The competition never sleeps
Don’t limit yourself by ignoring your competitors while testing the UX of your product. Your competition is part of the real-world – whether you like it or not.
When researching products or services they’re interested in, no one will only visit your website, app, or digital product – they’ll use any information they can get their hands on.

In order to offer great digital products, and especially when developing a new one, you should know where your product stands in the market and understand the strengths and weaknesses of both your competition and yourself.
How exactly does my software differ from that of my competitors? What strengths does my app have and in what way is my competition superior? Why do my customers visit a certain website more often than others? To gain a competitive advantage and be able to survive in an oversaturated marketplace, it’s vital to take a closer look at the competition and develop solid market intelligence.

What is a Competitor Analysis?
Competitor Analysis is the general term for any kind of analysis, research, or comparison you can conduct to find out what your competitors do in relation to yourself.
Extensive market analysis is made easy thanks to new software and technology, allowing you to know more about your competition than ever before. In order to stay ahead of your competition and not get left behind, you should scan the competitive landscape regularly.
The reasons for competitor research can be of a wide variety: the goal could be to learn more about their branding, pricing, marketing, or strategy in general, but UX and conversion rate optimization are also becoming more and more important in the competitive matrix.
In the field of UX, a Competitor Analysis might answer questions like:
- What are the most important USPs for my customers compared to those of my biggest competitors?
- Which values and attributes do customers link to my brand?
- How do users perceive the UX of my digital product compared to that of my competition?
How it looks in practice
One of our clients noticed that family holidays and active tours were booked often on their website, but city trip bookings were less popular. To investigate the reasons why, their own website was compared to the websites of their three biggest competitors.
30 crowdtesters that matched their target group were consulted. To avoid biased results, the testers were not told who the client was. Central characteristics such as navigation structure, filters and search functions were compared. In addition, special attention was given to the booking and payment systems.
The results showed that the target group requires more flexibility when booking trips and that the available payment methods did not meet their needs. The competitor analysis also provided valuable design insights for the upcoming relaunch.
