Visitor Feedback Surveys
Gathering feedback from visitors after their experience helps you identify areas for improvement, measure satisfaction, and demonstrate your commitment to a professional, welcoming environment. KyberAccess includes a built-in feedback survey system that automatically sends surveys to visitors after check-out and provides analytics on the responses.
This guide covers how to set up, customize, and analyze visitor feedback surveys.
Enabling Visitor Surveys
- Log in to your KyberAccess dashboard at app.kyberaccess.com.
- Navigate to Settings from the left sidebar.
- Click Visitor Experience under the Configuration section.
- Scroll to the Feedback Surveys panel.
- Toggle Enable Post-Visit Surveys to On.
- Click Save Changes.
Once enabled, visitors who provide an email address during check-in will automatically receive a survey after they check out.
Configuring Survey Delivery
Delivery Timing
- In the Feedback Surveys panel, click Delivery Settings.
- Choose when the survey is sent:
- Immediately after check-out — Sent as soon as the visitor checks out
- Delayed — Sent after a configurable delay (15 minutes, 1 hour, 24 hours)
- End of day — Batched and sent at a specific time (e.g., 5:00 PM)
- Click Save.
Tip: Sending surveys immediately after check-out yields the highest response rates, as the visit is still fresh in the visitor's mind.
Delivery Method
- Email (default) — Survey link sent to the visitor's email address
- SMS — Survey link sent via text message (requires SMS integration with Telnyx)
- Both — Send via email and SMS for maximum reach
To configure SMS delivery:
- Ensure your Telnyx integration is active under Settings → Integrations → SMS.
- In Survey Delivery Settings, check Enable SMS Surveys.
- Click Save.

Troubleshooting
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| Visitors not receiving surveys | Verify that visitors are providing email addresses during check-in. Check spam folders. |
| Low response rate | Try sending surveys immediately after check-out. Keep surveys short (3–5 questions). |
| SMS surveys not sending | Confirm Telnyx integration is active under Settings → Integrations → SMS. |
| Survey link expired | Survey links are valid for 30 days. Visitors must complete the survey within that window. |
| NPS score not showing | Ensure you have an NPS-type question in your survey template. |
Best Practices
- Keep surveys short — 3–5 questions maximum. Long surveys have much lower completion rates.
- Include one free-text question — Star ratings show trends, but comments reveal specific issues.
- Act on feedback — Survey data is only useful if you make changes based on it. Review results weekly.
- Share results with staff — Post monthly satisfaction scores in common areas to motivate your team.
- Benchmark over time — Track your NPS and satisfaction scores month-over-month to measure progress.
