Though Sogolytics is first and foremost an online survey software, it has evolved over the years to become a comprehensive research tool. With over 185 strong features and counting, Sogolytics is every bit a researcher’s panacea. Here’s a small guide on how to use some of our features to turn your Sogolytics account into a wholesome research tool:
Pool in Your Contacts
We at Sogolytics know how difficult it is to come up with 200 potential participants at the drop of a hat. Gathering contacts is a gradual process and can take months or years even. How many times have you lost all your contacts because your PC crashed? You’ll never face that problem on Sogolytics. Sogolytics allows you to store your participants’ information. So the next time you create your survey, just head to Sogolytics’s Contact Manager and choose your participants. It’s that simple!
Use Multimedia
One of the reasons why people love Sogolytics is the flexibility they get in terms of creating Multimedia Surveys. Sogolytics allows you to add images of all sizes, audio files, as well as video clips to your surveys. Match it with an equally exciting theme and you have one hell of a survey!
Put Advanced Tools to Use
Sogolytics’s online survey platform is a mine of advanced features. The Advanced Branching feature routes survey participants around irrelevant questions; Question Display Logic shows or hides questions according to the participants’ interests; all these features along with the many others make your surveys intelligent, crisp, and intuitive.
We Make Your Surveys Social
It would be a shame not to ride on the popularity of social media channels to promote your surveys. Sogolytics allows you to Publish Your Surveys directly on Facebook, Google Plus, Twitter, and LinkedIn. You can also Embed Your Surveys on blogs and websites or post them in the form of a pop-up survey – the options are just too many.
Stay Alert
Here’s a feature that needs a special mention. Sogolytics keeps you posted on anything you deem important; be it negative feedback, answers to a particular question or whether you just like to be posted about each time someone participates in your survey, it can all be arranged. Set alerts on Sogolytics’s Rules & Alerts feature and send some real-time reports along. You can even see to it that a note of thanks reaches each respondent’s inbox as soon as he/she completes the survey. How convenient is that?
Analyze This
So you’ve got the data you needed, now what? Choose from one of our numerous reports – Cross Tab, Individual, Pivot, Statistical, and more, each created to suit a specific need. Just run your data through our reporting wizard and Sogolytics will create a report for you. Don’t worry about spending hours creating MS Excel or PowerPoint presentations. You can extract the report in a format of your choice – Word, Access CSV, XML, SPSS, HTML, you name it and we’ve got it. What’s more, you can even integrate your Sogolytics account with your Google Analytics or Salesforce CRM account for further analysis.
All these features together make Sogolytics a complete research software that needs very little effort on part of the survey creator. Its mobile-compatibility makes it a perfect research tool that can be carried in your pocket, especially for the researcher who is always on-the-go.
