Toluna Launches Qualitative Omnibus

Toluna’s Quali MultiMind Omnibus™ provides clients with quick access to high-quality, affordable hybrid research data.

(Wilton, CT - September 4,2012) Toluna, one of the world’s leading online research respondent and technology providers, today announces the launch of the Quali MultiMind Omnibus™, a quick and affordable way for companies to couple Toluna’s high-quality, cost-effective omnibus data with professionally moderated, real-time respondent conversations, powered by iModerate. The Quali MultiMind Omnibus streamlines the research process, as clients receive both quantitative data and qualitative insight from a single online omnibus project.

“Our clients depend on the Toluna MultiMind Omnibus to serve many purposes, including ad and concept testing, customer satisfaction, and exploratory research,” explained George Terhanian, President North America and Group Chief Strategy Officer of Toluna. “They have found that hybrid research through our Quali MultiMind Omnibus provides key insights that they may not have otherwise uncovered. The Quali MultiMind Omnibus provides a deeper narrative, and more robust data than quantitative surveys alone.”

“We're very excited about the Quali MultiMind Omnibus because it is a '1+1=3’ proposition,” explained GolinHarris Executive VP of Insights & Innovations, Mark Rozeen. "Our clients benefit from the quantitative rigor and reliability of an omnibus plus the emotional insight and immediacy of qualitative one-on-one conversations, all within a cohesive and contextual survey. The cost-effectiveness and consistency of Toluna's online omnibus architecture, combined with the skill and focus iModerate brings to live interviewing, results in an efficient, powerful and versatile tool that should delight the heavy-duty researcher and the casual investigator alike.”

About Toluna’s Quali MultiMind

The Quali MultiMind Omnibus is a quick and cost-effective way for companies to ask as many as 30 questions of up to 5,000 U.S. respondents. In addition to quantitative data, clients receive qualitative feedback from 10 or more individuals, generated by real-time, online conversations led by a professional moderator. Transcripts of each interview supplement data tables and are available within three days. Toluna’s Quali MultiMind Omnibus leverages SmartSelect, Toluna’s premium, patent-pending methodology for ensuring sample representativeness and data accuracy.
