Sentiment Analysis Case Study on Tokopedia Customer Opinion: From 7000 Posts to Trend Insights

Updated: Apr 17

In today's digital era, companies constantly receive vast amounts of customer interactions across multiple channels, including social media and emails. As one of the largest online marketplaces in Indonesia, Tokopedia actively engages in daily interactions with its customers. The sentiment becomes a benchmark for customer satisfaction and experience. However, the manual processing of customer analysis poses a time-consuming and challenging task. A challenge arises: How to identify emerging trends and address issues from these vast amounts of interactions instantly and accurately? This article delves into transforming customer opinions into actionable insights using AI Sentiment Analysis, focusing on 7.000 Tokopedia customer tweets.





What is Sentiment Analysis?


Sentiment Analysis, a part of Natural Language Processing (NLP), is the process of extracting valuable insights from textual data to find out the sentiments expressed. When analysing customer opinions through tweets, it is common to find multiple aspects addressed in a single tweet. Traditional sentiment analysis typically extracts sentiment from the full text, which leads to oversimplification. Moreover, the approach could incorrectly classify words with different meanings depending on context, resulting in inaccurate sentiment classification. On other hand, Advanced Sentiment Analysis provides a more detailed understanding by associating sentiments with specific topics or issues.


For instance, the term "crazy" tend to be associated with negativity regardless of whether it describes an exciting experience or an irrational situation. We analyse an example of tweet that says, "The new features are crazy, but sometimes the service is lacking."


Traditional Sentiment Analysis Perspective:

  • The sentiment output will be only negative, ignoring the positive aspects of excitement.

Advanced Sentiment Analysis Perspective:

  • The sentiment output will be positive for Features and negative for Service, providing a more nuanced and accurate sentiment analysis.

 

By utilizing This Sentiment Analysis, we uncover the stories embedded in 7,000 Tokopedia customer tweets. Each tweet was categorized based on sentiment and related topics, allowing us to quickly pinpoint various topics related to customer sentiment. This Advanced Sentiment Analysis reveals several issue topics of Tokopedia Customer, including top-up issues, registration issues, refund issues, and many more.
