Most insight teams don’t have an engagement problem – they have a visibility problem.
Research communities rarely fail overnight. Engagement slips slowly. Participation drops quietly. By the time response rates decline or stakeholders start asking questions, teams are already reacting rather than managing intentionally. That’s the gap Community Statistics is designed to solve.
From Guesswork to Vissibility
Community Statistics gives teams a clear, centralized view of community health so they can understand what’s working, what’s declining, and where to focus without adding more work.
Instead of relying on instinct or manual tracking, teams can see:
- How engagement trends over time
- Which activities and formats perform best
- When members are most active
- Who is engaged, disengaging, or at risk
This turns engagement into something you can manage proactively, not react to after the fact.
Built for Always-On Research Communities
For teams running ongoing research communities or panels, sustained participation is everything. Community Statistics helps teams:
- Identify and repeat high-performing engagement formats
- Catch disengagement early
- Improve data quality without increasing incentives
- Confidently answer the question, “Is this community still working?”
It’s not about more reporting. It’s about the right signals, surfaced in real time.
Engagement as a Compounding Asset
When you can consistently see and act on engagement health, research communities become stronger over time. Best practices repeat. Weak spots surface early. Value compounds. And because Community Statistics is included at no additional cost for QuestionPro Communities customers, every community benefits from built-in health monitoring.
Communities aren’t just about collecting responses. They’re about sustaining relationships – and that starts with visibility.
