This Help Doc is designed to encourage bot builders and admins to think about how they are measuring success with The Bot Platform.
When it comes to the value that a bot is adding to a user and/or the broader business, success can be measured in a variety of ways - often based on which area of the employee experience the bot is aimed to improve.
For example, the success measures for a New Starter Onboarding bot will look different to those of a Help Desk or Employee Recognition program.
From a top level perspective, there are 3 broad areas to look at when thinking about how to measure success. These areas are…
Usage - how many staff are using the bot and how regularly? How easy to use is The Bot Platform for bot builders and admins?
Impact - how has the bot helped solve, improve or automate the task(s) it was designed for?
Feedback - what has the reaction been from staff and stakeholders?
Example metrics for each area are
Usage
Bot usage (at launch and ongoing)
Adoption among target group of staff
Delivery / engagement rate on broadcasts
How easy The Bot Platform is to use for builders / admins (+ time/money saved on builds)
Impact
Processes completed
Speed & accuracy of process completed
Process improvements (eg. automating manual, time consuming processes)
Time / money saved
Increases in staff awareness / engagement / participation in key programs
Increases in staff usage + engagement of other tools / platforms / systems
Improvements in information access and delivery
Accessibility and always-on benefits
Feedback
NPS scores from bot users within the bot flow (including ignored messages)
Positive feedback from staff / bot users (channel comments, company culture surveys, anecdotal)
Management buy in / support / praise
