hats, because now you can
assign scores to radio buttons,checkboxes, even drop down menus

can assign point values to eachsatisfaction level and actually
calculate a score.

just calculate, but you can use
those scores to triggerdifferent actions, personalized
follow-ups, all sorts ofautomation magic.
