The importance of customer feedback for business success
Feedback is great to help
User feedback is of great help, but not all of them will be beneficial, some will just make you waste time, money, and productivity. Your customers appreciate your communication much more with what they report and suggest, than what will actually be implemented in the service or product.
Focus on making it clear which user was heard, respond to feedback, whether it's good or bad. Never ignore them, it will only drive the user away from you.
Feedbacks are more user questions or problems to be resolved. And when solving the customer's demand, you will have the final feedback of that specific moment. Remember: feedback is not the end of the assessment, it is part of the assessment process.
The evaluation that each customer makes about you and your company is constant, never stops, and changes easily.

Not all comments have relevant importance, many of these feedbacks will be lost in time, without the interest of the user who reported it. Making it disposable fast.
Now that you know. Let's understand together how to consider, analyze and discard each feedback without the user feeling ignored.
How to deal?
Efficient Communication
The first step is to communicate efficiently with your user community. Don't keep him waiting too long, try to be as fast as possible. Build a relationship of trust with the user, show that you are there for what they need.
Product Updates
Frequent updating is the best way to always communicate with your customers, always communicating what is being fixed, what's new next, what changes are made every week. Show that your team is there working hard to deliver the best user experience and service.
Always let them know what's going on, bugs fixed, improvements, new additions.
Promote user interaction
User interaction with the SaaS tool, in particular, is very powerful because it brings users closer to the platform and makes all the communication between users and suppliers easier. Whether through votes, emoji interactions, and even comments between them, that are visible for your team to understand what's going on in the community's mind.
Feedback: Why should I listen to my customer?
Evaluate common feedback
Many of the feedback was lost due to lack of importance over time, others will grow and gain strength due to the high demand of the community. Evaluate what are the common demands of users, which appear most in feedback, whether individual or in interaction with updates.
You appreciate most of the community by providing your requirements and at the same time, demonstrating to other users who haven't had their demands met there yet, that you are indeed working and listening to each of the users.
So you learn how to show your users that they are heard, that they matter.
It also improves the way in which feedback is understood and makes the most of all the power they have to transform your tool, retain those who are already using it, and constantly grow.
