5 Ways MongoDB Puts Customer Experience First

Here at MongoDB, we obsess over customer experience. Dedication to the customer experience is part of our culture and the way we do business at MongoDB. Even if you haven’t heard the term customer experience (or CX) before, you probably have an intuitive sense of what it means. CX is the sum of all the interactions someone has with a company and can encompass anything from navigating a website, to dealing with customer service, to learning how to use a product. MongoDB is not alone in thinking the customer experience is a big deal. Consumer sentimen t (both B2B and B2C) indicates that companies who do not mold their practices around their customers’ desires do so at their peril. For example: 74% of customers are likely to buy a product based on favorable CX 66% of customers want companies to understand and address their needs And, a whopping 96% of customers say that CX is crucial for loyalty to a business At MongoDB, across the organization and at all levels, there is an expectation to do everything we can to understand our customers’ technical and business goals and to help our users achieve those objectives.
