Customer satisfaction (CSAT)

Customer satisfaction (CSAT) is a commonly used KPI that organizations use to measure customer experience and satisfaction with their product or service. This is done by asking customers to give a score based on their satisfaction with a specific point of contact, or "touchpoint," such as a purchase, an interaction with customer service, or the use of a product.

What is customer satisfaction in market research?

CSAT is an essential part of market research for monitoring customer satisfaction and gaining insight into the overall customer experience. It helps organizations understand what works well and where improvements are needed within the various points of contact with the customer.

By regularly measuring CSAT, organizations can identify trends and make targeted adjustments to specific aspects of their business operations in order to optimize the overall customer experience.

Customer satisfaction in practice

The CSAT is requested within a satisfaction survey in the form of quantitative research, usually in the form of questionnaires. Specific contact moments in the buyer journey are assessed on a 5-point scale.

By conducting periodic CSAT surveys, organizations gain comparative insight into the performance of different departments. This enables them to make more targeted internal adjustments for each contact moment, thereby improving the overall customer experience.
