Comment Insights

Comment Insights is Kincentric's new and improved way to analyze the comments on a survey and will replace the Listen page. You may still see the Listen page if your company has not yet transitioned to Comment Insights. 

In Comment Insights, you can explore the verbatim comments that your employees entered on the survey using a combination of smart filters. Comments should be used to compliment and add context to the quantitative data you receive for your group.

As with the rest of the data, thresholds are in place for the comments as well. The threshold for comments is by number of respondents and the standard threshold is 30.


Before you begin...

Overview

Landing Page
  • Each question is grouped into different summary boxes, the comment Response Rate is listed at the top left side of the box. The Response Rate shown is calculated by taking the count of the number of comments divided by the count of survey respondents. The response rate will update with the use of the group filter(s), but not based on the search feature.
  • The Number of Respondents is the total number of people who took the survey and entered in a comment. This will change when filters are applied to only display the number of respondents that apply to all of the filters you've selected.
  • Top three categories that comments related to is displayed only when asked the participant to select a category for their comment on the survey. The top three are listed based on the highest percent of selections for the category. When there are two categories with the same percentage, they are sorted alphabetically.

Survey Dimensions Being Discussed

Words Being Discussed
