This is a case study of AbCam’s e-commerce user experience (UX) performance. It’s based on an exhaustive performance review of 500 design elements. 250 other sites have also been benchmarked for a complete picture of the e-commerce UX landscape.
AbCam’s overall e-commerce UX performance is mediocre. This is mainly due to broken Cart & Checkout and poor Mobile Web performances.
First benchmarked in October 2022.
