Naview Beta
June 3rd, 2010
Last month Naview went into a beta phase. Congrats! As mentioned earlier, the tool allows designers to quickly auto generate a multi level and fully functional navigation from a text file or an XLS spreadsheet. With the new beta version, Jussi, packed in a few extra features that also allow you to test the navigation with end users and measure results. This is done through surveys that can be easily setup and tested remotely. Since the application is in beta, there is an additional “early access” plan to the already existing free plan and both provide a nice way to get a better sense of how it all works.
Give it a shot and try it out.

Hi Jakub,
thanks for featuring Naview in Wireframes Magazine once again! I am sure your readers will find it useful.
Cheers, Jussi

It looks cool, but I’m always reluctant to try out services before i know what the pricing will be. If it turns out to be more than I’m willing to pay, hooray my time was wasted. I’m probably in the minority on this but if a price can’t be set, it’s not ready for public eyes.

Hi Todd,
fair point and I appreciate your comment. A lot of the key functionality is also offered on the Free plan, which will remain available once the commercial plans and pricing are out (see Naview Plans and Signup).
In terms of pricing you may want to look at some of the main competitors as listed in this blog post from last year: Test your information architecture using C-Inspector. We will be working out our pricing in this context.
Cheers, Jussi
