Methods & process

Product adoption

The degree of real, regular use of the product by a customer.

Definition

Product adoption measures how far a customer actually and regularly uses the key features. Strong adoption is the best predictor of retention; declining adoption is an early churn signal.

Why it matters

Adoption is the central usage signal for the Customer Success Manager, and a clue of expansion opportunity for the Account Manager when it nears the limits of the plan.

How Phano helps you

Phano reads adoption signals in your analytics tools and cross-references them with the rest to judge both risk and opportunity.
