Abstract

The customer sentiments are very important to any business, as positive or negative feedback can affect the sales and adoption of the product in the market and subsequently define the product’s success. The monthly active usage of major social media platform such as Facebook is 2.32 billion monthly active users (MAU) and of Twitter is 126 million; hence, the market for understanding the customer sentiment through social media can be a game changer for a company and can help define the success of the company in the future. If the sentiments of the users are not captured correctly, it could lead to catastrophic failure of the product and hamper company’s reputation. Existing systems require a lot of manual tasks such as customer surveys, aggregating the sentiments then generating excel reports which are not very interactive and require a lot of time to gather results. These reports also do not show real-time data. People express their opinion on social media. Companies can use such platforms to capture honest and transparent opinions of the consumers. The cognitive service evaluates tweet texts and returns a sentiment score for each text, ranging from 0 (negative) to 1 (positive). This capability is useful for detecting positive and negative sentiments in social media such as Facebook, Twitter, customer reviews, and discussion forums. The machine learning model used by the cognitive service helps determine sentiment using data provided by the user. This feedback can allow the company to know the acceptance of the product in prototype stages and can use the same to modify the product as per the customer feedback before making the product generally available. The implementation environment uses Azure services (Logic apps, Cognitive Services, SQL Database, App Services) with Power BI used to generate real-time business intelligent reports to capture customer sentiment, and a Windows 10 workstation can be used to access all these services.
