What 96 Arbolus experts think of Nielsen

NPS scores are skewed strongly positive, with most responses in the 8–10 range and only isolated negative outliers. Renewal intent is robust: nearly all high-spend Influencers (>$100K) indicate they will renew. Implementation stage is mature for over 90% of responses, confirming platform stickiness. Key feedback themes highlight operational impact (campaign efficiency, retention, lead optimization) but also note the steep learning curve and pricing at scale. The dominant sentiment is high satisfaction fueled by tangible value realization.Overall Customer Sentiment: Positive
