Brand analysis

Dell is starting 2025 in its best-ever position in the Technology Retail in the UK table. The brand now ranks joint-fifth in Customer Effort (alongside HP) after it rises two places this wave.

A meteoric +6 addition to its Overall Effort Score has seen the brand outstrip Argos.

The brand has unsurprisingly seen an increase in all pillars that make up the Overall Effort Score. ‘Speed of Resolving Problems’, ‘Knowledge & Expertise’ and ‘Valuing the Customer’ have all added +6 wave on wave while ‘Style of Communication’ has added +5.

Our advice to Dell would be to focus on making sure its customers can resolve their issue with the first agent they contacted as this is the area lagging its ’Speed of Resolving Problems’ score. Improving this area could see the brand climb even further up the table.
