Sentiment Analysis

Use sentiment analysis in Data 360 to evaluate unstructured text and learn how customers feel about your brand, product, or service. For each record, such as a customer review or survey response, the model assigns a positive, negative, or neutral label and a confidence score. To filter audiences, build dashboards, and trigger automations, apply the model outputs.

Considerations

Before you apply a sentiment analysis model, review these considerations.

  • Use clean, relevant text data, such as customer reviews or case comments.
  • Combine sentiment with other data, such as behavior or demographics, for better insights.
  • Analyze trends over time rather than individual results.

Limitations

Before you use sentiment analysis, review these limitations.

  • Short, vague, or highly technical text is difficult to interpret.
  • Sarcasm and nuanced language affect accuracy.
  • Results depend on the quality and context of the input data.
