If you have Smiley Digital or Smiley Touch in use, you can allow people to leave you open feedback as a part of their response.  This can be very helpful to discover the reasons behind high or low satisfaction.

The default question for the open feedback field is "Would you like to add anything?", but you change it to your own question. You can also have a different question after positive and negative feedback. 

You can see the open feedback you have received in the Open feedback widget, as an attachement to email reports, or by exporting the feedback as Excel

Open feedback is by default visible to all Analytics users, but you can limit the visibility so that only selected users can access it. When feedback visibility is limited, the user cannot see the Open Feedback widgets in Analytics, and it will also be excluded from email reports and exports. To learn more, read Edit a user's role and access.

💡 TIP: If you're worried that people might leave sensitive or personal information in the open feedback field, you can show privacy notice when collecting open feedback. If you do want people to leave their contact details, we recommend doing it by using the contact info screen.
