SocialSurvey Raises $14.5 Million in Series A
San Ramon, CA (PRUnderground) April 23rd, 2019
SocialSurvey has raised $14.5 million in new financing to continue expanding its platform and scale into multiple business verticals.
“The reputation space is crowded and highly disjointed,” said SocialSurvey’s CEO, Scott Harris. “Multi-location brands often invest in multiple products to support their online reviews, employee engagement, employee feedback and compliance monitoring, but still don’t drive meaningful improvement in customer experience. We solve all that in a single solution.”
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.
“SocialSurvey 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,” commented Eric Filipek of Kennet Partners.
“We’re thrilled to invest in SocialSurvey—it’s 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’t want data in motion for driving business?” 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 local East Bay Area fame and the ventures team at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati.
