There is the qualitative using of modular grid in page makeup
http://take.ms/rmeJWN
It looks undifferentiated on different operating systems and internet browsers.
http://take.ms/oSw12F
Realised qualitative autodaptivity of page makeup.
http://take.ms/NaDcYv
Full package of photographs are available by following link: http://browsershots.org/http://russia.emc.com/index.htm.
Problematics
http://take.ms/nGnlNO
In the whole, makeup requests update, especially by part of autoadaptivity, because recovery of the page from small to large display arises with mistakes.
Prototype models and composition
Aside from main page*, design accomplished in light range of colors, according to conception web 2.0 (soft colours)
* main page is overbusy of EMC+ block
Web site uses modular grid, that is clearly visible on the main page.
Design layout of main and secondary pages isnt uniform and differs by width (main 980px, secondary 1000px), order of menu items and possible presence of menu. Its clearly visible by covering layout of main or secondary page.
http://take.ms/Ei6CA
From section to section composition and structure of layout is greatly differ and bouncing.
Equivalent by context elements differs graphically on the same page or changing from page to page.
For example, block with upper supportive menu changes from section to section (not only visial but also by content changing of items, styles and positioning)
http://take.ms/JR7vq
Pages of EMC+ have done by another grid and with absolutely other composition. Generally in the process of transferring in different site sections you can give an expression, that you are on different web sites of the same firm ( partly its true).
Recommendation: relink prototype model of main and all secondary pages in one whole unifying prototype model with all-in-one structure and uniform arrangement of blocks (from page to page blocks dont change their arrangement on the page and always are the same by style).
Styles
Graphical highlighting of active elements conditions doesnt keep. The presence of 3 graphical conditions, that are differ from each other, is necessary for links and other active elements:
For example, text link must be underlined and differ from the text by color in active condition, but when you place the mouse cursor on it, link may become lighter and underlining can be removed.
Many menu items and texts performed as images, which are extremely affects on readability and search visibility of web site.
Fonts and texts
There are 2 main type faces on this web site:
Taking in account huge dimensions of text information, recommended to use font with hair-strokes in case of working with long text for rising of its readability.
For example, in property page «Points of view», on the page «“Production and solutions”»/«Security» head-lines of tabs are different by font sizes in left part of block.
http://take.ms/S8YVb
Images
There are frequently covering images in interfaces, that is positive for perception of it, but covering images misinform users in some cases ( photo of Formula One, girls in cyber glasses and etc.)
All images at the site presented in jpg format. Its necessary to replace all images from “jpg” to “png” format.

Worst indicators of speed and total time were detected at Russian federal districts of Siberian region and Russian Far East and what is more the former Soviet Union Qazaqstan, Kyrgyzstan and etc.
Problematics
Its advisable to combine js-files in one whole file, the same recommended with styles of css- files. We have to combine background images in one whole file and use them with css-sprite.
Cutting of component number on the page will allow to reduce the number of http-requests that are necessary for page displaying. This, in its turn, will increase the speed of download page time.
Geographical location of servers, where different components situated, works on speed of page download. CDN neutralizes geographical factor, because servers of CDN - network are all over the world.
Additionally plug-in gzips is available on the server and it can be used for zipping all text information.
At the moment plug-in dont pack 2 components:
JS-files are necessary to locate at down part of html-marking, because js-files dont allow browser to realize parallel downloads and it means that content after js-file will not download while js-file will not download by itself.
At the moment at top part of html-marking are present 8 js-files, which requires to transfer in down part of body of Web-page:
Its necessary to customize Etag mechanism correctly or it should be completely removed (first is preferable).
Its necessary for exception of cookie from browser requests on static components and for safety wire from rejection in cashing of proxy -servers (Its probably possible in the process of executing of cookie statistics request).
Its necessary to use cookie-free-domain (for example, cfemc.com).

Recommended: to add Web site at Yandex and DMOZ.
References on the main page: 117 of interior (all indexed) / 96 external (all indexed).
Recommended: cut greatly general number of references (to 100), delete all interior references (in case of their principal presence, turn of them from indexation by directive rel=nofollow and tags <noindex>).
Meta tags are widely used, marking of head-lines, emphasis on ability of extra bold.
All images on Web site are allocated with empty attributes alt and title.
Recommended: For the purpose of rising page weight its necessary to point alt and title as key relevant that describes an image.
Conclusion (Summary)
In the whole site content not bad formatted and has good search visibility. Site is available to active promotion.
Relevance of different searching visibility depends on primary semantic base and thats such preliminary information that we havent.
In any case, it obviously needs content revision and development of new semantic base together with technical task of interior optimization and micro formatting.
Review of usability, reasonability, simplicity and convenience of project http://russia.emc.com/.

