Customer retention survey FAQ

Common questions about timing, question selection, response rates, and how to use retention survey data to reduce churn.

Before you can act on retention data

Know which segments to watch with a customer segmentation survey

Retention data is only useful when you know which customers you are measuring. A customer segmentation survey maps your base by role, company size, use case, and buying behavior - so your health scores and churn signals have meaningful cohorts to compare against, not just an overall average.

Run segmentation once to establish your customer groups, then layer retention surveys on top to see which segments are healthy, at-risk, or critical.
