Feedback Survey
WhatsApp open rates exceed 90%. For customer segments where it is the primary communication channel, a survey sent there reaches customers faster and at higher response rates than any email campaign. Deploy this automation and surveys fire via WhatsApp at the trigger event, delivered directly into the conversation thread.

Why this automation matters
Channel selection determines response rate as much as question design. A well-crafted survey sent through a channel the customer rarely checks will be outperformed by a simpler survey sent through the channel they open first every morning. For a significant portion of the global customer base, particularly in markets across Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia, WhatsApp is that channel. Deploy FeedbackRobot's WhatsApp survey automation and the survey arrives in the same thread where the customer already communicates with your business. A service appointment completed triggers a 2-question WhatsApp message within minutes. A delivery confirmed triggers a short satisfaction check. A support conversation resolved triggers a follow-up in the same thread that handled the issue. The customer responds in WhatsApp without leaving the app or opening a separate link. For businesses that already use WhatsApp for customer communication, adding a structured feedback step to the existing conversation flow is the lowest-friction feedback mechanism available. Responses are captured, classified, and routed to your team the same way they would be from any other channel. A negative response triggers a follow-up. A positive one triggers a review request. The survey sits within the channel rather than competing with it.

Common questions
Why WhatsApp instead of email or SMS?
In markets where WhatsApp is the primary communication channel, messages are typically opened within 4 minutes, for time-sensitive feedback that gap changes who actually responds.
Does the customer need to leave WhatsApp to respond?
No, the survey arrives and is answered in the same thread the customer already uses to communicate with your business.
Does a negative response get treated differently on WhatsApp?
It routes to your team the same way as any other channel, a negative response triggers a follow-up.
Is this only useful for certain regions?
It's most valuable where WhatsApp dominates mobile communication, particularly across Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia, though it works anywhere your customers already use the app.
