  • Phase: Discovery

    Audience and tool used

    • 10 customers on UserZoom

    Focus

    • How do users feel about third-party logins, would they use it
    • Mandatory Multiple Factors Authentication (MFA) for an account
    • Account locked aftet too many login attempt
    • Verification time

    What we discovered

    • The most popular third-party sign-in options were Google and Microsoft, but 40% of users said they wouldn’t use any third-party options for a business account
    • All users supported the idea of having MFA on a business account, but 60% thought it should be optional rather than mandatory
    • If a user’s account gets locked because they entered an incorrect password too many times, most expect to be able to request a password reset via email rather than phoning someone
    • Most users aren’t willing to wait very long for their account to be verified, though they will wait slightly longer if they are applying for funding than business support
