The heated debate about which metric gives the best CX results is ongoing – is it the net promoter score (NPS), is it customer satisfaction (CSAT), or is it customer effort? Let’s settle the score now. The truth is, there’s no sole winner. The analytics metrics measure different things. You need to use more than one to judge your performance. And your performance should be benchmarked too.
You also need one or more tailored metrics, measuring the KPIs that determine your brand’s own victories, not others’ successes. Not only that, it’s essential to explore the wider reasons behind the ratings. Why are customers satisfied – or dissatisfied?
