- Web-assisted telephone interviewing (WATI) surveys
Web-assisted telephone interviewing is a mixed-mode interview technique where the respondent can follow a telephone questionnaire online under the control of the telephone interviewer, allowing personalised prompt material to be shown in step with the question flow. As part of our Cxoice Survey Technologies, it is very effective for international business-to-business market research to show test materials to difficult to reach audiences for projects such as pricing or conjoint analysis studies where the show materials are too complex to ask about without being seen.

- Marketing intelligence databases
With the need to be able to track and monitor customer relationships and competitor activity, it soon becomes essential to have a good system for capturing this market intelligence so that it can be shared within the organisation and used for analysis purposes.
dobney.com can design and implement bespoke marketing intelligence databases for both competitor intelligence and customer knowledge. These can incorporate data collection tools to automatically extract data from public sources, SQL and noSQL storage with tools for search, data classification and statistical analysis, and front-end systems for alerts, building network graphs, dashboards and automatic newsletters.

- Questionnaire Wizard
From way back in 2000, our original Questionnaire Wizard allowed for the creation of questionnaires straight from Microsoft Word (recommended for use by OUP). The world has moved on and now our Questionnaire Wizard is available for free use as part of our Cxoice Survey Technologies, with options to create questionnaires for print out, or copied into Word, or used online with a research user account. Cxoice now goes to a full survey and insight platform, as we've created new forms of questions and research methods - such as our Rethinking Questionnaires series.
For historical reasons, our old Questionnaire Wizard can be found below. Just decide the type of survey you want to carry out then enter some basic details about your product or service then press one button to get a professional standard questionnaire.

- Private on-line virtual communities
Cxoice enables research teams to build dedicated online communities to build dialogue with customers. Online communities can be used to build panels for market research (MROC - market research online communities), or to interact with active customers as a source of ideas and feedback. Cxoice Communities include sign-up wizards, sign-in protocols, member management, forums and surveys with permission-based access to allow research teams to manage the community whether it is small-scale for qual, or larger for quant.

- Non-linear questionnaires, gamification, social questioning and co-collaboration
Despite the explosion of methods and means for collecting feedback from respondents, many market research surveys still resemble the paper-based surveys of decades ago. Obviously they are still effective, and fine for bread-and-butter or DIY research. However, as audiences become more inured with websites and online marketing, it becomes more important to find ways of keeping (and measuring) attention. Approaches of 'gamification' can be used to make the questionnaire fun, however, there are also other ways of rethinking questionnaires and the process of seeking information from individuals.
