analysis<\/h5>\n<h5>Thematic analysis is a popular qualitative data analysis method that identifies patterns and themes in data.<\/h5>\n<h5>The process of thematic analysis involves coding the data, which means assigning it labels or categories.<br \/>It can be paired with sentiment analysis to determine whether a piece of writing is positive, negative, or neutral.<\/h5>\n<h5>This can be done using a lexicon (i.e., a list of words and their associated sentiment scores).<br \/>A common use case for thematic analysis in SaaS companies is customer feedback analysis with NPS surveys and NPS tagging to identify patterns among your customer base.<\/h5>\n<h3>Advantages of The advantages of thematic analysis:<br \/>\n<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" viewbox=\"0 0
