Amazon has moved to the fourth spot in the Technology Retail rankings for Australia, from sixth, following a +1 point boost in its Overall Effort Score.

Most notably, the Valuing the Customer experienced a +1 point boost. Its customers ranked the tech company well for how easy it is to find the information they wanted on the website/app, ranking Amazon as ‘excellent’.

Its other three pillars, Speed of Resolving Problems, Style of Communication and Knowledge and Expertise, have maintained its scores of 56, 60 and 55 respectively. This marks the third quarter at 55 for Knowledge and Expertise, highlighting a potential area of focus for Amazon this coming quarter.

This isn’t to say customers rank them low. Almost half of its customers scored them highly on all three parts under this pillar, from the expertise of Amazon’s customer service agents to their understanding of customer needs.
