What is the System Usability Scale (SUS)?

The System Usability Scale (SUS) was developed in 1986, that’s 5 years before the first website went live! This tried and tested method has been used to evaluate the usability of products and services for over 30 years and remains a proven and dependable method. It remains popular due to its simple nature, 10 fixed usability questions and decades of data to determine what a good score is.

Questions you can answer with a SUS survey
