Qualtrics: Increase your Survey Response Rate by Bringing it Into Your App

Last updated:

Overview

As a product manager, customer success manager, or any individual working to engage with your customers more, a survey to understand customer sentiment is a great tool.  However, surveys sent by email can often be missed by your customers because inboxes get very crowded.  Now, Pendo and Qualtrics give you the power to bring surveys right where your customers live, in your app. Data shows it’s possible to get higher response rates when customers are in the moment.  For example, after using Pendo to measure the launch of a new feature, you can now target a Qualtrics survey right in your app to the segment of customers who use the new feature, deepening qualitative and sentiment information.
