What is the Customer Excellence Index (CEI™)?

The CEI™ is a single score you can track, compare and improve. It provides an outside-in view of how customers experience your brand — based on what they say, do and signal publicly, not just how they respond to surveys.
Icon
Service Experience & Care
Externally visible service quality signals, including complaints, friction, support effectiveness and self-service success.
Icon
Product Value & Innovation
Verified product ratings and signals that reflect product relevance, usefulness and ongoing value.
Icon
Customer Voice & Advocacy
Public sentiment, discussion volume, recency and advocacy — how customers collectively talk about and represent your brand.
Icon
Brand Trust & Loyalty
Consistency, credibility and confidence in the brand across public touchpoints and customer interactions.

Traditional Metrics vs CEI™

Traditional metrics measure moments. CEI™ reflects the experience as it appears externally.
Traditional Customer Metrics
A collection of familiar measures — including NPS, CSAT, CES, star ratings and reviews — each designed to capture feedback at specific moments.
What's Included:
  • NPS — customer opinion from those who respond
  • CSAT/CES — satisfaction with specific interactions
  • Ratings & Reviews — visible but often polarised feedback
  • Snapshot views rather than continuous experience
  • Limited visibility into trust, consistency and friction over time
Purpose:
To monitor specific interactions and internal initiatives using structured, solicited feedback.
RECOMMENDED
