More about qualitative & quantitative research

Qualitative research empowers research and insights teams to provide context-rich storytelling in their data by enabling respondents to share their perspective through the medium of recorded video and/or audio. This provides all stakeholders the opportunity to better understand the human behind the data points.

Organizations typically use mixed method research tools and qualitative research analytics software to glean deeper insights from their findings once gathered. These tools enable them to input data from a range of sources — interviews, focus groups, surveys, customer feedback, tickets and more.

The development of digital qualitative research solutions allows any team across an organization (research, consumer insights, product, HR, Operations, and more) to conduct video feedback research exclusively in the XM platform.

Starting with a new point-and-click question type, any survey can now allow respondents to easily record a video response from any video-enabled device (desktop or mobile). These responses are automatically transcribed and analyzed to display topic and sentiment analysis. To make data stories more compelling, the new video editor capabilities allows teams to create clips of the most impactful insights. Those clips can be compiled in highlight reels to land powerful research narratives within any dashboard.

This user-friendly interface makes it easier than ever for organizations to carry out qualitative data analysis on our qualitative research platform, as well as use the findings to support business goals.

Many research teams will choose to run both quantitative and qualitative research studies on the same project. While quantitative research provides quantifiable data (as the name suggests), qualitative research adds human emotion and empathy to create a richer, more contextualized insights story.

For example, combining quantitative methods like surveys with interviews and focus groups to further validate findings and provide a more representative picture.

Researchers might also consider using open-ended questions within customer feedback surveys to probe much deeper into a respondent’s answers. This increases the likelihood of the respondent sharing valuable information that they might not have otherwise.

So when it comes to analyzing qualitative and quantitative data, they have a more holistic view.

Often senior leadership in organizations appreciate hearing directly from the actual voice of customers, and non-customers, to get a better understanding of their business.
