San Ramon, CA (April 16, 2019) \u2014 SocialSurvey has raised $14.5 million in new financing and plans to use this round of funding to continue expanding its platform technology and scale aggressively into multiple business verticals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe reputation space is crowded and highly disjointed,\u201d said SocialSurvey\u2019s CEO, Scott Harris. \u201cMulti-location brands often invest in multiple products to support their online reviews, employee engagement, employee feedback and compliance monitoring, but still don\u2019t drive meaningful improvement in customer experience. We solve all that in a single solution.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The software developer is backed by venture capital veterans Curtis Feeny and Jim McClean of Silicon Valley Data Capital (SVDC) and Eric Filipek of Kennet Partners LLC. With this funding round, Curtis and Eric will be joining the SocialSurvey Board of Directors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSocialSurvey captures that critical moment when an employee and customer interact like nothing we have seen. The impact on customer satisfaction and employee behavior is extremely special. We are thrilled to be partnered with this great group of people,\u201d commented Eric Filipek of Kennet Partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to invest in SocialSurvey\u2014it\u2019s a very unique play in the market. SocialSurvey is creating a new experience category by consolidating various technologies into a single open platform that puts the enterprise in control. Who doesn\u2019t want data in motion for driving business?\u201d remarked Curtis Feeny of Silicon Valley Data Capital.
In addition to SVDC and Kennet, SocialSurvey secured additional investment from Greg Hitchan at Tri-Valley Ventures of San Francisco East Bay Area fame and the ventures team at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
