Technology Retail in the US
Amazon sits at the top of the US Technology Retail rankings for the fourth straight quarter, but this time it is alongside Apple and Samsung. This came despite it dropping its Overall Effort Score by -1 wave on wave to 62.
The main reason for the drop came from its Speed of Resolving Problems score of 59, which was a -1 drop compared to the previous quarter. Within this pillar, 45% rated how easy it was to find the information they wanted on the website/app as 'excellent', while 50% rated how they were able to achieve what they set out to do, or resolve their issue, with the first agent they contacted as "excellent"
With the other three pillars remaining the same, there is still plenty of room for improvements next time around.
