Company Background

Established in 2003, SciVisum has grown to become a significant player in the UK Web Monitoring and Application Testing market.

Bridging the gap between business and technology teams by providing a common language, in depth analysis, expert monitoring, intuitive reporting, and comprehensive client support, our portfolio of "dynamic user journey" based emulation, monitoring and analysis services enable business wide understanding of the impact of online performance on the bottom line.

Our clients range across all industry sectors, Local and Central Government and are of all sizes from  FT100 companies to SMEs.

When monitoring or testing website performance it is important that the software behaves like a user, not a program. Instead of merely checking availability of single pages it needs to take the same actions, in the same way, as real users, experiencing your unique combination of code and applications that occur throughout the interactive journey.

We support clients in improving online performance, creating positive user experience, facilitating cross departmental collaboration, and improving ROI through the provision of uniquely in-depth analysis, intuitive reporting of actionable information and a common language that encourages and facilitates cross departmental discussion.

Our portfolio of "dynamic user journey" based emulation, monitoring and analysis services enable business wide understanding of the impact of online performance on the bottomline.

SciVisum's provides technical teams a uniquely in-depth analysis of how their code and systems are performing, and allows the Business and Marketing managers to take control of the ongoing Customer Experience on the portals. SciVisum's success is the result of the combination of its in-house developed test engine, which provides flexible and fast scripting for complex multi-page Dynamic  User Journey web site testing, together with the experience of expert web testing staff.

The result is a portfolio of web effectiveness test services, centred around dynamic User Journey testing. This approach helps clients focus on reducing lost sales online, by continual improvement of evidence based User Experience metrics.

Clients tend to build an ongoing annual regime testing their business-critical User Journeys with SciVisum to help maintain the quality of their user experience. For example SV-Monitor continuous 24/7 monitoring - and a twice yearly SV-Load stress simulation test. Many companies have previously bought testing from other suppliers, and appreciate the fact that SciVisum's unique approach to emulate realistic, random-walk and complex Dynamic User Journey testing provides unique depth of testing, at costs and time scales to suit today's tighter project demands.

Developing great relationships is as important to us as developing great software.

Guided by this principle SciVisum is a small, lean company, with one of the highest client support staff to client ratios in the industry. We pride ourselves on being able to provide the best support and service possible. through regular, dedicated communication, in depth understanding of both technical and business requirements and knowledge of markets, business culture and industry trends.
