BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the executive VP of Pegnato Roof Intelligence Network, LLC, a consulting company. We’ve built a network to connect large national brands to the best local roofing contractors in the business, with all transactions curated and data warehoused by our platform.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with WebMedia?

We needed help conducting an independent validation of the UX and design direction of our new website during its development phase. We also needed to generate actionable, evidence-based insights that would secure executive buy-in and ensure our final platform was strategically aligned with both user needs and business goals.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

WebMedia conducted a targeted evaluation of our in-development website. Their scope was to assess the platform's usability and alignment with user needs, providing expert insights to guide the final stages of development. The engagement was structured in three key phases:

• Planning & Alignment: We began by collaboratively reviewing and approving their proposed testing methodology and project timeline.
• Execution & Analysis: WebMedia then performed a dual-faceted assessment. First, they conducted a heuristic evaluation against established usability principles. Then, they conducted a series of user interviews with participants recruited from our target segments, supplemented by their own non-expert users.
• Synthesis & Reporting: Finally, they analyzed the collected data to synthesize key user perspectives and formulate actionable recommendations.

WebMedia provided concrete, tangible deliverables. The main outputs from their engagement were:

• A Written Heuristic Evaluation Report: This was a formal document where their experts systematically reviewed the website against established usability principles. The report specifically noted three key areas for improvement with detailed rationale.
• A Synthesis of User Perspectives: Following the user interviews, WebMedia delivered a summary (likely in a written format) that extracted and reported the core viewpoints, pain points, and behaviors of the different test users.
• A Prioritized List of Strategic Recommendations: This was a crucial deliverable, likely in the form of a list or a section within a final report. It provided actionable steps to address the findings from both the heuristic evaluation and the user interviews.

What is the team composition?

We worked with 2–5 teammates from WebMedia.

How did you come to work with WebMedia?

We found them on Clutch. We chose them for their proven expertise in user-centered design validation. Their disciplined approach to project management and their commitment to delivering actionable insights, rather than just data, set them apart from other options we reviewed.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around $20,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from January–July 2025.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Our engagement with WebMedia delivered concrete value through several key outcomes:

• Strategic Validation & Executive Alignment: WebMedia successfully validated the strategic direction of our new website, providing the data-driven evidence needed to secure and maintain executive buy-in for the project. This eliminated subjective debates about design and functionality, replacing them with objective user data to guide decision-making.
• Actionable Insights for Product Roadmap: WebMedia uncovered a significant number of specific, actionable usability insights. They provided a prioritized list of recommendations that clearly distinguished between quick wins and longer-term strategic improvements, allowing for efficient resource allocation.
• Risk Mitigation Before Launch: WebMedia identified and documented three key areas for improvement through a formal heuristic evaluation. This allowed us to address critical usability issues before the public launch, reducing the risk of post-launch fixes and negative user feedback.
• Enhanced User-Centricity: We moved from assumptions to a deep, qualitative understanding of user needs. WebMedia provided a synthesized report on user perspectives that provided an evidence-based foundation for all future design and development decisions.

How did WebMedia perform from a project management standpoint?

WebMedia's project management was a standout strength of their engagement. Their approach was characterized by professionalism, transparency, and reliability. They implemented Jira for task tracking, which provided our team with clear, real-time visibility into their workflow, progress, and timelines. This eliminated guesswork and kept everyone aligned.

Moreover, their proactive communication made it clear what they were doing and when they were doing it. This level of ongoing communication fostered a strong, collaborative partnership. Overall, the project was well planned, which contributed significantly to its smooth execution.

What did you find most impressive about them?

WebMedia's unflinching clarity and honesty were impressive. They treated the project as a partnership, not just a project. Additionally, they were experts at synthesizing data into action.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I was very satisfied with their work.
