What is simplicity exactly? To me, simplicity means a demonstration of features, functionalities, processes, governance and design which are really necessary. The post Customer Experience Simplicity in Technology: How Quality & Design Impact the Bottom Line appeared first on Eglobalis.

A bad dream for those crafting online survey questionnaires might go as follows… Panel members take an online survey critiquing a previous online survey in which they participated, and one that you wrote. The results are overwhelmingly negative. The panel members hated the experience and admit they offered slapdash information that, as an effect, will actually hinder your research more than help. .

You’ve read all the classic books on customer service— Delivering Happiness by Tony Hsieh, How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie, and more. But now you don’t need to spend hours reading another book, unless you’d like that. Thanks to the rise of TED talks, there are troves of great videos on YouTube where you can learn tips in just 15 minutes.

I hate to break this news to you, but your customers most often interact with your organization because they have to, not because they want to. And when they do connect with you, it’s part of a larger journey that they’re on to achieve something more important than the interaction with you. That’s why it’s critical for organizations to understand and to design experiences for their customers’ journeys.

Retailers know the clock is ticking–legacy SAP Commerce support ends in 2026. Legacy platforms are becoming a liability burdened by complexity, rigidity, and mounting operational costs. But modernization isn’t just about swapping out systems, it’s about preparing for a future shaped by real-time interactions, AI powered buying assistants, and flexible commerce architecture.

For some companies collecting feedback is easy. Maybe even too easy: I’ve come across a big corporation, which collects feedback, stores it somewhere and does nothing with it. There are no resources to read it through. While server space is cheap, and this might feel like an easy way to make customers believe you listen to them, don’t do like this. You are just wasting your customers’ time and fooling yourself at the same time.

I have said this over the years, and recently, several of my podcast guests have also discussed it: there is an ever-increasing need to think of employees as customers as well, i.e. internal customers. Retention rates in major companies have been dropping for years, for a variety of reasons: more flexible work options, people pursuing their own ventures or teaming with startups, bad management, etc.

Social media has changed the rules of customer service. There was a time when if a customer wanted to complain, they’d have to dial the customer service number and then wait in a queue for 10, 20 or 30 minutes. If they were a bit irritated when they picked up the phone, they were likely to be fuming by the time they got through to an agent. This was partly due to the long wait, but also due to the fact that this set-up led to customers not feeling in control or valued in any way.

Companies are shooting themselves in the foot consistently around their customer experience. Why? And how do we help them to make it better? In the past 18 months, we’ve seen several major customer experience blunders from big brands. There is a pathway to improving customer experience globally, but it’s not necessarily the way we think about it now.

If you haven’t been docked in a space lab for the past 30 years, I’m sure you’ve been asked to complete a customer satisfaction survey, after a recent shopping experience, whether online or offline. In fact, even in space, it’s probably not a stretch to assume that NASA conducted a few with their astronauts to gain feedback on behalf of their product partners.

When you’ve worked in support for a while, especially for the same company, it can feel like Groundhog Day. You feel like you answer the same questions day in and day out. That’s because you probably are! But that doesn’t mean it has to be boring. Practice makes perfect and setting yourself the challenge to improve keeps you interested. There are always things you could be doing better in your conversations.

We examined the connection between customer experience and loyalty by tapping into our survey of 10,000 U.S. consumers to analyze the relationship between Temkin Experience Ratings (TxR) and future purchase intentions. To determine future purchase intentions, we asked consumer how likely they were to purchase more from the company in the future. We calculated the percentage of each company’s customers who selected “6,” or “7” on a scale from “1” (not at

The way we create and deliver customer experiences is constantly evolving in this rapidly changing space. Keeping up with customer experience trends is now an essential part of running a successful business. It’s moving from a “nice to have” to a “must have” department in most organizations. Those with or without customer experience in their titles are considering how their daily work impacts the customer journey.

I want to bring up an interesting example of customer experience innovation that has been discussed (but not directly) in recent weeks. It’s a little bit nuanced, so bear with me. (BTW, the overall idea of “customer experience innovation” is obviously very far-reaching, and numerous books have been written on it. This is just about one aspect.).

For a period in human history, all we had were spoken words. Later we learned to communicate through written symbols and today it seems the most preferred communication medium is words shared through video. Great customer experience brands are not only “visual storytellers” but they are supporting their customers as those brand loyalists visually communicate about their brand journey.

One common dilemma we often hear from researchers is that they are investing a great deal of time, resources, and effort to develop a high quality survey, but their survey response rates are declining, as is their online data quality—leaving them unsatisfied with the outcomes of their research. After all, the research is meaningless if the survey results are inadequate.

Where do you begin when you develop a new product or feature? Product development can seem overwhelming. There are so many moving parts that trying to create something valuable from nothing can seem impossible. And with so many stakeholders to please, whose opinion should you seek? All too often a product development cycle starts with market research, gets approved by the board, developed and sold by a sales team before support is ever involved.
