Feedback tools are one of the easiest ways to collect and organize customer feedback. Previously, we discussed what feedback widgets are; now, let’s go over why you need them and our top ten favourites.
As a quick recap, widgets are bits of software embedded into your site that help you connect to your users and collect info from them. This information can give you important insights into what your customers want, what problems or issues they’re experiencing, and what to prioritize next on your product journey.
Feedback widgets also have several benefits. For one, they act as an easy, low-effort way for you to collect more feedback for your customer support and development teams that will help you further your product and improve it for your next release. If you make it difficult for your users to leave feedback, you won’t get the responses you want; but feedback widgets take care of this by making giving feedback simple and accessible.
Likewise, feedback widgets make it easy to organize and prioritize your support workflow. Urgent queries can be dealt with and followed up on more quickly, and you can bundle similar feedback together to help you see the bigger picture.
Finally, having a feedback widget on your site is an easy way to show your user base that you care about their opinions and to help them feel involved in your product journey. This can help them become more loyal customers and in turn, help you retain your audience.
Now that we’ve gone over the benefits of feedback widgets, let’s round up our top ten feedback widget tools and talk about how they can help you get the most out of your customer feedback.
