Rating Scale
Learn how to use NPS-style rating scales in GenZform for measuring customer satisfaction and loyalty.
The rating scale (also known as NPS scale or Likert scale) displays a horizontal scale of numbers, typically 0-10, with labels at each end. It's the standard format for Net Promoter Score (NPS) surveys.

When to Use Rating Scales
Rating scales are perfect for:
- Net Promoter Score (NPS) surveys
- Customer satisfaction measurement
- Likelihood questions
- Agreement scales
- Effort scores
NPS asks "How likely are you to recommend us?" on a 0-10 scale. Responses are categorized as Detractors (0-6), Passives (7-8), and Promoters (9-10).

What's NPS and how is it calculated?
NPS (Net Promoter Score) measures customer loyalty. It's calculated as: % Promoters (9-10) minus % Detractors (0-6). Scores range from -100 to +100.
Can I use a different scale?
Yes! While 0-10 is standard for NPS, you can use any range: "Use a 1-5 scale" or "Create a 1-7 scale."
Can I add a middle label?
Middle labels (like "Neutral" in the center) are not currently supported. Only the min and max labels at the ends can be customized.
