About this tool
Collecting exit feedback is useless unless your team systematically aggregates, normalizes, and acts upon the data. Cancellation reasons are often concentrated: a few causes tend to account for most of the losses—such as lack of onboarding guidance, missing integrations, or unaddressed bugs. By inputting your recorded cancellation counts across standardized categories, founders can immediately identify their primary churn driver and see which core issues account for the vast majority of lost accounts. This clarity allows product and engineering teams to prioritize fixes that will have the greatest mathematical impact on customer longevity. Use this tool to analyze your churn reasons.
How It Works
- 1Enter your tracked cancellation reasons and the count of accounts citing each reason.
- 2Review the automated percentage distribution and cumulative Pareto analysis.
- 3Identify the top 80% churn drivers requiring immediate product or customer success intervention.
Formula & Math
Transparent LogicPercentage (%) = (Count for Reason / Total Cancellations) × 100
Worked Practical Example
A SaaS records 100 cancellations: 50 'Too expensive', 30 'Missing features', 20 'Bugs/Technical issues'.
Calculation / Steps
Too expensive: 50%, Missing features: 30%, Bugs: 20%. Cumulative: 50% + 30% = 80%.
Expected Result
Cost and Feature Gaps account for 80% of all cancellations (Pareto drivers).
