FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention generally relates to collecting and collating of various feedback responses from customers through handheld computing machines. The invention more particularly relates to querying the customers who opt a product or a service about their satisfaction about the product or the service, and accumulating the same data into a centralized computing machine. The accumulated data at the centralized computing machine is then processed and derived to generate various customized reports that help to analyze the business landscape of the customer satisfaction and create new marketing strategies.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In a traditional customer feedback management system, a customer is provided with a paper feedback form after buying product/goods or after obtaining a service(s) from the commercial establishments. Example: at automobile car outlets, at automobile service centers, at hospitals, at retail establishments, at restaurant chains, at training institutes, corporate trainings or other similar type of company providing products or services to its customers.
Typically, a customer provides response feedback in a paper form and this feedback information doesn't reach the management many a times due to reasons such as feedback form mismanagement, wear and tear of paper based feedback form etc. Additionally, a customer who has provided feedback wouldn't be contacted back (either thanking him/her for taking/buying their service or product and for providing the feedback). Additionally, in case of paper response form, there is a high possibility of feedback information being modified or tampered by the company staff
Another drawback of existing system is manual intervention to consolidate the report into a readable format for the management and substantial time required to do this consolidation. Though after converting the paper readable feedback form to a digital data, the converted digital data are very poorly managed by storing them in certain spreadsheets such as Microsoft excel. This prevents the product or service owners in a state where they will be unable to obtain real time data regarding customer satisfaction and also prevents the product or service owners from deriving customized reports from the digitized data.
In another scenario, the customer on providing the feedback data to any digital data reader device, the digital data reader device must store the data on its local database and later must be manually transmitted to the centralized database either exporting the feedback data to a computer readable form or entering the same feedback data manually.
This indulges more time, people and resources to manage and transport the feedback customer data to centralized data repository server.
Hence there is a requirement for a system and method for managing the customer feedback data digitally and securely. Also there is requirement for storing the customer provided feedback data temporarily and transferring temporarily stored data to the centralized database later depending upon the availability of the internet resource.
The above mentioned shortcomings, disadvantages and problems are addressed herein and which will be understood by reading and studying the following specification.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a system and method to collect and collate of various feedback responses from customers through handheld computing machines.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a system and method for storing the feedback responses received from the customers, temporarily in the hand held computing machines.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a system and method for transferring the temporarily stored feedback responses in hand held computing machines to the centralized database based upon the availability of the internet connection.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a system and method for utilizing the feedback responses stored in the centralized database to generate customized data reports.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a system and method for providing tamperproof data of customer satisfaction rating and comments to the product or service owner in real time.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a system and method of providing discount coupons, vouchers and other offers to the customer based on the feedback provided by the customer
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a system and method of providing a web application which presents the user feedback data in a structured format.

The various embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for collecting and collating various customer feedback data, the system comprising a hand held computing machine, a storage means embedded into the hand held computing machine to store the customer feedback data temporarily, a means for transmitting customer feedback data from the hand held computing machine, a active wireless data transmission network to send and receive customer feedback data, a centralized computing machine capable of receiving the transmitted customer feedback data and a storage means connected to the centralized computing machine to store the transmitted customer feedback data wherein the customer feedback data is provided through the hand held computing machine to be stored temporarily in the embedded storage of the hand held computing machine and transmit the stored temporary customer feedback data from the handheld computing machine to the centralized computing machine through a means of active wireless data transmission network.
Further, the method of collecting and collating various customer feedback data the method comprising steps of a customer providing a feedback data on a hand held computing machine, the customer feedback data is stored temporarily on the hand held computing machine if no active internet connection is available, the customer feedback data is transmitted to a centralized computing machine from the hand held computing machine on discovering and connecting to a active internet connection and the customer feedback data gets stored in the storage medium on the centralized computing machine wherein the customer feedback data stored in the centralized computing machine is used to derive various customized data reports using a web application and offer to create unique marketing activities by the owner of the product or the service provider to the customer.
Conventionally, a customer provides response feedback in the paper form and this feedback information doesn't reach the management many a times due to reasons such as feedback form mismanagement, wear and tear of paper based feedback form etc. Additionally, a customer who has provided feedback wouldn't be contacted back (either thanking him/her for taking/buying their service or product and for providing the feedback). Additionally, in case of paper response form, there is a high possibility of feedback information being modified or tampered by the company staff.
