QualJournal

Providing your participants with an easy and fun way to journal their thoughts and experiences.

Built around a robust blogging engine, QualJournal™ provides your participants with a secure, easy and fun way to journal their thoughts and experiences. To provide the most insightful information, QualJournal™ includes a full-featured WYSIWYG editor plus point-and-click embedding of photos, videos and other user-generated content.

There are also several features to support your efforts as the researcher:

  • For each study, you have access to a central management console, for keeping participants up-to-date on assignments, setting expectations and providing encouragement and suggestions to everyone.
  • As participants are recording their thoughts, you can view all blogs (in real time) from a central site – there’s no need to hop from blog to blog.
  • When the project is over, the transcript of the blogs can easily be exported to a PDF file or an excel spreadsheet.
  • QualJournal™ has all the features of popular public blogging systems plus the security, confidentiality and analysis tools you need. Build you own blogging community far away from public view.

QualJournal™ is an easy, flexible and cost-effective way to conduct research. Not including recruiting related expenses, the cost is only a few dollars per participant per day, with up to 120 participants allowed per project. Further, there is no set-up fee or maximum project length. Costs include Technical Support, a customized blog “skin” with your logo, User Support Manual and, most importantly, complete training.

Enhancements to QualJournal™ V1.5 – the newest version of the platform – include the following:

  • Improved reporting functions, including new sorting and filtering capabilities
  • An updated “assignment based” entry system that organizes entries based on themes or activities
  • Improved moderator probing and follow-ups
  • A reporting archive that stores previously generated transcripts, simplifying analysis on long-term projects
  • Participant progress indicators that highlight incomplete activities or assignments
