Simple, user-friendly performance monitor.

The Performance Monitor makes keeping up with and understanding customer feedback simple.

The dashboard is the main landing page of the Performance Monitor, and it features several points of information to enable managers to see how their area is performing at a glance. Higher-level managers can access a corporate version of the dashboard to compare performance at various levels of the organization with the corporate average, drilling down to individual reporting unit if desired.

While the dashboard provides an instant review of the most important metrics in the customer experience improvement process, a more thorough analysis can be obtained by diving deeper into the Performance Monitor.

An overall satisfaction ranking that compares current satisfaction to the previous year, as well as trends from quarter to quarter

A rolling three-month average provides insight into recent positive or negative trends in customer loyalty and Advocacy (NAR®)

Satisfaction scores for individual locations, makes it easy to identify high and low performing teams

The Performance Monitor provides access to current and historical data, delivering daily scores to the desktops of front-line managers and all authorized management personnel. It is a robust tool with components for action planning, problem resolution tracking, advocacy charting and multiple options for analysis and report downloads.

Action Alerts

When customers share a negative experience, it’s important to know and react quickly. Our Action Alerts notify front-line managers immediately allowing you to address problems in a timely manner.

Magical Moments

The opposite of Action Alerts, Magical Moments keep you informed when customers share positive experiences. These help to boost morale, recognize individuals for their contributions, and reinforce training efforts to improve customer satisfaction.

Key Drivers

Key driver analysis helps your team focus service improvement efforts on the attributes most important to your customers’ experiences. Each quarter, we review survey responses to determine how each survey attribute relates to overall satisfaction and present the results in the Performance Monitor.

Action Plans

Measuring customer satisfaction is meaningless without action. Action plans based on individual experiences provide users with clear step-by-step directions for addressing customer issues. You’ll have multiple options for how to execute this, including accessing the Idea Bank™, a best practice sharing module that is built on the knowledge and experience within your organization.

Once key driver goals have been set and actions identified, the Performance Monitor automatically tracks your managers’ progress until they meet or exceed their designated goals.
