Sector Effort Score benchmark: 59 Samsung (US) vs 58 Samsung (US) last quarter

With a +1 rise for Samsung, a + 3 point rise for Apple and a -1 drop for Amazon, the top of the US Tech Retail rankings now looks congested with three companies all sharing first place with a score of 62.

Samsung performed very well in this quarter after improving by +1 point in three of the four pillars, with its Style of Communication score now sitting at 65. 50% of its customers are saying the politeness of their customer service agents is 'excellent'. If the company can improve its Knowledge and Expertise score of 62 then the company may find itself on its own at the top of the table.

In October, the worldwide Samsung operation was ranked third in Forbes list of the world's best employers. A factor that relates well to its customer service operations.