The process of collecting and collating various customer feedback data begins with providing a hand held computing machine to a customer who has bought a service or a product to rate the service or the product and answer few questionnaires relating to the same. The hand held computing machine is basically a touch screen computing machine such as a smart phone or a tablet computer and the smart phone and tablet computer comprises at least an operating system such as iOS, android or windows. As the system and method for customer feedback data collection and collation is a software application, this software is installed on any smart phone and tablet computer which comprises at least one of the iOS, android or windows operating system platforms. This software application for the purpose of the convenience is termed as eFMS (e-Feedback Management Systems) mobile application as the customer feedback is collected, collated and stored electronically.
The installation of eFMS mobile application on the handheld computing machine begins with the mobile application asking for valid software license key. Installation is incomplete without entering the valid software license key and authenticating the same over an active internet connection. The entered software license key is validated via internet at the centralized computing machine alternatively known as a server. During the time of validation, Unique Hardware Identification Number (UHID) of the hand held computing machine is sent to the web application on the centralized computing machine along with the valid software license key data. In this manner the information (feedback and customer information) relevant for a company is stored exclusively in the web application server alternately known as centralized computing machine. Further, already existing users of eFMS mobile application can add more number of licenses at any point of time (as a part of their expansion). Theses license key will be sent to the client registered e-mail id along with the procedure of activation of the mobile application.
Before providing the hand held computing machines to the customer which have ePMS mobile application preconfigured and installed, for rating a product or a service, the sales representative will input or select little information relating to the product or service the customer opted for. This little information comprises at least a product or a service detail that the customer opted for, name of the sales representative who was responsible for providing the product or service to the particular customer and an internal tracking number such as a bill or an invoice number. The information related to the list of products or services, list of sales person for that particular branch or outlet is entered in the web application and this information flows into the mobile application software installed on the handheld computing machine. Only valid and relevant data can be chosen and this information is entered via a web application at the centralized computing machine or from the web application at the owner's end by authorized persons of the company.
On providing a hand held computing machine to a customer who has bought a service or a product to rate the service or the product and answer few questionnaires relating to the same, the customer enters few personal details with the feedback and comments. The personal details includes at least a customer name, a customer email address, a customer phone number, feedback information such as opinion about the service obtained during the purchasing process, experience of the customer, the quality of the product or service etc.
These and similar questions with the content of the feedback information is
configurable, customizable, created and entered in the web application by the company management. The feedback form on the hand held computing machine also includes a provision to enter free text in the form named as "comments" or "suggestion", numerical feedback ratings and a submit button to complete the feedback cycle. On clicking the submit button on the hand held computing machine, the data selected by the sales representative combined with the data of the customer feedback data is transmitted to the centralized computing machine through a secure https protocol.
As soon as a customer submits the data by pressing the submit button on the hand held computing machine, a pop-up screen is displayed. This screen will provide a 'feedback' to the customer who has provided a feedback. The message that is displayed in this pop-up screen is dynamic depending on the rating that was provided by the customer. For example, messages in the pop-up vary when minimum 25% of the feedback is 'bad' and when greater than or equal to 75% are rated 'excellent'.
On obtaining the customer feedback data, the eFMS mobile application on the hand held computing machine checks whether an active internet connection is available or not. If an active internet connection is not available, the ePMS mobile application on the hand held computing machine stores the customer feedback data temporarily on the database created in the memory embedded to the hand held computing machine. For this purpose, the embedded memory on the hand held computing machine must be at least capable of storing 512 megabytes of data. On detecting an active internet connection by the eFMS mobile application, the hand held computing machine transmits the temporary data stored on the embedded memory is transmitted to a centralized computing machine which also known as a server computer. The centralized computing machine stores the received data on a data storage devices such as magnetic discs, magnetic tapes etc.
A company or an owner of a product or service registered to receive customer feedback is provided with a unique user ID and password to enter into the web application of the eFMS. Management of the company or an owner of a product or a service can view the report on the feedback data provided by the customer based on period, product or sales representative. The management of the company or an owner can also create customized reports by using the available data stored on the centralized computing machine also know as server computer. For example, the management of the company or an owner can create a report which extracts age of customers who are opting for the particular product or service in a specific duration of time. Further, the management of the company or the owner has option to change the feedback questions/content, delete or add sales representative and product/service description. This gets reflected in the handheld device via internet connection.
Further, management of the company or an owner can take decision to either provide discount voucher to all the customers or set of customer (those who are dissatisfied or to those who are satisfied). Discount vouchers then will be either is mailed to the customers or SMS message is sent to their mobile number (as provided by the customer while providing the feedback). This feature is configurable at the web application. Also, management of the company or an owner can frame customized feedback questions, list down their products or services offered to their client, list down the sales representatives responsible for a particular outlet or branch and access feedback reports for their various branches using the web application. Also, existing users of eFMS web application who have muUiple operating locations where the e-FMS mobile application is deployed can view the reports based on the location.
