SUMI
Also known as: Software Usability Measurement Inventory
A standardised questionnaire-based method for measuring software usability from the end user perspective. SUMI assesses five dimensions: efficiency, affect (user satisfaction), helpfulness, control, and learnability. In accessibility contexts, SUMI can be adapted alongside accessibility-specific evaluation criteria to provide a comprehensive picture of how usable and accessible a product is for people with disabilities, bridging the gap between pure standards compliance and real-world user experience.
