Selecting Software According To New Survey By Desktop Alert System

    ALEXANDRIA, VA, May 03, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A brand new survey carried out by DeskAlert as part of its research into business communications culture has found that ease of use is one the most important factors for corporations when selecting a new software service.

In its latest survey, the desktop alert system asked its clients to clarify their decision making criteria when faced with the need to procure a new software product. The surprising results showed that when an organization makes a decision to purchase a new software program the deciding factor is rarely cost alone. The study showed that most decision makes prize ease of use above budget with many also prioritizing how easy the platform is to access and how easy it is to understand.

Anton Vdovin, Project Manager at DeskAlerts, said, "We were driven to investigate what influencers an organization to select a particular software product after we noticed that more and more of our customers were asking how easy a solution is to access and understand. Of course, communication in business is all about clarity so it makes sense that decision makers want this same peace of mind when it comes to selecting their tools. Our survey showed that there is a lack of user friendly solutions in the corporate sector. Many of those we spoke to were frustrated and felt that sometimes, it seemed that no one cared about making a program that coupled performance with ease of use for all levels and abilities.
