Turn your story into an illumi Award

Every day we work toward the goal of creating and delivering exceptional products and experiences for our customers. After all, without customers, there wouldn't be any businesses. So for most of us, ensuring our customers’ satisfaction means putting ourselves in their shoes in order to truly understand their needs and frustrations. That’s why last year, we honored the amazing work of CX-leading organizations that do just that, with an illumi award.

Growth lies in the value of experiences had by the customer. It’s the brands that can empathize with their customers and turn those insights into action that are seeing the greatest success. -Andy MacMillan, CEO of UserTesting. 

The illumi Awards highlight the amazing work our customers are doing to create world-class experiences for their customers using our Human Insight Platform.
