MIDS is a new word in the world of interface design. MIDS works according to the best practice methods in usability area, covers the whole design and testing cycle, and therefore is very efficient. What took us hours, days, and sometimes weeks – now is possible within minutes. We are satisfied with MIDS, and we have requested G5 to add the component to manage the testing process for remote laboratories – so we can get relevant customer data from far away parts of the country.”
