Funnel steps

The STARS framework is a consistent way of measuring feature engagement and satisfaction. Here’s the purpose of each step:

S

Segment

Make sure you segment your customers down to the relevant audience for the feature. For example, some features are only available to customers or to trial accounts.

T

Tried

This step indicates feature awareness.
How many accounts have interacted with the feature at least once?

A

Adopted

This is the activation step for the feature. How many companies got beyond trying the feature and really adopted it by using it more than X times?

R

Retained

The retention step is activated accounts that got beyond the Adopted step and are still using the feature after X weeks.

S

Satisfied

This is the holy grail. Accounts reaching this step are both retained and also happily using the feature based on their CSAT rating.
