Digital Analytics Association Selects iPerceptions for 'Voice of Customer' Analytics

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - Apr 23, 2012) - DAA NY Symposium -- iPerceptions Inc., a leading provider of online Voice of Customer (VoC) analytics based on real visitor feedback, today announced that the Digital Analytics Association (DAA), formerly known as the Web Analytics Association (WAA), has chosen iPerceptions' webValidator Continuous Listening solution to address its VoC needs for the www.digitalanalyticsassociation.org site.

The DAA will use visitor feedback gathered by iPerceptions' webValidator Continuous Listening solution to learn more about the needs and expectations of visitors to its website. iPerceptions' webValidator will also enable the DAA to identify and prioritize opportunities to improve their site in ways that better serve current and prospective members as well as web analysts and marketers. The DAA also plans to integrate webValidator data with Google Analytics data to understand the combination of a) what visitors did on the website and b) their perception of the experience.

"Direct feedback is a critical element of any customer analytics program," said Mike Levin, Executive Director of the Digital Analytics Association. "We are excited to be working with iPerceptions and using their 'active invitation' and random sampling approach to gather website visitor data, which produces balanced feedback that we can trust as an accurate representation of all our visitors."

Unlike user feedback buttons that are embedded on web pages, iPerceptions' continuous listening methodology uses: a) active feedback invitations b) randomly delivered on arrival and c) branded by the organization to ensure a representative sample of all website visitors. Research shows that active solicitations yield significantly higher response rates and generate data that is significantly more balanced in terms of positive and negative feedback.

"Preliminary analysis of iPerceptions' webValidator data has already revealed that digital analytics beginners and non-members are under-served by our website," added Levin. "We are incorporating these findings into a site redesign project that is currently underway."
