The latest HubSpot upgrades were designed with your teams and customers in mind.

Custom surveys and feedback tools help you learn what your customers truly think. With a variety of survey types and configurable design, you can tailor each survey to fit your company needs. HubSpot will assist you in selecting the best feedback instrument and distribution strategy to align with your goals, allowing you to improve response rates and establish a data baseline over time. Choose from surveys that measure customer loyalty at every touchpoint with pre-built Net Promoter Score (NPS), Customer Effort Score (CES), and Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) questionnaires.
After you send your unique surveys to customers via web link or email, you can share the results and insights with your team and develop a plan to improve customer retention and satisfaction. HubSpot's built-in data feedback dashboards make it easy to track performance and act on your findings right away. As data pours into the dashboards, it will be sorted, displayed, and analyzed. Compare your customers' satisfaction against industry norms, detect patterns that could improve your customer service approach, and identify points of success and opportunity in your customer journey.
