For marketers and founders from data-driven brands, asking the right questions and collecting data at the right time is paramount for full-funnel optimisation. 

Recently I’ve been testing and engaging some of the tools I talk about (and breakdown) in this guide with some of the eCommerce clients I’m working with, and I have been really impressed by what these apps can do for data collection. 

The benefits and ROI you see as an investment in paying for these apps are totally worth it, in my opinion, to help with data storytelling internally in the business, as well as how to improve earlier stages of the funnel with TOF/MOF marketing campaigns.

So, you’re interested in learning more about what these post-purchase survey and analytics platforms can do, but what should you look out for?

I’ve done some of the research for you, but it’s important to your own investigation, which makes sense for your brand. Here are the key factors/questions I recommend looking out for when exploring:

  • What does the UI/UX look like when the survey questions are prompted at checkout?
  • Is the integration seamless with your eCommerce CMS? (really easy for those on Shopify)
  • Plus, are there other integrations to feed data into, whether for ad channel optimisation or data recording in other tools?
  • What attribution and analytics features are available, and how detailed do the breakdowns go?
  • Is segmentation available to prompt questions based on previous purchases and event behaviours with the store?

Needless to say, there may be other factors/questions you might ask yourself that make sense for your brand, but hopefully, these serve as a good guide to consider.
