Tips for running CSAT surveys

1

Send CSAT surveys within minutes of an interaction - response rates drop sharply after 24 hours.

2

Keep it to 1–3 questions for transactional feedback.

3

Use the same scale consistently (1–5 or 1–10) so results are comparable over time.

4

Segment CSAT by support agent, product area, or user cohort to identify problem areas.

5

CSAT measures a specific moment; combine with NPS to get both transactional and relational views.

Frequently asked questions

What is a CSAT question?

A CSAT (Customer Satisfaction Score) question asks users to rate their satisfaction with a specific interaction - typically on a 1–5 or 1–10 scale. It is transactional, measuring a single moment rather than overall loyalty.

What is a good CSAT score?

CSAT is usually expressed as a percentage of satisfied responses (those rating 4 or 5 on a 1–5 scale). Above 80% is considered good; above 90% is excellent for most SaaS products.

What is the difference between CSAT and NPS?

CSAT measures satisfaction with a specific interaction (transactional). NPS measures overall loyalty and likelihood to recommend (relational). Both are useful - use CSAT for events, NPS for ongoing relationship health.

When should I send a CSAT survey?

Send CSAT surveys immediately after a specific event: support ticket closed, onboarding completed, demo delivered, or feature released. Delay of more than a few hours significantly reduces accuracy.
