摘要

Objective: The primary objective of this paper is to identify the main factors which have an impact on the users' attitude towards the functionalities representing the perceived ease of use and to those representing the perceived usefulness. Another objective is to examine whether there occurred a shift towards the perceived usefulness of users' behavior over a period of time. To support these objectives, two different cases are examined the case in which users are simultaneously offered basic and updated functionalities, and the one in which users are offered a completely new set of features. The results of this study are expected to exert a significant impact on a further development of new software components, as well as the updates of the existing ones.
