Tip #36- How to use Survey in Zoho Assist to capture valuable feedback from remote sessions- 'Insider Insights'

The survey feature allows technicians and customers to share their valuable feedback, contributing to the improvement of remote service quality. After the completion of a remote session, technicians and customers are prompted to fill out a survey form, which offers perspectives on the remote assistance experience. These responses can be compiled into survey reports for detailed analysis at a later stage.

Creating a Survey in Zoho Assist

Navigate to Settings > General > Survey.

From there, you can choose the type of survey you want to create—either a Customer Survey or a Technician Survey. 

You can choose from two types of surveys:

  • Customer Survey – displayed to the end user

  • Technician Survey – displayed to the technician after a session 




Here’s how collecting feedback through surveys can make a meaningful impact on your remote support operations:

Technician Survey – Key Benefits  

Encourages frontline feedback: Technicians can share their experience immediately after the session which gives the managers real-world insights from those handling issues first-hand.
Identifies technical challenges: Technician responses often reveal recurring obstacles, patterns and limitations in tools.
Customer-centric strategy refinement: Technician insights can reveal patterns that affect customer satisfaction, enabling teams to adapt and improve support strategies accordingly.
Supports performance evaluation: Feedback collected through surveys provides a consistent metric to assess technician performance, helping guide decisions on recognition, rewards, and development.

Customer Survey – Key Benefits  

Captures the real customer experience: Customers provide insights into how helpful, clear, and timely the support session was.
Reveals service gaps: Negative or neutral feedback can point to specific pain points, whether it’s long wait times, confusing communication, or unresolved issues.
Drives continuous improvement: Analyzing customer feedback helps you identify which support strategies are working and where improvements are needed.
Builds trust and accountability: A consistent feedback loop reinforces transparency and makes customers feel heard.

Start collecting valuable feedback today to improve your remote support experience continuously and deliver better service with every session.
