Satisfaction Survey

Customer satisfaction ratings are one of the best ways to determine how well your team is supporting your customers as they're direct feedback from them.

The ticket needs to contain at least one reply from an agent for the CSAT survey to trigger, but it doesn't have to be assigned to anyone - the survey will still trigger.

FAQs

Can Satisfaction Surveys be edited or deleted by an Admin in Gorgias?

Are satisfaction surveys billed?

Since the satisfaction survey is sent to a ticket that was marked as billable, there will be no extra charge for sending the survey itself.

If I accidentally close a ticket, does reopening it before the set time passes prevent the survey from being sent?

What happens to the Satisfaction Survey inside the ticket if we merge it?

If you merge a ticket in which there's a satisfaction survey, the survey will be present in both the ticket and your Statistics. Make sure to select the ticket containing the survey as the final ticket, otherwise, the survey will disappear from both the ticket and Statistics.

Does the data show up in Satisfaction stats if a customer didn't click any stars but just commented?

No - in these cases, we aren't pulling the message the customer left inside the satisfaction survey page. The customer needs to select a rating and then leave a comment.

No, the customer satisfaction survey won't trigger on deleted tickets.

What if I have multiple brands using different Email integrations?

The satisfaction survey is sent using the last message’s email channel (if the ticket channel is Email) or the associated email address for Chat tickets.
