Knowing what to fix on your site and how to fix it can be time-consuming and confusing.
Ecommerce teams have relied on user-behavior analytics tools to guide their UX priorities. While these tools have highlighted where conversion problems occur, they don’t provide insight into why users abandon a site and how to fix it.
Many product, growth, and UX teams are favoring speed and iterative testing to improve site conversions, deprioritizing qualitative user research to understand the root cause of site abandonment.
This has made UX decisions reactive and surface level, leading to misaligned UX priorities and a lot of guesswork.
In fact, the UX Collective surveyed 751 UX/UI and Product designers in 2025, and over half of them ranked these as the top 2 problems they face in their work:
- Having limited ability to conduct research and get feedback on their work
- Lacking a strategic approach to UX
Despite the UX function being a major driver of engagement and conversion for online experiences, without a UX strategy, stakeholder alignment, or user research, UX initiatives lack time-to-ROI.
This is why we built UX-Ray 2.0, to empower teams to make high-impact UX improvements with research-backed UX insights without compromising on speed.
Here's a video walkthrough of how UX-Ray 2.0 works.
