Abstract

In some examples, one or more processors of a computing system may receive telemetry data from a plurality of devices, user identifications (IDs) of a set of users of the plurality of the devices, and information from social media indicative of user sentiments toward the devices. The computing system may predict user experience related to the devices based at least in part on the telemetry data, the user IDs, and the information from the social media.

obtain user identifications (IDs) and information from social media associated with a first set of users of a plurality of devices;

predict user sentiments toward the plurality of devices based on the obtained user IDs and the information from the social media, wherein the user sentiments comprise at least one of a positive sentiment and a negative sentiment toward the plurality of devices; and

in response to the prediction, perform or control the performance of at least one of the operations to:

send an offer for an add-on product to at least one user of the first set of users predicted to have the positive sentiment toward the plurality of devices, and

send at least one of a corrective information, a suggestion, or an upgrade to at least one user of the first set of users predicted to have the negative sentiment toward the plurality of devices.

9 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions comprise instructions that, in response to execution, cause the one or more processors to perform or control performance of at least one of the operations to:

match at least a portion of the user sentiments to one or more of the user IDs; and

associate the matched one or more of the user IDs to one or more of the plurality of devices.

10 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions comprise instructions that, in response to execution, cause the one or more processors to perform or control performance of at least one of the operations to:

group a second set of users of the plurality of devices into a plurality of clusters, wherein each of the plurality of clusters of users is associated with a respective user sentiment towards the plurality of devices.

12 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein each of the plurality of clusters includes users sharing similar experiences related to the plurality of devices.

13 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the second set of users of the plurality of devices are grouped into the plurality of clusters based on operation and usage of the plurality of devices by the second set of users.

11 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the executable instructions comprise instructions that, in response to execution, cause the one or more processors to perform or control performance of at least one of the operations to:

generate, based at least, in part, on the grouped second set of users, a first list of users from the second set of users having the positive sentiment towards the plurality of devices, a second list of users from the second set of users with a potential problem with the plurality of devices, and a third list of users from the second set of users with a particular user case with respect to the plurality of devices.

14 . An apparatus, comprising:

at least one processor;

at least one non-transitory computer readable medium coupled to the at least one processor and encoded with executable instructions that are executable by the at least one processor to:

receive, from a plurality of devices, sensor data associated with the plurality of devices;

predict, for a set of users, one or more user sentiments toward the plurality of devices based on the received sensor data, wherein the one or more user sentiments comprise at least one of a positive sentiment and a negative sentiment toward the plurality of devices; and

in response to the prediction:

provide an offer for an add-on product to at least one user of the set of users predicted to have the positive sentiment towards the plurality of devices, and

provide at least one of a corrective information, a suggestion, or an upgrade to at least one user of the set of users predicted to have the negative sentiment towards the plurality of devices.

15 . The apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the at least one non-transitory computer readable medium that is further executable by the at least one processor to:

receive, from the plurality of devices, user identifications (IDs) and social media information, associated with the set of users, wherein the prediction of the one or more user sentiments toward the plurality of devices is further based on the received user identifications (IDs) and social media information, associated with the set of users.
