Gamma UX Case Study
This is a case study of Gamma’s e-commerce user experience (UX) performance. It’s based on an exhaustive performance review of 495 design elements. 250 other sites have also been benchmarked for a complete picture of the e-commerce UX landscape.
Gamma’s overall e-commerce UX performance is decent. This is mainly due to good Customer Accounts and On-Site Search while simultaneously having mediocre Cart & Checkout.
First benchmarked in September 2022.
