How We Test & Rate Products
We test and review many gadgets, software, services, and products to assist you in make complex tech-buying decisions easier. Here’s how we test products.
How We Test
We rates products with two questions in mind: Would I recommend this to a friend, and if so, who is the right audience to buy it? We will tell you whether an alternative is better or worse, and in what ways. We also find out what owners of these products are saying, such as by analyzing user reviews, to further inform your next purchase.
What Do our Ratings Mean?
On Technodus, all products are rated on a scale of 1 to 5, where higher is better. Products may also receive an Favorites pick label, which marks them as highly recommended.
We rate our products on five (5) key criteria taking into consideration the specific attributes of a particular product type. We use these five criteria to tabulate the products rating out of 5.
Rating Criteria
- Design & Esthetics | How does the product look and feel? Is it well-built or cheap to the touch?
- Features | Does it have the features and functionality that we expect/want?
- User Experience | What is the user experience like? How easy is it to use? Is it intuitive?
- Performance | How well does it function? Do all features perform as advertised?
- Value | Is the price a good value when weighed against all other criteria?
Rating Values
- Aspiring for perfection | This product has little room to get better and is most likely a best in class option.
- Great ROI | This product is a great return on your investment
- Worth Contemplating | If you’re willing to sacrifice one or more of the criteria above, this might be a pick worth considering for your purchase
- Inferior, unfit, & unworthy | When all is considered, this product is not worth the money.
- Epic Fail | Avoid this ridiculously horrendous product
Best Picks & Use-Case Recommendations
Our Best Picks lists don’t just name our top overall picks, but also make specific, tailored recommendations for different scenarios. For example, we pick the best Laptops in different sizes and price ranges, and look at the best home automations both for beginners and advanced users. Ultimately, we judge products based on what they’re trying to accomplish as well as how well they reach their target audience, thus giving shoppers a complete picture of not only whether a product is good or great but whether it’s good or great for them.
Editorial Independence
Our reviews and the products we cover are entirely independent of any external influence. While we do accept advertising and provide buy buttons for readers’ convenience, these revenue-related aspects are managed solely by Technodus. Rest assured that product brands nor advertisers have any influence on our review content or coverage. Our commitment to providing unbiased and objective reviews remains steadfast and aligns with our mission.
