Quant/Hybrid

ahaQuant™

Driven by client demand for hybrid approaches, aha has a full suite of quant tools that are ideal to support qual/quant initiatives. This provides aha clients with the ability to conduct larger studies with projectable sample sizes using qual respondents, which are better vetted than quant sample thereby minimizing fraud risk. Our quant tools include all the features you would expect in a quant survey (dropdown menus, matrix, ranking, skip logic, pipe sum, and so much more) to enable more complex, in-depth consumer and B2B research studies, all available on one intuitive platform. Quant-only studies can be executed, as well.

This hybrid approach gives clients access to the power of qual/quant along with aha’s best-in-class programming, project management, study design services, and analytics.

Video Capture

Times have changed dramatically in the respondent video upload arena. aha has eliminated multiple steps in the video capture and upload process, making mobile apps obsolete.
