Observations

Researchers Kaapo Heikkinen and Ari-Jaakko Järvinen have studied Multimedia Messaging Services in the Business-to-Business sector, mainly focusing on MMS enhanced problem solving in the business environment. Special issues include, but are not limited to, the following key areas: does MMS enable more efficient problem solving; in what kind of problem solving situations MMS is most likely to be applied; in what stages of problem solving MMS provide the highest perceived value; and what are the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that MMS possess in organizational problem solving processes.

Plans

Special focus in this study will be on the user experience and mobile service usability in a wireless environment. Researcher Anssi Mattila will examine the impact of technology, the distribution channel and the customer's perception of mobile Internet service usability. One such example includes the difficulties encountered when moving existing fixed-line products over the new wireless channels.

Researcher Anja Härkönen has joined this project as a Ph.D. candidate. By the year 2020 mature customers (a.k.a customers over 65 years of age) will be the largest, most heterogeneous yet least studied customer segment. Many mature customers are, in fact, willing to use Internet-based services but feel that it is somehow socially unacceptable for them to use such services. By developing servicesthat also attract mature customers, critical penetration rates for profitable mobile services can be reached.

Tässä hankkeessa luodaan perusteet asiakkaan saumattomalle käyttökokemukselle sähköisessä palveluympäristössä. Hankkeessa kartoitetaan muun muassa sitä, millä rajoitteilla olemassa olevat palvelut on mahdollista siirtää mobiiliin ympäristöön niiden käytettävyyden kärsimättä. Teknologian, jakelukanavan ja asiakkaan henkilökohtaisten ominaisuuksien vaikutus koettuun käytettävyyteen määritellään. Erityinen paino on ikääntyvien asiakkaiden erityistarpeille, ja niiden soveltamisessa massamarkkinoille. Hanke tuottaa käytännön työkaluja tuotekehityksen ja erityisesti käytettävyyden kehittämisen tueksi sekä kuluttaja- että yritysmarkkinoilla.
