Module: Telephone Interviewing (CATI)

Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) is one of the most expensive ways of collecting data for a survey, but at the same time one of the most exact and valid methods. Catglobe offers complex CATI processes and settings to get these data collected as efficiently as possible while ensuring high quality responses. Main actors in regards to CATI is the Survey Responsible and the Interviewer.

Face to Face interviewing is also known as a Hall test. It is a way of collecting answers from respondents by bringing a laptop to the location, where respondents can most easily be reached and then asking them questions in person while inserting the answers to the laptop. The challenge is that these laptops will normally be offline and thus creates a need for synchronizing questionnaires and collected data between server and client. Face to Face Interviewing is normally administered by the System Administrator.

Features – System Administrator

Module: Dynamic Reporting

Using a combination of monitor sites, dynamic diagrams and dashboards, we give the end clients a possibility to do advanced analysis on their data themselves. This includes various diagram types, where users can control elements like time line, products, filters, target groups, comparison filters and much more. The diagram types available are tracking, comparison, single, campaign, and cross. Furthermore, dashboards make it possible to make completely new dynamic visualizations and interpretations of data. Such dynamic reports and sites will normally be set up by a Report Creator.

Features – Report Creator

Support
Dashboards are a way of showing data in which several diagrams are presented in one overview – they may instantly change, based on a choice of filter in a list box or drop down in the same dashboard. v
Cross tabulations – a dynamic diagram type, where the user is free to choose what information to use as axes as well as general filters and statistical settings. v

Module: Security and Framework

Catglobe is a system supporting many simultaneous users with several different reasons for logging in. Furthermore, the system is meant to be used across time zones, languages and cultural borders. Catglobe is in many ways also a system for creating systems and subsites for its users. Finally, the system is focusing on ensuring that any piece of data is only shown to those for whom the information was meant. All of these focus areas have resulted in a highly configurable environment, enabling managers to create the exact environment that suit their company’s needs and requirements. The main roles supporting this will be the System Configuration Manager, who will initially set up the system, as well as the System and Data Managers, who are the company assigned main administrators of data.

Catglobe kan anvendes som et let system til afvikling af analyser, men tilbyder samtidigt avancerede muligheder for specificering af workflows og automatisering af store indsamlings-, analyse-, og rapporteringsprocesser.

I forhold til alle andre analysesystemer er det unikke ved Catglobe, at samtlige moduler er bygget op omkring den samme kerne, hvilket betyder, at alle elementer og forhold taler harmonisk sammen.

Dette betyder, at man aldrig behøver at flytte data fra et miljø (et projekt, en lokalitet el. lign.) til et andet. Det betyder ligeledes, at man aldrig skal gøre samme ting to gange samt at man undgår fejl, der oftest er bekostelige på flere planer.

Workflow-delen i Catglobe er ligeledes unik, idet alle processer i modulerne kan automatiseres og aktiveres, enten betinget af CG-script (det interne kodesprog) eller betinget af udfald af svardata eller manglende respons.

Dette betyder, at en virksomhed kan skræddersy en endeløs proces fra projekt og dialog til rapportering, advarsel og handling.

Catglobe taler sammen med de mest kendte systemer, lige fra ERP, CRM, BI samt øvrige feedbacksystemer.

Catglobe er en 100 % online løsning. Hovedparten af vores kunder vælger at få løsningen hostet hos os, mens andre vælger at hoste løsningen selv.
