NPS is a simple and powerful way to measure customer happiness; one question that can help businesses better understand how to increase customer loyalty. Wootric's approach, however, is to ensure that companies don't stop at the score. Until Wootric, there hasn't been a simple, automatic way to align everyone in the company around this most important customer experience metric.

Companies all over the world are using Wootric to win customers for life. The in-application approach replaces the cumbersome manual process of sending out email surveys and compiling feedback that is often out of date by the time it's shared within a company.
