Surveys on Community

Updated 

Surveys are an integral part of obtaining valuable customer feedback and insights, a vital aspect for businesses looking to enhance their products and services. Community product is natively integrated with Surveys feature that allows you to send surveys to users seamlessly and efficiently when they access your online community.

The survey request appears as a non-intrusive pop-up each time a user logs in to your community platform, eliminating the need for redirection to a separate webpage. This ensures a smooth customer experience, making it more likely for users to provide feedback.

Here are some key benefits and use cases of the Survey feature:

1. Higher Response Rates: By presenting surveys immediately upon login, users are more likely to participate, providing you with valuable insights and a larger response pool.

2. Improved Customer Satisfaction: Collecting feedback and acting on it demonstrates your commitment to continuously enhancing the user experience, resulting in increased customer satisfaction and loyalty.

3. Product Development: Gather crucial feedback on new features, products, or services, allowing you to prioritize future improvements based on your user base's preferences and opinions.

4. Metrics Tracking: Easily track metrics like Net Promoter Score (NPS) and Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) through periodic surveying, enabling you to monitor the impact of changes and improvements to your product or service.

5. Showcase Transparency: Encourage open communication within your community by collecting feedback and implementing changes based on user suggestions. This helps build trust with your clients and an environment in which members feel valued.

By incorporating regular surveys into your community outreach, you create an environment of continuous improvement and an open dialogue with your user base.

Note

You can also send the Survey popup to unauthenticated users (who have not signed up on Community) depending on the following criteria:

  • Time Period that the users have spent on the community. For example, you can send a Survey popup after the user has spent 2 minutes on the community.

  • Any Sort of Activity that they have performed on the community. For example, after hitting the Like button on any post.

You can further get a condition added to show the survey popup only after a defined time period to the users who have already filled out the survey once. For example, if a user has filled the survey today then you can configure to not show the Survey popup for the next 10 days.

For unauthenticated users, you can add additional fields in the survey form to capture from them, for example, the Email Id. So, if a user is not logged into the community then the survey form with the Email Id field will be sent to them in order to track the anonymous users.

To get the above capabilities enabled, reach out to support at tickets@sprinklr.com.
