Usability Lab Tours
Oracle’s Usability Labs are the most comprehensive labs devoted to database technology and applications in the enterprise software space. All major Applications, Tools, and Server products are tested at the labs. Approximately 50 new products and upgrades are tested every year. The results are reported to the product development teams to make improvements before products ship. There is a technical staff dedicated to lab operations and maintenance. This resource is open to all within Oracle who need user testing facilities for Oracle products. We invite our customers to tour the labs to learn more.
