“We thank our EKI partner for recognizing that there was a tremendous opportunity for our two companies to team up and fuse the worlds of mobile and market research technologies for optimum consumer engagement levels,” notes Jereme Thomas, IT Director at Quester.

To date, over four million consumers and professionals from the medical, pharmaceutical, insurance and CPG sectors have interacted online with Socrates, Quester’s software-based interviewer. Survelytics, which is a native App, now allows respondents to go beyond typical survey questions on their mobile phone and leverage the additional features of the mobile device like taking photos, videos and audio, as well as chatting with Socrates.

Commenting on the partnership with Quester, Mandar Vaidya, CEO of Eki Communications, said: “We are excited to integrate Socrates with Survelytics as it provides our users an intelligent tool for ‘in the moment’ engagement with the consumer.”

The Socrates software is conversational in nature. It not only understands the consumer language in context but can also probe intelligently for more definition, elaboration or implication using the respondents’ own language. In doing so, the Quester surveys can capture respondents’ thoughts, ideas and emotions.

“Our goal is to continue bringing market research innovations to our clients and partners; the ability to probe open-ends in a mobile platform allows them to take their mobile research to a new level,” says Garrett McGuire, who has recently joined Quester as Vice-President of Product Marketing with solid Consumer Insights experience in the retail sector.
