Analysis & Reporting EyeOpenR is our advanced analysis and reporting tool within EyeQuestion. In EyeOpenR, the default auto report creates a comprehensive analytical report based on the available data from your project and automatically uses the applicable analyses from EyeOpenR. For more personalized reports you can create custom Excel auto reports allowing users to create comprehensive reports from single or merged project data within a click. Customization of reports allows the addition of products, sessions and panellists specific information as well as organisation logo and other images

 

User Management

Create user restrictions based on user groups for locations, projects and/or media.

Assign one of the default profiles to users:

  • Data analyst
  • Express
  • Monitor
  • Panel Manager
  • User Manager
  • Project Manager
  • Template Manager
  • Test Designer
  • Translator 

Combine profiles for specific functional access or create custom profiles for advanced users. Ensure access to your environment is fully secure by using the 2FA feature. Adjust the password policy to customize the security level for your environment. Locked users can easily be unlocked by a user with a User manager profile

Single Sign On Use one of the Single Sign On (SSO) options or combine them with your organisation’s security sign in options. We support LDAP and SAML integration
ISO 27001 All data collected with EyeQuestion is stored according to the highest industry standards. Our ISO 27001 Certification is an assurance for formal security audits and the secure handling of all your data

 

Calendar Scheduled projects are showing in the calendar for users to prepare for upcoming projects
Template
Management
Over 20 default templates based on industry standards are available in EyeQuestion. If default templates are not suitable, users are able to create their own personal template library. Existing projects can be turned into a custom template which future projects can use as a starting point. Custom templates can be activated, edited or de-activated with revision management
Shelf-Life
Management
Select which products from the Product Database are used for shelf-life testing. Create timepoints which are used to notify the user that the shelf-life product needs to be included for testing
Training Management EyeQuestion offers the option to create both user and panellist training. Restrict users from using custom templates if they are not trained on it. Create panellist training based on a specific product property and track panellist training using the training and attendance reporting options
Custom Questions Create custom questions and share these with your colleagues. All custom created questions can be used in all questionnaires
Update panellists
profile
Use created categories in questionnaires so panellists can update their personal information through EyeQuestion screeners or projects
Remark Labelling Our Remark Labelling is an efficient and useful tool for defining and transforming open text responses into workable data. Read through responses and label them into categories, allowing them to be presented in clear visual graphs such as a pie chart or bar chart.
Live Data Reporting Users are able to view the progress of a project with our Live Data Reporting tool, allowing category based answers to be presented in a easy to view table. Sharing the data with non-EyeQuestion users can be easily done by sending them via e-mail directly from this tool.

 

Webservice EyeQuestion contains several technologies to interact with external systems. It supports a SOAP webservice that can be called from an external server to interact with EyeQuestion. This interaction could be the creation of projects, adding or removing panellists or extraction of data
Speech to Text Speech to Text converts spoken words/voice to text (using an API from Google). This can be used in any text applicable question type in EyeQuestion

Experimental Designs

Our powerful design generator gives the user complete control to create a variety of serving orders.

 

Balanced Design that has an equal number of observations for all possible combinations of factor levels (William’s balanced square)
Balanced Incomplete Design that has an equal number of observations but not all treatments can be assigned to each block, set or session
Triangle Design that contains blocks of three samples which are a combination of two products where two are identical and one is different
Triangle Random Design that contains blocks of three samples which are a combination of two products where two are identical and one is different. This design does not have to have an equal number of observations for all possible combinations of factor levels
Tetrad Design that contains two products and the replicate of each product that are presented at the same time
Tetrad Random Design that contains two products and the replicate of each product that are presented at the same time. This design does not have to have an equal number of observations for all possible combinations of factor levels
Duo Trio Design that contains a reference product, an additional identical reference product and a second product that is different from the reference. The reference product differs between the sets
Duo Trio Constant
Reference
Design that contains a reference product, an additional identical reference product and a second product that is different from the reference. The reference product is always the same product
A-Not A/DFC Design that does not contain a reference product but only contains the products to be tested
Paired Comparison Design that contains products that are paired together and always presented together in pairs. A product is always paired with the same product
Paired Comparison Full Design that contains products that are paired together and always presented together in pairs. All possible combination of pairs is included in the design
Balanced Blocks Design that has a balanced design within each block
Balanced Blocks
Random
Design that has a balanced design within each block. This design does not have to have an equal number of observations for all possible combinations of factor levels
Random Design that does not have to have an equal number of observations for all possible combinations of factor levels
3-AFC Design that contains two products and a reference product. The reference product is always the same product
Fixed Design that will present the number of specified samples in a fixed order using a monadic presentation

 

Blinding Codes Three-digit blinding codes are automatically generated through the design generator with a possibility to configure this process of generation to fully match your internal requirements. Manually edit or automatically re-code blinding codes. Each blinding code has its own unique color scheme which can be customized per product and this colouring can be used in reports and graphs
Warm-Up Sample Warm-up samples can be added to your design. These are samples are presented to the panellist but results will not be recorded
Sessions It is possible to run you test in multiple sessions. That way you can spread your test over multiple days while making sure the correct design is followed
Import Design Importing an Excel file will allow users to create any design that is required using an easy-to-understand format
Custom Design Library Previously used custom designs can be re-used using the Custom Design Library
Runtime Options Set up your desired level of validation using the runtime options by having panellist enter the set or product code before continuing to evaluate the samples. Sets can be linked to a booth or panellists to ensure the correct set is
presented
Statistics Generated design can be checked on distribution and first order effect to make sure your generated or custom design is fully balanced
