Overview

 

Manage Surveys for your customers; Surveys are connected with the ticket types only, they can be created and sent to your customers to obtain basic or detailed feedback on their 'customer experience'. Sending surveys to your end users allows you to evaluate and improve your performance.

 

Surveys require the use of various functionality for it to work as a process; the following features must be configured: -


  • The Process Permissions 'Send Survey' and 'Complete Survey' must be ticked in the relevant Ticket area
  • Use Custom fields (Questions) / forms (Surveys) to create the survey
  • Themes can be created or CSS and appearance can be configured in the Self Service Portal
  • Email templates can be created for outgoing surveys with a link to the survey
  • Use Business rules to send surveys
  • The survey answers can only be accessed through reports

Please note: there is a separate article that describes how links to survey responses can be included as buttons in the email template: Quick Link Survey (you will need to log into the Vivantio Support Portal to access this article)
