        Keith Dawson's Analyst Perspectives

        Customer service and support (CSS) is a term with two meanings.

Alternatively, it can be derived from less specific but more numerous data signals that span multiple interactions or across a customer base. Most businesses make an effort to capture some customer feedback.
