As part of a Customer Relationship Management (CRM or Social CRM) program, Medallia’s cloud-based Customer Experience (CX) software platform captures voice of the customer feedback across Web, social, mobile, and contact center channels, analyzes it in real-time, and delivers action workflows to executive, central and front-line teams for customer satisfaction, customer loyalty, Net Promoter scores and overall business performance.[1]
Capabilities
Medallia offers a platform for survey, social, text, written and online feedback.[2] The software analyzes feedback from Facebook, Twitter, and other major review sites (e.g., TripAdvisor) alongside solicited feedback data from surveys and contact centers.
In addition to social media feedback and analysis, as well as mobile feedback and engagement,[3] capabilities of the Medallia product include survey creation and management, text analytics and dashboarding, and direct goals and action management.
History
Medallia was founded in 2001. The founders were consulting to executives of Fortune 500 companies[4] when they saw a direct relationship between customer loyalty and companies’ commercial success, which formed their inspiration for Medallia.[5]
