Raosoft, Inc. off-the-shelf programs are a cost-effective method for both electronic and manual data collection, plus report generation.

SURVEYWin provides unique and powerful data collection capacity --- end users can build electronic collection instruments --- and powerful statistical analysis for the data. Applications include training, employee reviews, marketing, CATI, factual data collection, expert system HelpDesks and more. It is a generic collector for data. Form design is simple for easy on-screen drag and drop formatting for even very complex formatting. It can handle hundreds of questions and large databases. The US Air Force has used SURVEYWin for its world-wide command climate and quality of life surveys. But SURVEYWin is easy enough to use for very small collection work, as well.

SURVEYWin runs under Windows 3.x and Win95/98/2000/NT. It gives the questionnaire designer complete control over all elements of the form's appearance. E-mail and LAN surveys include password protection and data validation. Data entry is enhanced with skip by response and conditional logic. All standard question formats are supported, including date of entry, multiple choice, rank order, large comments entry and more. New screens can be created by borrowing and combining elements of previous surveys.

The forms SURVEYWin creates can be electronically distributed using UFill. The executable file this creates can be distributed by email, LAN or mail-out disk. You can also use it for notebook, kiosk, touch screen or pen computer.

Our demos includes tutorials under Help|Content which show how you can quickly create powerful electronic questionnaires and reports.

Reporting in SURVEYWin is based on multi-page, re-usable templates. Drop-in charts and tables provide different views of each data item, with multiple items per page possible. Analysis tools include full text searches, multi-banner cross-tabs, ANOVA and Chi square. Qualitative text analysis is a special strength, and you can categorize comments.

The SURVEYWin network packages include additional modules for network use and remote data entry. Network nodes allow the software to be used from your server.

EZReport provides customizable chart formats and additional analysis functions. Rapid Report provides instant display of results in a preset fashion. UFill creates run-time executables from SURVEYWin forms for LAN or e-mail distribution. Survey Tools does direct database editing for cleaning up data and removing duplicates. The SURVEY-Entry data entry module is also available, for phone-out use and inbound/outbound data collection. In both SURVEYWin and EZSurvey, since they are databases, you may edit and add questions in the future and append or take subsets of the datafiles.

For purchase with these programs, make sure you also get our Tools program, $149, so you can correct any mistakes made in handling individual files, and, if your budget can afford it, we recommend our $600 Technical Support package that will cover the usage of either EZSurvey or SURVEYWin's UFill. We also recommend the EZReport program for most users. This supplements the question by question response analysis of EZSurvey with queries, cross-tabs and multi-page reusable reports and provides customization for SURVEYWin users.
