What People Are Saying

Our team had a truly wonderful experience collaborating with the students, who were impressively well-versed in industry standards and practices. Their design intuition was remarkable, and they provided invaluable insights and data that helped us greatly improve our web-based app. We were particularly impressed by their world-class UX research methodology. Highly recommended!

Thanks to Pratt students, we were able to improve website accessibility, enhance user experience and grow our digital footprint. As a grassroots organization that pours all its resources into the community we serve, we could not have afforded the beautiful redesign makeover.

I've always heard great things about the Pratt team, and the opportunity to work with them far exceeded my expectations. The students engaged with our brand fully and thoughtfully, and their recommendations are already central to many conversations about changes to our site.

We received actionable and insightful UX feedback on our app. The suggestions were thorough and well thought out, and we were already able to implement most of them quickly. The feedback has helped us improve our app significantly and I will definitely consider working with Pratt students again in the future.

I am always surprised by the professional quality of work Pratt students produce. Engram has worked three semesters with the DX Center, and the student’s work is always detailed, insightful, and helpful. Always a pleasure working with Pratt students!

The team at Pratt Institute did a fantastic job conducting a usability study for our organization. Their recommendations have already started meaningful conversations at our organization. We were very impressed and appreciative with their work!

This opportunity to work with Pratt students form the Center for Digital Experiences was a huge gift. Their engagement with our company and brand was exceedingly thorough and we left the experience with a whole array of new tools to help us clarify our messaging and make our content work a lot smarter.
