In addition, you can perform various data management tasks such as cleaning, weighting, and merging.
The Interview Option enables you to build surveys, see how they will look, and test the survey logic – without having to send your surveys to a Web server. When you are ready to collect live data, you can activate your survey directly to UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin. You can create tables directly from UNICOM Intelligence Professional with the Tables Option, and then publish them in a variety of third-party formats, including Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and HTML.
