If Connectors Available
If ~~user feedback is connected:
- Pull support tickets, feature requests, and NPS responses to supplement research data
- Cross-reference themes with real user complaints and requests
If ~~product analytics is connected:
- Validate qualitative findings with usage data and behavioral metrics
- Quantify the impact of identified pain points
If ~~knowledge base is connected:
- Search for prior research studies and findings to compare against
- Publish the synthesis to your research repository
Tips
- Include raw quotes — Direct participant quotes make insights credible and memorable.
- Separate observations from interpretations — "5 of 8 users clicked the wrong button" is an observation. "The button placement is confusing" is an interpretation.
- Quantify where possible — "Most users" is vague. "7 of 10 users" is specific.
