NPS question
The Net Promoter Score question (NPS) measures the loyalty of the client. The NPS indicates which percentage of the clients is very satisfied with your organization. The clients are divided in three categories:
- Detractors: clients who mark your company between a 0 and 6 score.
- Neutrals: clients who mark with a 7 or an 8 score.
- Promotors: clients that mark with a 9 or a 10 score.
When the data has been retrieved, the next calculation is done to calculate the NPS score:
(number of Promotors — number of Detractors) / (number of Respondents) x 100
The score can vary between -100 and +100. An NPS above zero is viewed as good, a score above 50 is excellent.
The NPS is shown in the Results Page. Please be aware: the NPS is only calculated when the question contains 0 until 10, when you use 1 until 10 the system will calculate the average.
