Overview

The company's instant feedback is enabled in part by the use of a feedback button that can be placed on websites, or a survey as a feedback option.{{cite book | last1=Lindahl | first1=D. | last2=Rozek | first2=J. | title=The Six-Figure Second Income: How To Start and Grow A Successful Online Business Without Quitting Your Day Job | publisher=Wiley | year=2010 | isbn=978-0-470-87201-7 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8gM7hNHmxV0C&pg=PA228 | access-date=July 24, 2017 | pages=228–229}} The software also has a rater, whereby users can rate a website per their satisfaction with it on a scale of one to five. Such feedback can enable companies and webmasters to assess consumer satisfaction with websites and can aid in the discovery of problems on websites. Kampyle's service also enables companies to generate sales lead generation from customers that "identify themselves as sales prospects".

The feedback platform has 60 language translations. In 2008, Kampyle's feedback base was usable in unison with Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google that tracks and reports website traffic, and Nuconomy, enabling "side-by-side analysis of user feedback and website analytics".{{cite web | last=Carthy | first=Roi | title=Kampyle Ties User Feedback to Website Analytics | website=TechCrunch | date=July 28, 2008 | url=https://techcrunch.com/2008/07/28/kampyle-ties-user-feedback-to-website-analytics/ | accessdate=October 16, 2016}}{{cite book | last1=Tonkin | first1=S. | last2=Whitmore | first2=C. | last3=Cutroni | first3=J. | title=Performance Marketing with Google Analytics: Strategies and Techniques for Maximizing Online ROI | publisher=Wiley | year=2011 | isbn=978-1-118-07670-5 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9Kb2MNcTKTMC&pg=PA216 | access-date=July 27, 2017 | page=216}}{{cite book | last1=Tonkin | first1=S. | last2=Whitmore | first2=C. | last3=Cutroni | first3=J. | title=Výkonnostní marketing s Google Analytics | year=2016 | isbn=978-80-251-3958-5 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sQjqCwAAQBAJ&pg=PA226 | language=cs | access-date=July 27, 2017 | page=226}} The company's software is also used on mobile phones and in retail stores.{{cite book | last1=Thomas | first1=B. | last2=Housden | first2=M. | title=Direct and Digital Marketing in Practice | publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing | year=2017 | isbn=978-1-4729-3908-1 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PXgnDwAAQBAJ&pg=PT415 | access-date=July 24, 2017 | page=pt415}}
