Étienne Garbugli (Usability Specialist)’s Summary
Kotsego are experts in Usability and Interaction Design.
Our team of experienced online media professionals are there to help you meet your businesses communication goals and to optimise your customer's online experience.
Usability can often be overlooked or undervalued, yet did you know that up to 70% of web traffic is lost due to lack of considered planning around the users experience online. That could present a substantial loss of tangible revenue generation and potentially damage your public relations strategy.
Kotsego are passionate about creating the best experience for your customers. We understand the importance of working together as a team with your developers, PR and marketing departments as well as the leaders of your business to achieve your desired outcome: to have the best online presence in your field.
