Under Armour + Qualtrics

How Under Armour builds breakthrough products

Under Armour knows that if you’re going to be a new player in an existing category, you need to come with breakthrough product that actually changes the game. And you can’t develop breakthrough product without experience data from actual customers. That’s why Under Armour turned to Qualtrics XM.

With our HOVR line, we’ve gained a foothold in a space we didn’t have before. Now we can do that again, and again, and again.
