Building and working with user panels

A user panel is the key to having endless, reliable access to users. Join us as two experts join forces to share their experiences with building and working with user panels at their respective companies.

The talk

User research is at the core of creating great products that meet users’ needs. But before you can get your hands on those fantastic qualitative insights you need to figure out how to recruit users. Building a user panel is an incredibly valuable way to solve this challenge. It is much easier to get started than you might think and you will get so much value in return!
