UserTesting® was founded in 2007, made its IPO market debut in November 2021, and was acquired by Thoma Bravo in January 2023, to merge with Thoma Bravo portfolio company UserZoom. The combination is now operating under the UserTesting brand at $300M in revenue and growing, supporting both the UserTesting and UserZoom product lines. UserTesting is headquartered in San Francisco, California, with regional offices in Atlanta, Denver, Barcelona, Edinburgh, London, Manchester, Paris, and Singapore. A trusted company by top brands for 15+ years, UserTesting has over 2,500 customers in 45 countries including more than half of the world’s top 100 most valuable brands according to Forbes. 

A leader in video-based human insight and UX research, we believe the path to human understanding and great experiences starts with shared insight—seeing and hearing how another person engages with the world around them and taking in their perspective. We’re for capturing the kind of human responses that don’t show up in a spreadsheet. This is what inspires us, and it’s how we enable companies to connect with their audiences, authentically, through an experience that’s uniquely, and intentionally, human.

Using our powerful software combined with the industry’s most diverse contributor network, our customers can quickly target their audience, and get a vivid, first-hand view of what their customers are thinking and experiencing with Customer Experience Narratives (CxNs), make decisions with confidence, and measure impact. UserTesting’s industry-leading solutions enable companies to get rapid feedback and UX insights on all types of customer interactions and experiences: websites, mobile apps, prototypes, campaigns, real world experiences, and more. A recent Forrester study found the ROI of using UserTesting to be 655%!

We’re proud to have been named to the SF Business Times Best Places to Work in the Bay Area 2022, Inc. Best-Led Companies of 2022 and the Fortune Best Workplaces in the Bay Area 2022 lists, along with having received a variety of additional workplace and corporate growth awards. Choosing to join our team means being part of a passionate group focused on transforming the way companies understand their customers and build better products and experiences. Come join us and help us build the engine for human understanding!
