Novice users

Despite being feature-rich, the novice or occasional user can readily create a professional questionnaire and run a survey in SurveyManager. The screen layout is intuitive and critical options contain hover help.

This is supplemented by a comprehensive online manual. When all else fails, we are a phone call away!

Power users

The power user can access advanced features in a special pane at survey design. Features that these people are likely to need include:

  • HTML editing
  • Piping
  • Advanced Boolean rules engine for questions
  • Setting up question or section skips can be set against one or more survey response options in the form of conditional or unconditional jumps:
  • Creating preset exit pages for certain scenarios or conditions with specific messages for participants upon conclusion of the survey.

Paper surveys

ASR has a sister company called Paperhouse Document Management, a full service mail survey & paper projects company. It can help you to automate any paper-based data collection process and turn it into accessible information. Our services include the design and administration of survey research projects, document printing, bulk mailing, scanning and data processing services.

In particular, Paperhouse conducts manual data entry as well as Optical Mark Read (OMR) scanning. OMR scanning enables both the capture of quantitative data quickly, and the subsequent verification and entry of flagged open and closed response fields.
