Leading this charge is Jenn Wolf, the Senior Director of Customer Experience (CX). Jenn’s primary focus is on driving positive customer experiences through research and insights, helping teams build better experiences for customers.

To achieve this, Jenn and her team use Lyssna. While Lyssna was already part of Nav's toolkit when Jenn joined, the addition of our Screeners feature has had a transformative impact on their CX strategy, enabling more precise and impactful research.

Challenge

As Jenn explains, "We needed a way to gain valuable insights about the usability of our site and the needs of our customers through quantitative research."  The goal was to launch surveys and other quantitative tests to achieve this. 

"We needed a solution that would allow us to gain quantitative insights through online research to understand, monitor, and improve our customer experiences."
