A brilliant summarization
–    Just giving Usability( as a discipline) cannot and will not get customers.

- Usability is no rocket science, it’s a constituent of simple methods worked to get simpler solutions.

- Usability is mandatory for all corporate who keep customers/users as a priority, and it does not necessarily mean employing a usability professional

- Usability is multi-professional, it involves dedication of people from different professions and different skillets to ensure the user is at the helm
