About the Talks
When AB Tests Aren't Enough: Measuring Success for the Enterprise
by Scott Castle
When measuring the success of really basic products, you're looking mostly at clicks: did someone click this, or didn't they? And that defines success. But for more complex B2B platforms, clickstreams are not as much of a direct indicator of success. AB tests don't tell the full story. Periscope Data's Head of Product Scott Castle will share a handful of innovative ways that his team measures product success — beyond just looking at usage data, they are trying to define features and workflow changes that actually convert new business. By thinking differently about how they measure "use" of a product to include policies, settings, user segments and more, his team is able to map product changes more directly to sales penetration and driving revenue for the business.
Design for the Developer Experience (DX)
by Kevin "Web" Page
If you have ever designed for a developer, you may have heard the phrase "developers are technical, they won't mind the complex design experience." As user experience designers, we strive to bring human-centered design to the developer experience. Whether you are designing a developer hub or a third-party app developer marketplace, you will learn how to build a simply delightful developer experience. From APIs to integrations to app stores, come hear from what matters most for developer experiences. It's time to make the developer experience better for humans not just machines.
