Heat Maps: (Standard, Timed, Sticky Note)
There are three different types of Heat Maps called Heat Map (standard), Timed Heat Map and Sticky Note:
- Standard: Users are able to place markers on an image share with them. You can create categories you want users to mark on the stimuli – like/dislike, where would you click to edit your card, etc.
- Timed: The image is blacked out and has a count-down timer when users click to begin. With this Heat Map option, you have the ability to time how long it takes and in what order users find and mark options on the stimuli. This is used for testing A/B web page mock-ups, brand preference and so forth.
- Sticky Note: Allows users to add a "Sticky Note" to each marker they place to add the "why" to the marker and context to your analysis.
