With the help of crowdtesting services, Testbirds optimizes digital products, from apps and websites all the way to IoT applications, regarding UX and quality aspects. For KELLER, Testbirds conducted a customer journey test of the two online stores Keller x and Keller Sports. The entire customer journey, from the first point of the shopping experience to the return and refund process, was examined in terms of user-friendliness. The study included 7 use cases, 12 open questions, and 9 rating questions, which were processed by the testers with Unmoderated Usability Tests and written feedback.

Client's needs
The KELLER business model was developed with the mission of differentiating itself from the market by way of a special focus on customer needs. To further expand this focus on customer centricity, an important requirement was that the testers fit exactly to the KELLER target group profile and meet predefined criteria such as sports and fashion affinity.
“With the help of Testbirds, we wanted to look into the heads of our target group and transfer their feedback into further optimizations of the online stores – based on their real wishes and needs instead of assumptions. We are interested in the entire customer journey, even beyond the online shopping experience.”
The aim of the study was to find out how customers experience KELLER online shopping overall and to identify any difficulties they encounter during the process. Of particular interest were the time periods between the individual phases of the customer journey and whether the information available to the testers was sufficient.
Test setup
With the help of crowdtesting services, Testbirds optimizes digital products, from apps and websites all the way to IoT applications, regarding UX and quality aspects. For KELLER, Testbirds conducted a customer journey test of the two online stores Keller x and Keller Sports. The entire customer journey, from the first point of the shopping experience to the return and refund process, was examined in terms of user-friendliness. The study included 7 use cases, 12 open questions, and 9 rating questions, which were processed by the testers with Unmoderated Usability Tests and written feedback.
Results
The test conducted provided KELLER with detailed results for seven phases of their customer journey in the two online stores that were tested:
The evaluation of the Unmoderated Usability Tests showed detailed shopping behavior based on the chosen click paths. Positive and negative feedback from the testers was accumulated and evaluated for the areas of design, usability, and other aspects. The written feedback was analyzed and the overall results were summarized in a final report. Overall, core elements of the customer journey, especially, were positively highlighted, for example the clear, appealing structure of the homepage and the ordering process. The testers see potential for optimization primarily in details of the customer journey.
“The positive feedback validates our work and shows that we are already doing a lot of things right. However, functioning core elements by no means constitute a perfect customer journey – in keeping with the motto ‘details matter’, it‘s often the little things that make the difference and even decide whether a repurchase happens. This is exactly why the Testbirds insights are so important to us.” “We are very happy with the results and can‘t wait to implement the feedback and further optimize our customer experience. I‘m sure this is the first of many projects to come with Testbirds!”
