2018 Top 10 Connector Suppliers for Overall Website Usability

Bishop & Associates recently completed its biennial US customer survey, in which a total of 395 customers evaluated 42 connector manufacturers on a range of important issues. They answered 17 questions relating to quality, pricing, delivery, lead times, technical support, and more. Thirty-one companies received sufficient evaluations to remain in the final report.

To measure overall website usability Bishop & Associates asked the following questions:

  • What is your overall satisfaction with the company website?
  • How do you rate the ease of finding connector products on the website?
  • Is there sufficient availability of technical documentation and is it easily accessible on the website?
  • Are you satisfied with the process of placing of orders electronically?

In relation to the four questions above, the survey participants were asked: What is your level of satisfaction with the overall website usability? They were asked to choose one of the following:

  • 6 = Extremely satisfied
  • 5 = Very satisfied
  • 4 = Satisfied
  • 3 = Dissatisfied
  • 2 = Very dissatisfied
  • 1 = Extremely dissatisfied

The following table identifies the 2018 Top 10 Connector Suppliers for Overall Website Usability ranked by average score.