The example of users way of site view.
http://take.ms/hWzLz
The example of users inner monologue:
«There is no logotype in common place (Top left corner). EMC2 I suppose that its Scientific and Research Company where they do something connected with physics. There is something strange in slaider, what is lower? What “hardware”? “Formula One”….IT safety, cloud technologies. Finally its IT company. What do they offer? To invest? Get a job?»
The strongest element block EMC+. It takes all attention but information unobvious and not clear. Fully incomprehensible covering text and head lines. Strange graphical elements. More than that, its completely at English. It represents needless cut-off, that divides site on 2 parts.
Its apparently for common user, that he is not in his plate here, and this block is for audience with the specific knowledge. The user becomes confused, because nowhere can find the explantation of vnx and vdi and etc.
Mixed emotions.
Mark: 4
During the check fond out many unexpected and unpredictable transitions, problems of makeup, and also several places, those are not available for unregistered users.
There are many cross-language transfers from Russian to English pages.
There are different “placeholders” at searching field of the main page («scan of EMC.com») and on secondary pages («scan of the site»).
Depending on nesting, changes width of page header ( at main = 980px/on page” Ways of purchase” = 1000px) and capability of main menu (most main pages contain submenu / its absent on test page) http://russia.emc.com/campaigns/global/backup-assessment/index.htm?activity_id=235025).
Cutted off partly images and elements of css-sprite.
Superfluous number of elements of interior navigation that leads on parallel and exterior projects (At the best case they have the same style, but had done at different prototype model)
Fond out about 700 pages with dead links
Some blocks and references are duplicate and repeat (contacts in social media, EMC+ and etc.)
Sanitation: 0
A huge amount of content is presented on the site. Generally, its text, less often it is covering images.
Recommended: to reduce the huge amount of text, it is absolutely unreadable (web-site conception doesnt mean reading itself, users dont read web-pages, they just look it through, it is necessary to post any users manuals with detailed photos).
There is no motivation for the site sign up, exept the blocked access to content that can be downloaded.
Recommended: to interest the user in registration( to realize additional functions for registrants, bonus promotion codes, access to useful instruments, personal mailout and offers).
A lot of sections, that are on different domains, confuse the users.
Recommended: to post all the site structure on the same domain.
Pop up windows are used on the site very frequently.
Recommended: to use pop-up boxes instead of pop-up windows ( browsers block pop-up windows, also pop-up windows can cause interrupted paths).
Mixed content is post on the site. Main pages are in Russian, minors are in English.
Recommended: to unify content and to bring it to only one language (the language is determined on the basis of targeted audience portrait and projects geotargeting).
Strict requirements for forms validation and a large number of fields.
Recommended: to reduce the burden on the user by reducing the number of fields and the severity of validation requirements (its necessary to reduce the number of fields, to add more simplified elements, to actualize autoselect and autocomplete for all form fields, actualize Autoformat for all fields which are under “email” and “telephone”).
The presence of broken paths (such activities as registration, authorization, sending feedback forms or opening of an image/video cut short the process of transferring in different site sections).
Recommended: to actualize registration/authorization procedure, the process of sending feedback form in pop-up boxes without jumping from the page of procedures initiation (using an ajax mechanism, the described procedures can be implemented without refreshing and redirecting pages).
Lack of functional.
Recommended: to expland functionally useful elements, required for users and the project (for example, extend solution calculator tool, that allows to collect more users information while providing them a useful and relevant information)
Removal of the materials on other languages( on the main page of “community” block in “hot topics” column there are Chinese and other characters).
http://take.ms/RaZMW
Recommended: not to distract the attention of user by totally useless information( it is more likely to post only Russian language content).
Duplication of the array of links is detected on the site. In particular, the box with social media is duplicated on the top and on the bottom of the majority of pages. Informational links EMC+ on the main page is located in main menu, in the centre of web-page body and in the bottom box “ news and events”
Recommended: to avoid the duplication of elements and links.
Texts, complicated by its content and unreadable, which have technical specific.
Recommended: to simplify the information submission by stylistic changing( to less technical and professional), to diversify the texts with presentations, videos, images, diagrams and general typografing of texts ( right symbols, division of text in small paragraph, citation in the form of list, active usage of headlines and sub-headlines and etc).
Hard to get information and small amount of feedback channels.
Recommended: to post telephone number and e-mail in evident place of the site banner. To place the button of feedback channel additional form. To test the service of online- chat to solve the users operational problems.
Complicated navigation. Its difficult to specify the paths of site transferring and to orientate in site structure( there is no indication of ones location, no sites map, no graphical characteristic of current location).
Recommended: to carry out site structuring, to create sites map, relevant to this structure ( with presentation of all the nesting levels up to the last one),l to realize the indication of current location( menu choices are graphically indicated, the text of menu choice is indicated by extended type), to add the additional menu of “bread crumbs” nesting type.
High level of information noise. High quantity of superfluous extra information
Recommended: to reduce pressure on users attention, by force of adaptive inference of smaller quantity on the page, because its concentration dispels in huge number of information blocks. For instance, blocks with hieroglyphs are absolutely irrelevant.
Sameness of content, it must be independent from visit context. For example, wherever the user will come, he will see same blocks and same information.
Recommended: To use adaptive readout based on users information, source of transfer and etc. Such mechanism requests complex approach and developing of certain module with will make only necessary information visible that is useful only for each concrete user.
The presences of pages with big vertical scroll without additional tools of navigation. When the user will situate in the middle of this page, he can be confused because of navigation.
Recommended: Set the page header with main menu and searching field ( “attach” to top border of browser window). It means that in case of vertical scroll, page header permanently will be at the top of the display. For more than a half of the screen vertical scrolling it is necessary to place a scrolling up button( usually “up to top” arrow) in the “footer”.
Lack of interactive elements, rather laconic interface capabilities and significant responsiveness and transparency.
Recommended: not just “rervive” interface with additional functionality, but also unfold processes of staff otherwise.
Examples of recomendations:
To use typical ajax-upload of materials on pages with huge number of content.
All processes that requests standby should be visualized by graphical “loader” and additional download bar (For example, progress).
Large forms with lots of mandatory fields should be visualized graphically. Use smooth swipe system ( similar to mobile applications) and unique graphical accompaniment for the phased mapping issues.
To point interactive assistant on the description(on-line chat with person or automatic module of response for typical questions)
To offer the functional of statistic and reports on products and services pages. Besides to offer related and logically provided additional product and service.
To realize “calculator of decision”, that allows users of the site to make calculations and specifications and send them to distributors of EMC from this document.
