The government’s Usability team has a profile of one of the most common and well-verified measures of a tech system’s usability, the System Usability Scale (SUS).

It’s a 10-question scale, that has an easy 5 option multiple choice for each question. Tallying up the score is more complex, but the site walks you through. The 10 questions are as follows.

1. I think that I would like to use this system frequently.
2. I found the system unnecessarily complex.
3. I thought the system was easy to use.
4. I think that I would need the support of a technical person to be able to use this system.
5. I found the various functions in this system were well integrated.
6. I thought there was too much inconsistency in this system.
7. I would imagine that most people would learn to use this system very quickly.
8. I found the system very cumbersome to use.
9. I felt very confident using the system.
10. I needed to learn a lot of things before I could get going with this system.
