Hardware Post-Installation Satisfaction Survey
Captures how customers experienced the installation of physical equipment — from scheduling and technician conduct to whether the hardware has performed as promised since setup. An AI follow-up interview digs into the specific moment satisfaction dropped (or held), turning vague complaints into fixable installation-process issues.
Sample questions
A preview of what’s in the template. Every question is editable before you launch.
Which product or system was installed? (Replace with your product list, e.g. 'HVAC unit', 'Security camera system', 'POS terminal') (Template note: customize this list to your actual hardware lineup before launching.)
- (Replace with Product A)
- (Replace with Product B)
- (Replace with Product C)
- Other
Was the installation completed on the date and time originally scheduled?
- Yes, on the original schedule
- Yes, but rescheduled once
- Yes, but rescheduled more than once
- No, it has not been completed yet
How would you rate the technician(s) who performed the installation, in terms of professionalism and communication?
Thinking about the installation itself, how much do you agree with each statement?
- The work area was left clean and tidy
- The technician explained how to use and maintain the equipment
- The installation took the amount of time I was told to expect
- I received clear documentation or instructions after the install
Since installation, how well has the equipment performed compared to what you expected?
In the time since installation, have you experienced any of the following?
- A malfunction or breakdown
- A follow-up service visit was needed
- Difficulty understanding how to operate it
- Unexpected noise, leaks, or physical issues
- No issues at all
Probe the specific moment that most shaped this respondent's satisfaction with the installation — anchor on their performance rating and any issue they flagged. If they reported a malfunction, follow-up visit, or operating difficulty, get concrete details: what happened, when, and how it was (or wasn't) resolved. If they rated everything positively, ask what one thing would have made the installation experience even better.
How likely are you to recommend this installer or service team to a colleague or friend?
Is there anything else about the installation or the equipment's performance since then that you'd like us to know?
What best describes the size of your organization or household?
- Individual / household
- Small business (1-49 employees)
- Mid-size business (50-499 employees)
- Large enterprise (500+ employees)
- Prefer not to say
Which best describes your role in this purchase or installation decision?
- Primary decision-maker
- Influencer / recommender
- End user only
- Facilities or operations staff
- Prefer not to say
That's everything — thank you! Your answers go directly to our installation and service teams to help us improve scheduling, technician training, and post-install support.

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Goes beyond a static satisfaction score with a matrix of installation-experience statements plus a dedicated technician conduct rating, so you see exactly where the process broke down, not just how respondents feel overall.
- Includes an AI follow-up interview that probes the specific moment that shaped the respondent's satisfaction — turning a vague low rating into a concrete, fixable installation-process issue instead of guesswork.
- Captures post-installation reality (equipment performance vs. expectations, issues encountered since setup) alongside the installation event itself, so you can separate scheduling/technician problems from hardware performance problems.
- Segments respondents by organization/household size and purchase role, letting you see if dissatisfaction clusters around certain buyer types — all synthesized into an auto-generated report without manual analysis.
QuestionPro
Hardware Post Installation Satisfaction Survey TemplateThis is a directly comparable, fielding-ready template covering the same topic — hardware installation satisfaction. It's a static question set built on QuestionPro's established enterprise survey platform, with the usual customization and reporting tools that come with that suite. It does not appear to include any conversational or adaptive follow-up mechanism.
What it does well
- Purpose-built template for the exact same use case (hardware installation satisfaction)
- Backed by a mature, enterprise-grade survey platform with broad customization options
- Likely integrates with QuestionPro's existing reporting and dashboard tooling
Where it falls short
- Fixed question set with no adaptive AI follow-up to dig into why satisfaction dropped at a specific moment
- No automated per-response quality scoring evident
- No published, transparent prompt/methodology for how responses are interpreted
Jotform
Post Installation Customer Feedback Form TemplateA relevant, ready-to-use form for post-installation feedback, built on Jotform's drag-and-drop form builder rather than a dedicated survey research tool. It's easy to customize and deploy quickly, but functions as a static feedback form rather than an interview-style research instrument.
What it does well
- Quick to customize via Jotform's widely-used drag-and-drop form builder
- Simple, lightweight deployment suited to fast feedback collection
- Familiar form-building UX for teams already using Jotform
Where it falls short
- Static form fields with no adaptive AI interview to explore the 'why' behind a rating
- No mention of voice AI interviews or guided screen-share tasks
- No automated quality scoring or auto-generated satisfaction report
