Setting up auto-responders
What is an auto-responder? An auto-responder is an email that is automatically sent to respondents who have completed a survey. The email is based on the scores that the respondents have given.
For maximum efficiency, the automatic response is sent 30 minutes after the survey is completed. Additionally, you can configure an autoresponder for any score value that you want.
An auto-responder can be a useful tool to thank your customers for their feedback and to let them know their opinion matters.
