Business Challenge

Before adopting SurveyVista, the institution faced challenges in collecting, integrating, understanding, and acting on student feedback.

Inefficient and Unactionable Data Collection: The previous survey tool lacked robust functionality for data collection and sharing across teams. Feedback was disconnected from student community records, making it difficult for teams to derive meaningful insights. This fragmentation left teams without clear, actionable steps to address student needs or improve experiences.

Lack of Benchmarking: The previous tool did not support benchmarking capabilities, making it difficult to quantify the number of surveys sent, responses collected, or track improvements over time. This hindered their ability to measure and compare performance effectively.

Security Concerns: The previous solution operated outside Salesforce, requiring data transfers that introduced security risks. Safeguarding sensitive student information was paramount, but the non-native system fell short of the institution’s security standards.

Engagement Struggles: Low student response rates to surveys posed a challenge, limiting the ability to gather insights and make well-informed decisions.

The institution recognized the need for an integrated solution to improve their feedback loop and empower students to voice their opinions.

Improved Benchmarking and Insights: SurveyVista’s integration of feedback with student records provided a 360-degree view of student experiences. This unified data enabled advanced benchmarking, allowing teams to track performance over time, identify trends, and compare results across demographics and events. By aligning feedback with broader student data, the institution gained the visibility needed to refine services and uncover areas for growth.

Data-Driven Actions to Enhance Experiences: Armed with comprehensive insights, the institution leveraged SurveyVista’s advanced reporting to make informed, strategic decisions.
