NPS (Net Promoter Score)

NPS in Zoho Desk measures customer loyalty by tracking recommendation likelihood, complementing CSAT's per-interaction satisfaction data.

NPS (Net Promoter Score) in Zoho Desk is a loyalty metric gathered via a survey that asks customers how likely they are to recommend your company on a 0-to-10 scale. Responses classify customers as Promoters (9-10), Passives (7-8), or Detractors (0-6).

How NPS Differs from CSAT

CSAT measures satisfaction with a specific support interaction. NPS measures overall relationship loyalty. A customer might be satisfied with a single ticket resolution (high CSAT) but still not likely to recommend the company due to other experiences (low NPS).

Using NPS in Zoho Desk

Zoho Desk can send NPS surveys at scheduled intervals or after specific ticket milestones. NPS data is tracked in reports alongside ticket history, helping support managers understand whether their service quality contributes to or detracts from customer loyalty.

Acting on NPS Responses

Detractors who submit low NPS scores can trigger a workflow in Zoho Desk to notify an account manager or create a follow-up ticket. This proactive response to unhappy customers gives teams a chance to address concerns before the customer churns.

Example: A subscription software company sends NPS surveys quarterly. A score of 42 in Q1 drops to 28 in Q2. Correlating with Zoho Desk data, they find ticket volume increased 30% after a product update, suggesting service strain contributed to the loyalty drop.
