The Challenge

Ezell's growth brought the challenge of managing customer engagement at scale. The management team used to spend an estimated 40 minutes a day manually going through customer feedback. Their manual process of printing, highlighting, and reporting feedback was labor-intensive and inefficient. This underscored the need for an automated solution to help the business save precious time and deliver the best customer experience possible.
