                                                        Push Data into Salesforce

                                                        Data collected in your surveys can provide powerful insights into your customers’ levels of satisfaction and engagement, as well as their likelihood of renewing or continuing their patronage. Keep your customer records fresh and relevant by pushing survey data directly into Salesforce.

                                                        This feature is available only in our Enterprise plan. Contact us to take advantage of this option.

                                                        Here’s how:

                                                        1. Create or select the survey you’ll use to collect feedback.
                                                        2. Within Design, click Instant Alerts in the Design menu bar.
                                                        3. Choose Rules & Alerts from the dropdown menu. On the page displayed, you can create, edit, view, delete, enable, or disable rules.
