Your on-line survey can be much more than a marketing or research tool, it can also be used to provide information to you and/or your partners to support e-procurement or information service provision. It can also be used to provide information to respondees, based upon the information that they have supplied.

• Information brokering - working in a consortium or partnership, information captured could be used to broker relationships with partners/suppliers to meet a specific customer need. Information captured can be used to assess requirements, for instance as part of a pre-qualification or filtering process and shared with authorised parties as required.
• To provide customised information, advice or feedback - rather than using the survey tool solely for information capture, use it to provide a route into information based upon refining and clarifying user needs. Use branched flow combined with information points and our optional database interface to provide a personalised response based upon user requirements. See also our ViewsCount Decision Tree for further details.
• To refine parameters for searching - used as a diagnostic engine ViewsCount can be used to build up and refine a picture of user requirements, which can in turn be used to drive search results.
• Information points – a unique function of ViewsCount, information points can be included at any point to provide help and guidance to those completing the questionnaire, but also useful reference sources, documents and links.
