Tech Vendor Client Success Ratings

December 28, 2015 Leave a comment

Are tech vendors helpful in making their IT clients successful? To answer that question, we surveyed 800 IT decision makers from North American companies with at least $250 million in annual revenues.

We asked the following question:

“How helpful are these IT vendors in making sure that your organization successfully achieves its desired value from the products and services that you have purchased from them?“

Responses are on a scale from 1 (not at all helpful) to 7 (extremely helpful).

Temkin Group created the Client Success Ratings (CSR), which is the percentage of respondents who answered 6 or 7. As you can see below, the average CSR is 61%.
