Customer Experience Awards
The SoftwareReviews Customer Experience Awards evaluate and rank products based on emotional response ratings from IT and business professionals. Our scoring methodology aggregates these ratings across 26 dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
Customer Experience Awards are proudly founded in 100% user review data and are free of traditional “magical” components such as market presence and analyst opinion, which are opaque in nature and may be influenced by vendor pressure, financial or otherwise.

See how each vendor stacks up across each of the 26 emotional response areas, and how they compare against each other. Our Customer Experience Report covers all aspects of the vendor-client relationship.

Measuring Customer Experience
Customer Experience Award rankings are scored using our “Net Emotional Footprint" index, which tracks responses across 26 emotional response areas that span 5 categories: Purchasing, Service Experience, Product Impact, Vendor Strategy, and Conflict Resolution. The following calculation is done across this index:
% of Positive Reviews - % of Negative Reviews
For clarity, the total percentage of positive, neutral, and negative ratings is shown for each vendor as well.
