Copy them, or deploy them in SpaceForms. **The state of customer feedback, 2026:** ACSI Q1 2026 national CSAT sits at 76.7 — flat from 2025. Refiner's 2026 in-app benchmark shows 27.5% average survey response rates (36.1% for mobile in-app). Gartner CEB research shows 94% of customers reporting low effort would repurchase vs only 4% of high-effort customers — meaning the questions you ask determine what you can fix. ## What makes a good customer feedback question The best customer feedback questions are short, specific, and tied to a single observable behaviour or outcome. "How satisfied were you with checkout?" is good. "How would you rate your overall experience with our brand including product, support, and shipping?" is bad — it's compound, vague, and unactionable. Stick to one concept per question, use a consistent scale, and always pair quantitative items with one open-ended "why" follow-up. The library below is organised into seven categories covering the full customer journey. Mix and match 5-15 questions for a relationship survey, or pick 1-3 for a transactional micro-survey. Refiner's 2026 data confirms: completion stays above 60% with 1-3 questions and collapses past 10. Less is almost always more. ## How to use this library - **Pick 1-3 questions for a transactional survey** (post-purchase, post-support). - **Pick 5-10 for a relationship survey** (quarterly NPS, annual CX program). - **Always include one open-ended "why"** after your headline metric. - **Standardise scales** — pick CSAT (1-5), NPS (0-10), or CES (1-7) and stick with it. - **Pilot with 10 customers** before launching to catch leading wording. ## 1\. Satisfaction (CSAT — Q1-12) CSAT is the broadest customer metric and the easiest to benchmark — ACSI publishes industry averages quarterly. The headline question is universal; the rest probe specific touchpoints. See our [CSAT calculator](/tools/csat-calculator) for scoring. - 1\. How satisfied were you with your overall experience? (1-5) - 2\. How satisfied are you with the product? (1-5) - 3\. How satisfied are you with the value you received? (1-5) - 4\. How does our product compare to your expectations? (Far below / Below / Met / Exceeded / Far exceeded) - 5\. How satisfied were you with the speed of service? (1-5) - 6\. How satisfied were you with the quality of communication? (1-5) - 7\. How satisfied are you with the level of personalisation? (1-5) - 8\. How satisfied are you with our product compared to alternatives you've tried? (1-5) - 9\. Overall, how would you rate your experience today? (1-5) - 10\. What is the primary reason for your satisfaction score? (Open-ended) - 11\. Compared to 6 months ago, your satisfaction with us has: (Decreased / Stayed the same / Increased) - 12\. What is the ONE thing we could do to make you more satisfied? (Open-ended) ## 2\. Ease (CES — Q13-22) Customer Effort Score (CES) measures how easy an interaction was — Gartner's data shows this is the strongest single predictor of repurchase. The CEB-validated wording is the 7-point agree/disagree statement. See [CES vs CSAT](/articles/ces-vs-csat). - 13\. \[Company\] made it easy for me to handle my issue. (Strongly Disagree 1 → Strongly Agree 7) - 14\. How much effort did you personally have to put forth to resolve your issue? (1-7) - 15\. The checkout process was easy. - 16\. Finding the information I needed on your website was easy. - 17\. Setting up my account was easy. - 18\. Getting in touch with support was easy. - 19\. Returning a product was easy. (If applicable) - 20\. Cancelling or modifying my order was easy. (If applicable) - 21\. What was the most difficult part of your experience? (Open-ended) - 22\. What is one step we could remove to make this easier? (Open-ended) ## 3\. Recommendation (NPS — Q23-32) Net Promoter Score is the gold-standard relationship metric. One question + one follow-up = full NPS. See our [NPS calculator](/tools/nps-calculator) and [2026 industry benchmarks](/reports/nps-benchmark-by-industry-2026). - 23\. On a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend us to a friend or colleague? - 24\. What is the primary reason for your score? (Open-ended) - 25\. What would it take to make you a 10? (Open-ended — Detractors/Passives only) - 26\. Who specifically would you recommend us to? (Open-ended — Promoters only) - 27\. How likely are you to recommend our product specifically? (0-10) - 28\. How likely are you to recommend our customer support specifically? (0-10) - 29\. Have you already recommended us to someone? (Yes / No) - 30\. If you did NOT recommend us, what stopped you? (Open-ended) - 31\. How does your likelihood to recommend us compare to 6 months ago? (Lower / Same / Higher) - 32\. Would you recommend a specific feature? Which one? (Open-ended) ## 4\. Product Quality (Q33-44) Product-quality questions get specific about features, reliability, performance and fit. Use these in a post-onboarding or quarterly product survey, not a transactional one. - 33\. How well does our product solve the problem you bought it for? - 34\. How reliable is our product? - 35\. How easy is our product to use? - 36\. How well-designed do you find our product? - 37\. How does our product compare to alternatives you've used? - 38\. Which feature do you use most? (Open-ended) - 39\. Which feature do you