Literature Review-
1. Various researchers have studied about customer experience quality-
In the present scenario, customer experience has become the next battleground for
the organization. After commodity, goods and services, customer experience has
become the fourth offering for the organization (Pine and Gimore, 1998). Also the
satisfaction level of each customer depends upon his/her positive or negative
experiences (Myer and Sachwager, 2007). It thus a vital role in purchasing done
by customers. Moreover the customer experience depends upon a series of
interactions between the customer and the organization and it thus forms the basis
of reactions. The evaluation depends upon the comparison made by the customer
between his/her expectations and the stimuli arising from the interface with the
organization in its offerings and their associations with different instants of touch
or contact points (LaSalle and Britton, 2003, Gentile et al, 2007).
2. They measure it-
Developed generalized scale for measuring customer experience which have been used in
different application areas.
Grace and O’cass (2004) dealt with the post consumption experience of the bank
customer and identified the effects of constructs (core services, employees service,
service cape) of feeling, satisfaction and brand attitude of the customer.
Novak et al (2000) proposed an instrument in order to measure customer experience in an
online environment using web pages, arousal, challenge, control, exploratory behavior,
flow, interaction, involvement, etc.
