Question: Customer portal is a _______ offering.

Explanation
A customer portal is a self-service offering that allows customers to view, open, and reply to their support tickets independently. HubSpot Service Hub provides portals to reduce ticket volume and empower users to manage their interactions on their own schedule. Portals improve customer experience by giving transparency and control without direct agent involvement.
Why the other options are incorrect
Knowledge base: Portals manage tickets; knowledge bases provide informational articles.
Help desk: The help desk is agent-facing for ticket management.
Customer feedback: Portals do not collect survey responses; feedback tools do.