wish we had? (Open-ended) - 40\. Which feature do you NEVER use? (Open-ended) - 41\. How would you describe our product to a friend? (Open-ended) - 42\. If we removed \[feature X\], would you still use the product? (Yes / No / Depends) - 43\. How likely are you to continue using our product in 12 months? (0-10) - 44\. What's the most disappointing thing about our product? (Open-ended) ## 5\. Support Experience (Q45-55) Support-specific feedback should fire immediately after a ticket closes — response rates drop 40% after 24 hours. Combine CSAT (outcome) with CES (effort) for the full picture. - 45\. How satisfied were you with your support experience? (1-5) - 46\. The support agent made it easy to resolve my issue. (1-7) - 47\. The support agent was knowledgeable. - 48\. The support agent was friendly. - 49\. The support agent listened to me. - 50\. My issue was fully resolved. - 51\. How long did it take to get a response? (Acceptable / Too long / Much too long) - 52\. Would you contact this support team again? - 53\. Was there anything the agent could have done better? (Open-ended) - 54\. Did you have to repeat yourself or be transferred? (Yes / No) - 55\. On a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend our support specifically? ## 6\. Pricing Perception (Q56-65) Pricing questions are notoriously hard — direct "is this fair?" questions get social-desirability bias. The Van Westendorp Price Sensitivity Meter (Q60-63) is the validated alternative. - 56\. How would you rate the value for money you received? (1-5) - 57\. Compared to alternatives, our pricing is: (Much worse / Worse / Same / Better / Much better) - 58\. The pricing is transparent and easy to understand. - 59\. I would recommend our pricing model to a friend. - 60\. At what price would you consider this product so expensive you would not consider buying it? (Open-ended) - 61\. At what price would you consider this product so cheap that you would feel the quality couldn't be very good? (Open-ended) - 62\. At what price would you consider this product starting to get expensive, but still worth it? (Open-ended) - 63\. At what price would you consider this product to be a bargain? (Open-ended) - 64\. How would you react to a 10% price increase? (Cancel / Reduce usage / No change) - 65\. What would justify a higher price for our product? (Open-ended) ## 7\. Open-ended Discovery (Q66-80+) Open-ended questions are where the real insight lives. Limit to 2-4 per survey and put them at the end. Use AI text analysis (built into SpaceForms) to theme responses at scale. - 66\. What is the ONE thing we should improve first? - 67\. What is the best thing about our product? - 68\. What is the worst thing about our product? - 69\. What were you trying to accomplish when you bought our product? - 70\. What almost stopped you from buying? - 71\. What other products did you consider? - 72\. Why did you choose us over the alternative? - 73\. If our product disappeared tomorrow, what would you use instead? - 74\. Describe our product in three words. - 75\. What's the first thing you tell a friend about us? - 76\. If you could change one thing about us, what would it be? - 77\. What's a problem you have that our product doesn't yet solve? - 78\. Have you noticed any bugs or issues in the past 30 days? - 79\. Anything else you'd like us to know? - 80\. Can we follow up with you about your feedback? (Yes / No + optional email) ## Recommended scales - **5-point CSAT**: best for transactional satisfaction. Score as top-2-box percentage. - **7-point CES**: best for post-support effort. CEB-validated wording. - **0-10 NPS**: best for quarterly relationship surveys. Score = %Promoters - %Detractors. - **Binary**: best for fast micro-surveys ("Did we solve your issue? Y/N"). Pair with open-ended why. - **Ranking**: useful for feature prioritisation but slows completion — limit to one ranking item per survey. ## Use these questions in SpaceForms Deploy any of these customer feedback questions in SpaceForms in under a minute.

Past 10 questions, response rates collapse. ### Should I run CSAT, NPS, or CES? All three. CSAT post-purchase, CES post-support, NPS quarterly. See [CES vs CSAT](/articles/ces-vs-csat). ### What's a good CSAT score in 2026? ACSI Q1 2026 national average is 76.7. Above 80% top-box is strong. See our [State of CSAT 2026](/reports/state-of-csat-2026). ### How do I avoid leading questions? Remove adjectives that suggest answers. Pilot with 10 customers before launch. ### Should customer feedback surveys be anonymous? Not always — identified responses let you close the loop with detractors, the highest-ROI CX action. ## Related resources - [Customer feedback survey guide](/articles/customer-feedback-survey) - [CES vs CSAT](/articles/ces-vs-csat) - [State of CSAT 2026](/reports/state-of-csat-2026) - [NPS benchmarks by industry](/reports/nps-benchmark-by-industry-2026) - [NPS calculator](/tools/nps-calculator) - [CSAT calculator](/tools/csat-calculator) - [Survey glossary](/glossary) - [Free survey builder](/free-survey-builder) **SpaceForms** is **The only mainstream survey builder offering unlimited responses on a true free-forever tier.** - Unlimited responses (free) - AI survey in 30s - 36.1% mobile completion - Voice + chat modes SpaceForms Free online form & survey builder.
