Usability Evaluation on the Indonesian Medicinal Plant Database Portal Using the System Usability Scale (SUS) Method

Abstract

Previous research discussed valuable recommendations for the development of an Indonesian medicinal plant database portal. However, previous research has not discussed usability evaluation on the Indonesian medicinal plant database portal. One usability evaluation technique that is quite popular is the system usability scale (SUS). This study aims to analyze the portal database of medicinal plants using the usability scale (SUS) system to find out the next portal improvement. The SUS method allows researchers to collect data from users through surveys and calculate usability scores, providing recommendations for improving the design and functionality of web-based systems. From the experimental results in the form of calculation results using SUS measurement, it is known that the implementation of the medicinal plant database portal received an assessment of 72.14. This value if interpreted using the measurement level of the final value of SUS can be said that the implementation of the medicinal plant database portal can be accepted (acceptable) with a good category (good).
