Momentive’s Product Upgrades

Recently, Momentive announced the launch of its SurveyMonkey Enterprise app for Zoom. The app provides an embedded feedback experience that is accessible within both the Zoom meetings and the desktop client. By funneling crucial stakeholder insights, Zoom will have the ability to create more meaningful interactions, thus boosting meeting effectiveness, tracking attendee engagement, and improving the experience of the employee, customer, and patient. According to a recent study, even with the pandemic conditions lifting, many believe that the Zoom culture is here to stay.

The new features leverage AI capabilities to deliver insights that are expected to be similar to what a full-service market research agency would provide these customers, but with speed and at scale. Some of the capabilities added through the technology include a usages and attitudes solution that can help users understand the preferences, habits, and purchase behaviors of their target audience, a consumer segmentation solution to ensure the right classification of end customers, a product optimization solution that simulates real-world trade-offs to identify the right products to release, and a pricing optimization capability to arrive at the right price point for the product.
