Customers buy your value proposition, but what they actually get is the user experience (UX). How well you deliver the latter is crucial to the success of your product or service. While companies like Intuit, W-Hotels, and of course Apple, have UX baked into their corporate DNA, others like Salesforce.com, Cisco, even the Obama 2012 campaign are waking up to the importance of a compelling user experience. So much so, that they've made it part of their core competencies.
