This document summarizes research into the determinants of customer satisfaction with fitness technology innovations. It reviews theories of diffusion of innovation, planned behavior, and technology acceptance. The research methodology combined independent variables like service quality, device friendliness and helpfulness, and quickness with the dependent variable of customer satisfaction. The results found that all hypotheses about positive relationships between the independent and dependent variables were accepted. Practical implications are that focusing on customer satisfaction through service quality, device usability factors, and other determinants can improve research and development, product/service quality, and customer satisfaction with fitness technologies.
