Rating fields provide a simple way to add numerical ratings to records. This field type is commonly used for rating products, services, or other items, allowing users to quickly perform qualitative analysis of data.
When you want to add rating data to a table, you can choose to add a rating field. Here’s how:
You can set the maximum value for ratings, such as common 5-star or 10-star ratings. This maximum value determines the range of ratings users can choose from.
By default, rating fields use star icons for display, but depending on your needs, you can choose other icons or symbols.
If you’re running an online store or app store, rating fields can help you quickly see user ratings for each product, helping you understand which products are popular.
For service-based businesses, you can use rating fields to collect customer feedback on your services, making it easy to identify areas that need improvement.
Rating fields can also be used for internal employee performance evaluations, allowing managers to quickly rate employee performance.
Combined with long text fields as comment fields, users can provide specific feedback or suggestions along with their ratings.
Using formula fields, you can calculate a comprehensive average score based on multiple rating fields, which is useful for considering evaluations from multiple aspects.
