Customer Effort Score

CES — understand where customers struggle the most.

The less effort, the more loyalty. CES is a metric that reveals bottlenecks in support, checkout, and onboarding. WiseData NPS is a 100% NPS platform: you measure the experience of these moments with Transactional NPS (0–10), not a separate effort scale.

Loyal customers aren't only the happiest — they're the ones who had the least effort.

Reducing effort has a big impact on retention. CES is the metric that captures this idea. In WiseData NPS, you track these friction points by listening to customers with NPS surveys after each interaction.

CES (Customer Effort Score) FAQ

What's the difference between CES and CSAT?

CSAT measures satisfaction (did they like it?). CES measures effort (was it easy?). Both are methodologies distinct from NPS, which measures loyalty and advocacy on the 0–10 scale.

Does WiseData NPS have a CES survey with a 1–7 scale?

No. Every WiseData NPS survey uses the 0–10 NPS scale. To measure the experience at friction points (support, checkout, onboarding), use Transactional NPS right after the interaction.

How is CES traditionally calculated?

In the CES methodology, the customer rates from 1 to 7 (very difficult to very easy) and the score is the average of all responses. That scale is not used by WiseData NPS, which works exclusively with NPS (0–10).
