Brands still aren't hearing the voice of the customer

Despite measuring satisfaction, they're still rather deaf

The research found that despite brands analysing the growing number of interactions they have with their customers, they struggle to get real value from them. For example, 83% analyse email conversations, and 75% study customer reviews and comments, yet only 12% and 11% respectively see this currently providing actionable customer intelligence.

Existing VoC systems are unable to measure factors that directly impact loyalty, revenue, and churn or to share insight across the business. 62% of survey respondents wanted to identify pain points through VoC programmes, while over half were looking to measure emotions. The same number (53%) needed to be able to identify detractors and explain why they acted as they did in order to protect revenues and minimise churn.

Customer insight data is still stored in silos - while 79% shared information with marketing, 82% with customer service, 74% with sales and 71% with operations, just 38% shared with e-commerce and 21% with teams running physical shops.

"Brands know that to truly engage with their customers and build long-term relationships they need to understand their wants and needs, and be able to use this insight to drive an improved customer experience," said Olivier Njamfa, CEO and Co-Founder, Eptica. "However, our research shows that they are being held back by existing systems and approaches - they are struggling with a partial picture that they find difficult to turn into actionable insights that can transform their business."

To meet this growing need for next generation VoC systems, Eptica created 'vecko', an AI-powered solution that enables brands to access customer intelligence, continuously improve CX and generate immediate ROI. The system promises real-time, actionable insights, automatically analysing customer conversations across every digital channel (including email, social media, chat and speech-to-text) as well as indirect feedback (such as mentions on Twitter and Facebook) and survey feedback.

"Current metrics and systems provide a rough guide to what customers are saying, but don't give insight into why they are behaving in particular ways or deliver a true, real-time picture of their emotions," added Taoufik Massoussi, Product Manager and Head of AI, Eptica.
