Customer experience tools help brands improve user experience to better engage customers and drive results

Market analysts anticipate rapid growth for the global UX market, from an estimated $465 million in 2021 to over $1.3 billion in 2028. Companies know that investing in UX initiatives will lead to better customer engagement and retention. Let’s take a look at several customer experience tools that brands can use to optimise the digital user experience. 

Customer Experience Tools Improve UX 

UX—or user experience—is a critical element for increasing sales, repeat customers, and overall business value. Without a good brand experience, customers find it hard to stay and engage. Pain points in this area can deter even loyal customers from completing transactions. Unsatisfactory UX also makes it hard for customers to recommend a brand to friends and family. On the other hand, excellent UX leads to higher levels of customer satisfaction, increased sales and completed transactions, and an attractive brand reputation. 

To provide the best UX, brands need to leverage the right customer experience tools across multiple channels. These instruments include marketing automation tools, social media management platforms, sales automation tools, and customer feedback tools. 

Marketing Automation Tools 

Marketing automation tools take care of routine manual tasks like email campaigns, lead generation, and nurturing. Sophisticated tools are also capable of segmenting audiences and analysing campaign outcomes. One commonly used tool is email marketing automation, which saves time by completing required tasks: 

  • Schedules emails for targeting and follow-up 
  • Personalises content 
  • Optimises subject headings 
  • Analyses email campaign performance 
  • Reports email campaign outcomes 


Email automation improves UX by immediately following up with targets. Email marketing tools also personalise content and serve customers’ needs by sending them the right information appropriate to their journey stage. 

Social Media Management 

Social media management tools help brands maintain a social presence and oversee activities across platforms. Brands can use these tools to: 

  • Schedule posts 
  • Publish content, including multimedia formats 
  • Recycle posts across social platforms 
  • Engage with customers on social media beyond business hours 
  • Direct customers to landing pages, FAQ pages, and customer service 
  • Analyse and report social media performance 

Social media management tools engage users with relevant content and timely posts. These tools can be optimised to engage audiences during peak hours on different social media channels. As customers spend more time online, social media management tools also improve user experience by providing automatic answers to basic questions (e.g., What are your business hours? Where are you located?) and directing customers to the right resources. 

Sales Automation 

Similar to marketing automation, sales automation tools handle routine tasks that take up a great deal of time. These include: 

  • Following up with leads 
  • Segmenting prospects 
  • Sending invoices 
  • Scheduling client appointments 
  • Forecasting sales 
  • Analysing and reporting sales performance 


Sales automation tools can help personalise follow-up strategies like targeted emails and campaigns for specific leads and audience segments. They are also useful for handling delicate scenarios like payment reminders—without any personal interaction between customers and personnel. These automations help improve users’ experience and smooth out potential areas of friction along the customer journey. 

Feedback Tools 

Customer feedback tools like surveys tap directly into an audience’s thoughts to assess user experience. They can also collect information about: 

  • User satisfaction 
  • User pain points 
  • Customer expectations 
  • Areas for improvement 
  • How customers use products, services, or digital channels 
  • How customers navigate digital channels to get what they need 
  • The amount of effort required to resolve an issue 

To truly gain valuable insight, feedback tools should be optimised to obtain customers’ responses quickly in a manner that suits them. Survey tools must also be designed to ask simple questions that draw genuine answers. Customer insights can then be applied to improve user experience and drive conversions in customer journeys. 

In summary, brands can use customer experience tools to understand and improve users’ experiences through automation, personalisation, engagement, and feedback. CX tools include marketing automation tools, social media management platforms, sales automation tools, and feedback tools like surveys.
