What’s the fizz about SODA™?

Introducing SODA software for mobile phone surveys

View Press Release

Designed to enable complex surveys on mobile phones, the Survey On-Demand Application (SODA) platform is the latest technology from the mobile research specialists at Techneos. The increasing adoption of mobile phones is drawing the attention of social and market researchers. Until now, however, options for mobile phone research have been very limited. The SODA platform is a breakthrough solution with unique capabilities for creating, conducting and managing mobile phone surveys.

The SODA platform utilizes wireless and Internet infrastructures, as do SMS (Short Messaging Service) and web surveys. Unlike them, our technology allows data to be collected even when a network connection is not available, ensuring that your research project can be carried out at any time and place. By eliminating network delays from the data collection process, productivity is maximized and the user experience improves. For a data collection solution that runs on mobile phones without constricting you to areas of network coverage or simple research designs, the SODA platform is your clear choice.

The SODA beta version is now available on a limited basis. If you need to do research that uses a particular model or family of mobile phones or that requires comprehensive user and case management, then we invite you to discuss a SODA pilot project with us. Otherwise, the Entryware™ system offers a powerful, proven platform for mobile research using Palm® OS, Windows Mobile®, and Windows® devices.
