Unlimited on-demand accessibility defect scanning

Accessibility Cloud offers unlimited on-demand scanning on all plans. This means you can scan your entire site any time you want, without limits. This feature is possible because of Accessibility Cloud’s hyper-scalable technical infrastructure.

Our public scanners provide unparalleled scanning and monitoring performance, and we deploy new scanners constantly to keep the scanning and monitoring performance high.

With Accessibility Cloud, you can expect to scan between 2,000 to 10,000 pages per hour, on average.

Please note that the performance of scanning and monitoring is directly correlated to how fast we can communicate with your web server.

User flow testing

Membership, search, payment, shopping, booking, contact and every other type of user flow. What is common in all of them is that they require user interaction.

Accessibility Cloud can mimic user interactions to test user flows against accessibility defects that surface only after user interactions.

Visit your site, record your user flows, and let Accessibility Cloud uncover accessibility problems which surface only after user interactions as well.

The following screenshot depicts a specific brand and model of smartphone being searched for on a marketplace by mimicking user interactions for opening menus, clicking filters, typing values to search fields and selecting options from select boxes to find accessibility errors on pages’ static states and after user each interaction.

Scan pages and documents behind logins

Accessibility Cloud scans pages behind logins by allowing the definition of granular scan parameters.

Powerful exclusion capabilities

You can exclude content, pages, URLs, specific HTML selectors or all iframe tags across your site.

Multiple compliance targets

You can choose multiple compliance targets for each site. You can also control the conformance level between AA and AAA and choose to include accessibility errors that don’t cause violations.

Currently supported: EN 301 549, WCAG, BITV, RGAA, Section 508 and ADA.

Multiple accessibility defect scanning engines

You can choose an engine that works for your purpose. You can test your sites with multiple engines, including the same one as your country’s monitoring agency to have meaningful comparisons.

Currently supported: axe-core and QualWeb

Accessibility monitoring

Accessibility Cloud monitors your websites periodically with parameters of your choosing, including query strings, advanced inclusion and exclusions rules which support regex, alternative resolutions, headers, cookies, and more. Accessibility Cloud performs hundreds of tests for your content (web pages & documents) to find non-compliance issues.

Big data and power of cloud computing

Accessibility Cloud scales very easily based on your organisation’s growing needs. You can have many websites or many variations of the same website for different needs, such as different viewports, partial scans of different sections of your website, different subdomains, different domains etc.

With its flexibility, Accessibility Cloud supports the way you want to work with your website’s accessibility. It does not force you have a single domain with all your pages together, like many other services who are creating a problem, not a solution.
