QualBoard: The world's most advanced online research platform

QualBoard® takes advantage of threaded ‘Bulletin Board’ technology. QualBoard® participants log in at times and from locations that are convenient to them, answering questions posted by a moderator while reading and responding to the other participants’ comments. All of the discussion is visible onscreen to the client observers in a “virtual backroom”.

 

A QualBoard® typically takes place over a 3-7 day period – with respondents participating 2-3 times each day. Because of the longer timeframe and the come-and-go nature of the discussion, most QualBoard® discussions have 10-30 participants, rather than 8-10 common in in-person or real-time online groups.

 

As a researcher, you have unprecedented capabilities to understand your market. In addition to standard questions, you can also ask:

• Multi-media questions to get responses with pictures or video
• Webcam response questions to get one-click recording from the participant’s webcam
• Built-in multiple-choice and multiple answer questions
• Segmented questions that only go to a sub-group of respondents

When it is time to do your analysis, QualBoard® makes it easier than ever. The segment report lets you compare segments at the push of a button. Content tags, profile tags and searchable transcript dramatically reduce analysis time and improve insights.
