JCPenney UX Case Study

This is a case study of JCPenney’s e-commerce user experience (UX) performance. It’s based on an exhaustive performance review of 813 design elements. 250 other sites have also been benchmarked for a complete picture of the e-commerce UX landscape.

JCPenney’s overall e-commerce UX performance is decent. On a positive note, JCPenney has good On-Site Search. This is, however, curtailed by broken Order Tracking & Returns and poor Customer Accounts performances.

First benchmarked in April 2012, and reviewed 25 times since then, most recently in February 2023.
