How to Conduct UX Research Without Users Access


The article considers the problem of UX research without access to users. The author notes that research without users is not a study, because it can be filled with bias and assumptions. However, in certain circumstances, this situation can arise due to legal restrictions, high costs or lack of users.
💡 In such situations, it is important to find the bypass paths for UX research. This may be to collect information about the painful points and problems that users face when using a product, even if stakeholders cannot provide time or resources for research, or confidentiality rules limit our communication with users.
