    CSAT (Customer Satisfaction Score)

    A metric that measures how satisfied customers are with a product, service, or support interaction.

    What is CSAT?

    CSAT (Customer Satisfaction Score) is a key customer experience metric that measures satisfaction with a specific interaction, product, or service. It's typically measured through post-interaction surveys.

    How CSAT is Calculated

    CSAT = (Number of satisfied responses / Total responses) × 100
    Customers rate their experience on a scale (usually 1-5), and ratings of 4-5 are considered "satisfied."
