What is a customer feedback survey?
A customer feedback survey is a tool for a business to gather opinions from the people that buy from them. The creator of the survey is able to create a customised list of questions to uncover game-changing insights that steer the development of the company. It's commonplace for surveys to feature a range of questions, and for different answer types to be offered. These response types can include:
- Multi-select answers
- Sliding scales
- Reordering of options
- Free-text field for typed replies
A customer feedback survey will often ask the respondent to rate their experience with the business as a whole. This is the core assessment of whether the individual had a positive or negative experience with the company. There is a number of associated scoring systems to measure this response against and whether you choose to use NPS®, CSAT or CES these give you benchmarks to assess your business's progress as you implement new customer satisfaction measures.

Notifications
Customer feedback alerts
You want to know as soon as your business receives new feedback, and we get that. We don't rely on in-app notifications to keep you informed, instead, we send them straight to your inbox.
Our notification emails have been designed to show all the key information you need to decide whether you need to act immediately and put something right or leave your activity until it suits you. We ensure no private information is shared on these notification emails either, which is one less thing for you to worry about.
Survey branching
Customer survey logic
Every question in your surveys can have dependent field logic applied. This means you can set another question to appear based on the response given for any previous question.
We've built this feature as it's important for a business to understand why someone gave the answer they did to help uncover the deeper meaning and rationale. While other surveys stop at the first layer of response Review Tui encourages users to go deeper. These dependent fields enable you, the survey builder, to create intelligent questioning pathways that don't feel long and tedious to the person filling in the survey.
Drive engagements
Get public reviews
Our surveys make it easy for you to request a public online review from people that are already open to giving you feedback.
Simply create a link to any of your third-party review platforms and tell the survey which ones you'd like people to be sent to. You can limit the survey to only show one public review platform at the end or give the user several to choose from, the choice is yours.
Review Tui alpha testers have seen as much as a 60% conversion from Review Tui feedback submissions to online public reviews as a result of using this system.
Simple scoring
5-star reviews
Each survey includes a 5-star rating system at the end so you can get an overall sense of what it's like to buy from your company. This overall rating is simpler than using something like an NPS score and is a system that most customers are familiar with. The 5-star rating system is so popular that no matter whether you're rating your Uber driver or checking out how safe your car is this universally recognised scoring system can be easily understood by all of your customers.

Which tiers include surveys?
All of them! It's pretty tough to gather customer feedback without surveys so these are a standard feature of Review Tui. There may be limits on the number of surveys you can create, based on your tier.
How many responses can we receive?
There's no limit to the number of responses you can receive on Review Tui. We don't believe your business's customer feedback strategy should be throttled by a monthly cap on the feedback you can receive.
