Question BoardMR

Perfect for conducting mass qualitative research, this tool allows researchers to structure questions in a Q&A style for a group or individual environment.

A ‘backbone’ of structured verbatim questions can be scheduled in advance. Once posted, participants are encouraged to answer each in a thoughtful manner through email and web notifications. Moderators can later ask for further details or clarification via private prompts thus supporting the creation of in-depth qualitative data.

For increased engagement moderators can embed video and image-based stimuli into questions. The tool also encourages participants to make use of the wide range of response options in order to generate thought-provoking insight. HTML formatting, emojis, GIFs, and image upload facilities all contribute to a constructive discussion that can include emotive forms of communication.

Question BoardMR is perfect for collecting qualitative data with well-considered and reasoned opinions. Some noteworthy cases of using Question BoardMR are web development and reputation management.

SmartboardMR

SmartboardMR is an innovative and interactive tool that acts as a visual forum for discussion. Participants comment on images, leaving sentiment tags and written explanations of their opinions. The tool blends both quantitative and qualitative feedback into one tool, offering both statistical data and the reasons behind it.

SmartboardMR enables platform members to ‘tag’ specific, locational image elements with sentiments. Participants can colour code a ‘tag’ - green for positive comments, amber for neutral and red for negative. Alternatively, researchers can manually code any non-tagged comments after the task has been completed.

Participants can also add annotations to the tags. Researchers can choose whether a SmartboardMR will be private or public. On a private SmartboardMR, participants can only view their own comments. On public smartboards, participants can view and comment on the tags left by others, enabling constructive conversations all on the image itself. SmartboardMR uses this data to generate detailed heatmaps, displaying the most and least popular elements of the image.

SmartboardMR is an excellent tool for research in brochure design testing and online shopping journey testing.

Open Polls

Open polls are an easy-to-use tool that provide a fast and effective way of generating qualitative feedback.

Using this feature, researchers can create a short, open-ended poll question designed to understand a single topic. Open polls take the format of a simple question that requires a written, qualitative answer. An open poll can be published on the InsightHub homepage (within a widget). This simplified access and submission process encourages participants to engage in qualitative tasks even when time is short.

Once an open poll has closed, answers can be immediately exported or used to generate word cloud visualisations. The creative visualisation easily presents complex opinions from a large group of consumers, and can be displayed to both researchers and participants.

Open polls are perfect for asking an initial question to ascertain broad opinion on a particular topic. These answers can then inform further research and more substantial questions in later tasks.

Some noteworthy cases of using open polls are product naming and feature development.
