Type of Feedback Terminal (Digital Touch Screen vs Plastic Button Terminals)

There are several ways to collect feedback from customers and employee along with various types of feedback terminals that can be used for this collection. In our experience the type of feedback terminal selected can play a big factor into the total cost and performance. Generally the plastic smiley button type terminals, designed to capture one question feedback, are less expensive compared to the digital touch smiley terminals.

Cost should not be the only factor when considering which terminal is best, you should also consider other factors such as the number of survey questions you want to ask and how long the terminal battery needs to last. For example, if you’re looking to only capture one question and don’t have wifi/power accessible then the plastic smiley kiosk might be your best option.

Happy or Not offers both a digital touch screen as well as a plastic button terminal option while SurveyStance only offers a digital touch screen option.

Is the Smiley Terminal Cost Worth It?

When trying to determine if the cost of a smiley terminal is worth the investment comes down to a few factors. Since these types of smiley feedback machines are intended to collect feedback from customers or employee at a physical location, if most of your customers are not visiting a physical location then we don’t suggest using one of these smiley terminals. As an alternative we would suggest using a One Click Feedback Survey for a digital form of the feedback buttons.

Regardless of the solution you get, we truly believe the most important thing is that you collect customer feedback. One of the biggest mistakes we see is companies not have a system setup to get ongoing feedback. Get setup today and let your customers start pushing the button in 2024!
