Inquisite Survey 9.5 Gives Individual Users and Organizations Alike an Easy-to-Use, Yet Full-Featured, Secure Online Survey Application

Market Wire, May, 2009

Inquisite ( www.inquisite.com ), an established provider of online survey software designed to help organizations easily collect, understand and manage feedback, today announced Inquisite Survey 9.5 , making it easier-than-ever to target online survey recipients; increase response rates; protect application access and survey data; and export fully-editable survey results into Microsoft Office applications for customized reports and presentations.

With version 9.5, Inquisite releases industry-leading reporting capabilities, allowing users to export live data directly from the survey application to Microsoft Excel, Word or PowerPoint, where it can be edited and presented with the full power of those applications. Inquisite Survey 9.5 even supports Microsoft Office Themes, allowing users to make dramatic changes to the presentation of survey data with just one mouse click.

Also new to Inquisite Survey 9.5 is automatic synchronization of a survey population with existing employee and customer databases. With this feature, the optimal survey population is easily created by defining the desired attributes of the population then importing groups of employee or customer records that match those attributes. With Inquisite 9.5 continually staying in-sync with the databases, any changes to employee or customer records are automatically reflected in the survey population. Inquisite 9.5 users never have to spend time or effort manually importing records; and never have to worry about whether their surveys are going to appropriate individuals.

Inquisite Survey 9.5 builds on the company's reputation for privacy and security by adding Single Sign-On (SSO) support. With SSO, when a survey respondent logs-in to their corporate network, their identity is also verified in the Inquisite system and surveys in-waiting are automatically presented. And with survey access privileges being managed by an organization's own authentication system, IT administrators rest easy knowing their security protocols are in control.

Finally, Inquisite Survey 9.5 features a new Email Relay Capability, which allows survey emails to be automatically handed-off from the Inquisite system, where the message content is generated, to the user's email server, for distribution. This ensures that survey emails aren't mistakenly flagged as spam, improving delivery success rates and increasing survey completion rates.

Low-end survey tools may be suitable for occasional, informal Q&A exercises. But professional market researcher firms, corporate market researchers, and individuals in government and higher-education will appreciate Inquisite Survey 9.5 for its ability to securely, and in many ways automatically, create an ongoing process for collecting, analyzing and reporting information; and may be surprised by its ease-of-use, adaptability to existing work environments and return on investment.

"To our customers in both the private and public sector, surveying is about connecting the dots between the known and the unknown so that more strategic actions can be taken with the information that is learned," said James Martin, chairman and CEO of Inquisite. "Inquisite Survey 9.5 makes it easier and more secure than ever to connect those dots. We make sure our software is conforming to the customers' processes and integrating with their most critical applications in a way that makes surveying an integral part of their business."
