Focus on results

In January 2020 we ran our fourth peer-compared IT Customer Satisfaction Survey. This year shows continued increases in satisfaction numbers, similar to the one in 2018.

There was a good response in both the number of respondents and verbatim comments – (536 responses, 150 comments). Our vendor, InfoTech, confirmed that the results are statistically significant.

Continued improvement in customer satisfaction was seen over the past 4 surveys, across all categories:

• Enabling PCC’s goals up 13% (65% → 74% → 78% → 78%)
• Services offered up 12% (67% → 74% → 79% → 80%)
• Communication up 9%   (67% → 74% → 78% → 79%)
• Application suite up 4%   (70% → 74% → 79% → 80%)

In addition, our “Net Promoter Score” (the key metric used by marketers to measure customer satisfaction) was up 3.75% year-over-year.

From a benchmark perspective, we continue to score higher than other higher-ed institutions in their population.
