The technology industry is – without a doubt – fiercely competitive. This is especially true for startups that offer Software as a Service (SaaS) as their survival obligates them to meet demands of constant innovation, adaptability and customer satisfaction. Consequently, these businesses must know how to successfully exploit new opportunities for growth as well as deliver an exceptional customer experience.
As a fellow SaaS company, Mopinion is very familiar with all the ins and outs of making a product successful and maintaining a certain level of innovation, while simultaneously meeting the needs of current and future customers.

Any good digital marketer knows how important customer feedback is for their clients. From understanding customer issues to validating new market strategies, you can gain a wide range of information from the customer feedback you receive on Facebook, Instagram, Yelp and more. Feedback, good or bad, is essential for the growth of your business.
Whenever you search for services online, the first thing you look at is the company’s feedback. For example, when searching for “digital marketing agency Chester”, you will see Social Buzzing in the search engine results. You would then look at the Social Buzzing positive reviews and decide to click on the link. This is how many businesses are chosen by potential customers and why customer feedback, especially in the form of reviews, is important.

User onboarding is the period in which your business is likely to receive the most feedback and support questions from your customers as they want to get started using the product. This makes onboarding an ideal moment to learn from your customers and use those learnings to improve.

When you have a customer service team that answers emails and messages on social media, takes phone calls and places orders, it’s easy to become removed from your customers’ experiences. Without your personal touch in your company's customer service experience, you may be withholding your unique spirit and style from your customer base. It could soon start to take on the values of your employees who were here yesterday but may not be there tomorrow.

If you’re reading this it’s probably safe to say your business has decided to implement an online customer feedback programme. Excellent choice! The next step is to start setting things into motion (in other words, collecting feedback), which can be challenging without the proper guidance. If you already have goals set out for your business, you’re certainly on the right track. Now all you’re going to need is a strategy that encompasses those goals, which – in the case of feedback – can be as simple as using a feedback form template, or at least understanding how a feedback form should be designed…

Technology has produced huge breakthroughs in design. A product can be ideated, prototyped and finalized with little more than a keyboard and code. But the ingenuity of modern design often leads to product teams neglecting the basics.
While the best tech entrepreneurs anticipate trends before they occur and deliver cutting-edge products, it’s impossible to be so prescient without hearing from real users. That’s why, to stay competitive, more and more tech companies are adopting a customer-centric model of design.

There are many customer experience journey maps in the world – beautiful ones, ugly ones, complicated ones, intriguing ones, short ones, long ones and some more impressive ones than others. What does amaze me though is how much focus there still is on processes and procedures and how little focus on emotions, feelings and values (for both internal and external customers). True, if the basics of procedures and processes are in place there might be less frustration for customers, but if this is the only consideration and looked at in isolation, I have a problem with it. Humans are more complex than this – systems are static and can usually be fixed, but add humans into the mix and things gets complicated. Its messy and un-predictive, but herein lies the secret…

For those of you who might be new to this, NPS is a simple one-question survey in which you ask your customer “How likely are you to recommend our product to friends or colleagues?”. Because NPS is a strong indicator of customer satisfaction across support, product, success, and more, it’s meaningful for all departments. Not only does it indicate how loyal your customers are, it also helps you gauge the entire company’s customer centricity.

Customer engagement and customer experience (CX) are too often used as buzzwords without a company making a true effort to shape their strategy and the way they do business around the customer. Moreover, companies feel that simply installing a technology product will be a silver bullet to providing better customer engagement. This shortsightedness creates an unsustainable environment that gives customers the sense of a disjointed company and employees left confused on how they can provide the best experience for their customers.

While the focus is on newcomers entering industries and threatening the viability of traditional players, it is lack of customer centricity that poses the real threat to incumbents as the so-called disruptors are simply using digital technology to build an operation around the consumer. It is a realisation that is forcing larger companies to transform the way they do things, while a bigger picture is slowly emerging.
