 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY

Customer satisfaction is a term frequently used in marketing. It is a measure of how

products and services supplied by a company meet or surpass customer expectation. Customer
satisfaction is defined as "the number of customers, or percentage of total customers, whose
reported experience with a firm, its products, or its services (ratings) exceeds
specified satisfaction goals."

In a competitive marketplace where businesses compete for customers, customer

satisfaction is seen as a key differentiator and increasingly has become a key element of
business strategy.

"Within organizations, customer satisfaction ratings can have powerful effects. They
focus employees on the importance of fulfilling customers' expectations. Furthermore, when
these ratings dip, they warn of problems that can affect sales and profitability.... These metrics
quantify an important dynamic. When a brand has loyal customers, it gains positive word-of-
mouth marketing, which is both free and highly effective."

Therefore, it is essential for businesses to effectively manage customer satisfaction. To

be able do this, firms need reliable and representative measures of satisfaction.

"In researching satisfaction, firms generally ask customers whether their product or
service has met or exceeded expectations. Thus, expectations are a key factor behind
satisfaction. When customers have high expectations and the reality falls short, they will be
disappointed and will likely rate their experience as less than satisfying. For this reason, a
luxury resort, for example, might receive a lower satisfaction rating than a budget motel—even
though its facilities and service would be deemed superior in 'absolute' terms."

Customer satisfaction is an ambiguous and abstract concept and the actual

manifestation of the state of satisfaction will vary from person to person and product/service
to product/service. The state of satisfaction depends on a number of both psychological and
physical variables which correlate with satisfaction behaviors such as return and recommend
rate. The level of satisfaction can also vary depending on other options the customer may have
and other products against which the customer can compare the organization's products.

 A mobile app is a software application (app) designed to run on mobile devices such
as smart phones and tablet computers. Most such devices are sold with several apps bundled
as pre-installed software, such as a web browser, email client, calendar, mapping program, and
an app for buying music or other media or more apps. Some pre-installed apps can be removed
by an ordinary uninstall process, thus leaving more storage space for desired ones. Where the
software does not allow this, some devices can be rooted to eliminate the undesired apps.

If you go back to the history of the mobile applications, then you can clearly figure out
that a few Java games, a calculator or monthly calendar were all that came under the category
of mobile apps. However, the first smart phone was announced for the general use by IBM in
1993 that was equipped with the features like calculator, world clock, and calendar and contact
book. The BlackBerry Smartphone released in 2002 was the next major achievement in the
field of mobile application development and it was marked by BlackBerry Limited, formerly
known as Research in Motion Limited (RIM) and integrated with the innovative concept of
wireless email.

On the 3rd day of April 1973, the first mobile phone call was made by Martin Cooper
of Motorola to Dr. Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs.
And, it took two decades of Research and development (R&D) to get first mobile application
for smart phones, and the credit goes to IBM Simon, who introduced the world with the first
mobile apps for smart phones.

TOPIC RELATED CONCEPTS:-

WhatsApp messenger is a proprietary, cross-platform instant messaging service for

Smart phones without having to pay for SMS. In addition to text messaging, users can send
each other images, video and audio media messages as well as their location using integrated
mapping features. The client software is available for Google Android, BlackBerry OS, and
Apple iOS, selected Nokia Series 40, Symbian, selected Nokia Asha platform, Microsoft
Windows Phone and BlackBerry 10.

WhatsApp Inc., was founded in 2009 by Brian Acton and Jan Koum, both former
employees of Yahoo. After Koum and Acton left Yahoo! in September 2007, the duo traveled
to South America as a break from work. At one point they applied for jobs at Face book but
were rejected. For the rest of the following years Koum relied on his $400,000 savings from
Yahoo. In January 2009, after purchasing an iPhone and realizing that the seven-month-
old App Store was about to spawn a whole new industry of apps, he started visiting his friend
Alex Fishman in West San Jose where the three would discuss ".

Having statuses next to individual names of the people," but this was not possible
without an iPhone developer, so Fishman introduced Koum to Igor Solomennikov, a developer
in Russia that he had found on RentACoder.com. Koum almost immediately chose the name
"WhatsApp" because it sounded like "what's up", and a week later on his birthday, on February
24, 2009, he incorporated WhatsApp Inc. in California. However, early WhatsApp kept
crashing or getting stuck and at a particular point, Koum felt like giving up and looking for a
new job, upon which Acton encouraged him to wait for a "few more months".

The application eventually launched in November 2009 exclusively on the App Store
for the iPhone. In January 2010, support for BlackBerry smart phones was added, and
subsequently for Symbian OS in May 2010 and for Android OS in August 2010. In August
2011 a beta for Nokia's non-smart phone OS Series 40was added. A month later support
for Windows Phone was added, followed by BlackBerry 10 in March 2013.

WhatsApp was switched from a free to paid service to avoid growing too fast, mainly

9
because the primary cost was sending verification texts to users. In December 2009 WhatsApp
for the iPhone was updated to send photos. By early 2011, WhatsApp was in the top 20 of all
apps in Apple's U.S. App Store.

In August 2014, WhatsApp released an update to its Android app, adding support
for Android Wear smart watches.

On January 21, 2015, WhatsApp launched WhatsApp Web, a web client which can be
used through a web browser by syncing with the mobile device's connection.

On February 26, 2016, WhatsApp announced they would cease support for BlackBerry
by the end of 2016.

In May 2011, a security hole was reported which left WhatsApp user accounts open
for session hijacking and packet analysis. WhatsApp communications were not encrypted, and
data was sent and received in plaintext, meaning messages could easily be read if packet traces
were available.

In May 2012 security researchers noticed that new updates of WhatsApp no longer sent
messages as plaintext, but the cryptographic method implemented was subsequently described
as "broken". In August 2012 the WhatsApp support staff said that messages were encrypted in
the "latest version" of the WhatsApp software for iOS and Android (but not BlackBerry,
Windows Phone, and Symbian), without specifying the cryptographic method.

In February 2014, the public authority for data privacy of the German state
of Schleswig-Holstein advised against using WhatsApp, as the service lacked privacy
protection such as end-to-end client side encryption technology. WhatsApp started
implementing end-to-end encryption in late 2014 and finished in April 2016.

From April 5, 2016, end-to-end encryption for all users' communications, including file
transfers and voice calls, is supported for users of the latest client, encryption being enabled by
default.

Competing with a number of Asian-based messaging services (like We Chat (468

million active users), Viber (209 million active users) and LINE (170 million active users),
WhatsApp handled ten billion messages per day in August 2012, growing from two billion in
April 2012, and one billion the previous October. On June 13, 2013, WhatsApp announced that
10
they had reached their new daily record by processing 27 billion messages.

WhatsApp, a dream come true of talking to a friend sitting oceans apart through radio-
waves, means absolutely free.

This is where WhatsApp walked in to make life easy for Smartphone users. It leveraged
on the increasing popularity of the term, ‘stay connected’. Where people wanted staying in
touch with their friends and loved ones for as low a price as possible, WhatsApp removed the
price aspect from it.
