“Next” step in automation in questfox

questfox now has two simple but kind of powerful tweeks available.

1. The delayed “Next” Button can be shown with a timed delay on each question page.
This feature is to be used when you want to make sure, that people do not just click through your questionnaire without reading the information.
You can give your respondents a certain amount of time to think about before they can advance by clicking “Next”.

The example shows a setting where the NEXT Button only appears after 8 seconds of screentime of the question.

2. The auto-submit “Next” Button can be automatically set after a defined time in seconds.
This feature can be used to set pressure on the respondents on each page.
You might want to integrate an animated GIF Button counting down from ten in steps of a second to support the understanding of this feature. It could also be used to create a self running demo of your questionnaire.

The example shows a setting where the auto-submit NEXT is launched by questfox after 5 seconds of screentime of the question.

auto_submit_NEXT_questfox

Both settings are defined in the page settings of each question page. The default is 0 (which is also used to switch the function off again)

Continents drift apart in questfox

The new continent selector is online inside of questfox.com.

Even though we strongly believe in the pangea concept of continents very close together, we are sometimes forced to show a world from above, where people tend to be dfar away from each other.

The world map with the continents to select from is now availaible in questfox under CREATE – MAPS

Renaming Response Groups into Report Groups: questfox reporting features aboute to be updated

We are about to develop a set of new and thrilling reporting features for questfox.

While doing usability testing, some of our testers were constantly worried about the wording of the questfox “response group”.
The powerful feature does make a lot of sense, just the wording seems to be misleading. This is why we renamed it into the clearer description of a “Report Group”.

The Report Group sets togehter a defined filter (even complex filters) and allows the questfox user to see the report of a defined group of respondents based on the criteria set in the Report Group definition. You will find the functionality under “Define Report Groups” in the REPORT section of questfox.

Sending individualized PDF reports with questfox to each respondent right after the interview

The questfox functionality of sending out individualized PDF reports has undergone a facelift and especially a technically improvement. As user reports were becoming longer and longer, showing more and more graphical content, respondents did not want to wait until a server could assemble such a document live. This is why the creation of a PDF report has become a background process managed by the questfox server farm. 


 

How do you send out individualized PDF reports right after an interview?

1. You ask for a respondent’s email address in the survey (CREATE a email input type question)

2, You define the sending of a report to this address (remember to use your individual server settings to send out emails like this. Use the ID of the email adress question as the target variable for the address (ID e.g. 1c7e52f9-7b6f-432c-a015-421701fa932e).

3. Attach a PDF in front and after the individualized report in order to make the PDF more appealing

4. Optional: You can prevent results from being shown in this report by deactivating “Show this page in respondent’s report” in the page settings of each question page Bild


 

 

 

 

All these settings can be defined under “REPORT- PDF Options”

At the moment your contacts will receive an email sent from info@questfox.com. In later versions your own email settings can be applied here too.

 


Speeders stopped in questfox – clients can save money while improving sample quality

Speeding of respondents prevented by questfox

Some respondents tend to speed through a questionnaire for different reasons. There are people who even seem to be able to read entire pages in a second or less.

questfox now offers the opportunity to stop respondents from speeding through a questionnaire. In page settings for each page you can set a limit which should not fall below a defined minimum time. Example: If you defined a speed limit in a page (in seconds) the overall time used until that point is taken into consideration. If a respondent reached page ten already after 55 seconds, the person might be considered to be speeding and will be screened out by questfox (Example if setting in q10 is set to 55). Attention: The overall answer time upto that point is calculated.

You can also set severall speeding control points in a project. Carefully integrate that function into your projects and you will save money and grow the quality of your sample.

 


“None of the above”: new settings for exclusive items in questfox
