User Research & the Product Cycle with Deezer and Spideo

***RSVP on EventBrite: https://prdct.school/2Z4Fkd3 ***

Join us at Product School new event in Paris!

Ujala will give you a full overview of what User Research encompasses, and what methodologies can be used to gather data that help create better products. She will explain how the research was started leading to its current scope at Deezer, supported by Vladimir who will detail how UX research, like usability testing, has become an ingrained part of the product development process at Deezer.

Together with Elize, they will elaborate more in-depth on a concrete use case for Flow and its new experience, a feature on which the three of them worked together: the data they collected, the issues they faced, the solution that was built and iterations they have worked on after. When people talk about "it takes a village", it definitely resonates with the product development process.

Elize will then go into more detail to explain how working with recommender systems & APIs as a product affects the end-user, the risks of the echo chamber and balancing this with serendipity. She can show examples of how to apply transparency when working with user data.
