To get a clear view of your entire customer experience and discover what your customers really think of your business, reporting is the key.
The Feefo reporting suite contains a range of tools to help you get the most out of your reviews. By using our reports, you can find out more about your business-whether you want to identify your best performing branches, which products or services need improvement, how your customer service measures up, or spot seasonal trends in your customer feedback. Everything you need to start uncovering all this data is in the ‘Reports’ tab of the Hub.
Before we get started…
There are a few things that are worth taking note of before you start looking at your reports.
Sales tags
To make the most of the reporting suite, assign sales and product tags to your data. If you have tags assigned, you can be a lot more specific when it comes to reporting.
Suppose you have several stores across the country and want to report on one particular location, or you need to see how individual products are performing– tagging your data can make this possible.
You can also tag sales to differentiate between new and returning customers, so you can gain insights from all points of the customer journey. To find out more about tagging your data, read our customer support article on sales tags.
Global filters
At the top of the Hub, you’ll see a green button labelled ‘Global Filters’. This is where you select which account you want to report on.
Filtering by date
At the top right of the Hub, you’ll see a tab showing two calendar dates. Before running any of your reports, select which time frame you’d like to show data for by clicking on this tab and choosing the dates on the calendar. You can do this manually, or you can choose an option such as ‘last 7 days’ or ‘last 12months’.
Actions
Clicking on the ‘Actions’ menu on any of the reports allows you to:
Email your report. You can send it to anyone, even if they don’t have a Feefo login schedule a report. You can request to send a report to whoever you like, whenever you’d like them to receive it -Saves as a CSV
The Dashboard
For a general overview of how your feedback is looking, go to the ‘Dashboard’ tab.
From here, you’ll get an ‘at a glance’ view of your feedback, such as the progress of your sales uploads, your response rate, how many reviews you need to reply to, and your average rating. To take a more in-depth look into these numbers and investigate any red flags, click on the ‘Reports’ tab.
Your essential reports
The reports that will be the most useful to you depend on your business and what insights you need. The reports we mention here are essential for most businesses and will give you a good overview of your customer feedback at a top level.
Feedback breakdown
This report offers a simple breakdown of your feedback, including your current rating, total number of reviews, and how many reviews have 1,2, 3, 4 or 5 star ratings. You’ll also be able to see how many reviews are waiting for a response from you. Switch your view between product and service reviews by selecting either option on the ‘Feedback type’ option at the top of the page.
The Feedback Breakdown table displays your data according to which tags you have set up, showing how many reviews you are receiving, and the average rating for each category. For example, you could choose to look at a particular product category, sales person or store location.
Response performance
Here you can keep track of your feedback requests and your response rates. This report shows how many feedback requests are being sent, how much feedback you’re receiving, and your response rate as a percentage.
Select either ‘Email’ or ‘SMS’ from the ‘Channel’ drop down menu at the top of the page if you send your feedback requests by text message as well as email.
By selecting ‘Feedback Type’, you can choose to view either product or service reviews to keep an eye on your response rates for each.
If you need to improve your response rate, this report is where you can identify exactly which points in the journey need fine tuning.
You can get all this information at a glance by looking at the ‘Email traffic’ graph at the bottom of the page.

This report allows you to download any data you want from your feedback so you can create your own custom reports displaying the exact information that you need. This is also useful for when you need to take your data offline. Select which data you want to include from the drop-down selector on the top right of the report.
There are so many ways to use this feature. For example, you could pull all five-star reviews on a particular product to use in your marketing, or find contact details for all customers who left a one-star review for your Customer Service team.
With the ability to download all your data, you can populate it into software such as Tableau and Power BI to create more visual and interactive reports.
