Struggle and Experience Scores
By analyzing dozens of action types and behavioral patterns, Glassbox's proprietary Struggle Score Engine helps you understand each visitor's struggles and how they affect their experience. The Struggle Score Engine analyzes the correlation between the dozens of touchpoints comprising each user's unique journey and its impact on their overall experience, allowing you to act on each user experience with confidence.
Additionally, you can apply Struggle Scores as filters across all Glassbox modules to pinpoint high-struggle journeys or low-struggle sessions, enabling targeted improvements that reduce points of friction and optimize customer experience.
Glassbox also provides a customizable Experience Score feature that allows you to score the behaviors and events in each session that are important to your business goals and workflows. The Experience Score complements the Struggle Score by incorporating elements from the journey that indicate a positive or a negative experience. For instance, clicking on 'request support' could be scored to indicate an overall customer experience issue, even if no digital struggle was encountered.

Example of Using Struggle and Experience Scores:
An online retail company might use Struggle and Experience Scores to analyze the product search and purchase process. The business can use Struggle Scores to identify where customers encounter difficulties, such as repeated dead clicks or long focus times. Experience Scores can measure the overall satisfaction of customers who complete the purchase process versus those who do not.
For example, the company might discover that many customers struggle during the product search step.
