CES (customer effort) survey template

Find out how hard your customer has to work.

Start from a validated CES template, with the scaled effort question ready to use.

Free to start · No credit card

CES starts from a straightforward premise: a customer who has to work hard to solve a problem leaves. They will not necessarily complain — they simply stop buying. The CES question (how much effort did you have to put in?) captures that better than "were you satisfied?" because it rates the process, not the emotion. It works best right after the contact, while the effort is still fresh.
