Voice of customer software that turns every conversation into revenue

What is voice of customer software? An essential guide for revenue teams

Voice of customer (VoC) software captures, analyzes, and activates feedback from your buyers and customers across every channel—calls, emails, meetings, and more. It’s the engine behind understanding what your market actually thinks, wants, and expects. Why does this matter? Because in today’s B2B landscape, the difference between guessing and knowing is the difference between missed quotas and market leadership.

VoC software isn’t just about collecting feedback. It’s about transforming raw conversations into actionable insights that drive product innovation, sales performance, and customer loyalty. By centralizing customer input, VoC platforms help organizations spot trends, identify risks, and close the loop—fast.

Why do businesses use voice of customer software? Three reasons stand out:

  • Uncover hidden buyer needs: VoC software surfaces what customers are really saying—so you can build what they’ll actually buy.
  • Drive product and messaging alignment: Real-time feedback informs product roadmaps, sales playbooks, and marketing campaigns.
  • Accelerate revenue growth: Teams that act on customer insights close more deals, reduce churn, and expand accounts.
Common features/components of voice of customer software include:
  • Omnichannel conversation capture (calls, video, email, chat)
  • Automated transcription and sentiment analysis
  • AI-powered topic and keyword tracking
  • Customizable dashboards and reporting
  • Integration with CRM and enablement platforms
