Our company

Why ERDIL?

Marketing the best products, offering the best services, delivering the best experience or offering the best prices, this is no longer enough to make your company stand out. Your customers are increasingly well informed, are one step ahead with the latest technologies, and are ever more critical and demanding. They demand more in terms of ethics and transparency, and want to see your actions are aligned with the brand’s promises.

Employee’s expectations have changed too: finding meaning at work has become essential and many candidates are no longer prepared to accept just any old working conditions. They want to share common values with their company.

To address theses challenges, you have to demonstrate your commitment towards all of your stakeholders. This can only be achieved by putting the Voice of the Customer and Employee at the heart of your business strategy.

We have been specialising in the automatic semantic analysis of customer feedback for 17 years and can help you achieve this goal!

How can you transform the Voice of the Customer, Employees and all stakeholders into a source of added value for your company?

Since ERDIL was created in 2007, we have been at the service of brands helping them to gain a better understanding of their customers’ expectations or disappointments, and of their employee feedback.
Our solutions enable you to detect the reasons for satisfaction or disappointment and give you the opportunity to react accordingly.

Strong principles are in ERDIL’s DNA

Human + Artificial Intelligence (Icon)

A qualitative analysis combining artificial intelligence and the human expertise of our skilled linguists, who will support you throughout project. Our 17 years’ experience analysing millions of messages has proven that this combination is the most effective. It also guarantees better reactivity and traceability.

Output interfaces usability (Icon)

Esatis, an ergonomic output interface created in close collaboration with our clients. It enables our users to exploit analysis results optimally and to identify actionable levers. Esatis also includes a variety of tools which allow you to exploit the Voice of Customer further and detect weak signals which would go unnoticed with a manual analysis.

ERDIL's Engagement (Icon)

A day-to-day commitment (described in our code of ethics) to all of our stakeholders: clients, employees, partners, not to mention the consumers whose feedback we analyse. Our commitment is demonstrated in two important initiatives: our support and our CSR engagement.
