Advantages of online qualitative research
(apart from speed, time-saving, control, visibility and convenience for clients)
Good participants
Properly qualified, and engaged, participants... no-shows, un-qualifieds, and non-engagers can also be replaced even once research begins.
No group-think
Because participants can answer privately, the risk of group thinking and peer influence is removed. Also, all participants get an equal say.
Implicit and explicit
Participants can be asked to give instant or instinctive feedback, but they also have time to give more considered answers when appropriate.
Relevant results
Participants' answers stay on topic, with no risk of straying into irrelevant areas, or opportunity for participants to just say they agree with other people.
New stimulus
New or revised stimulus materials, and questions, can be added mid way through research, in response to preliminary results.
Idea generation
Participants have anonymity to put forward any ideas, and then the time to consider other participants' ideas.
Varied insights
Participants' answers are given online in writing, but they can also include image or video uploads.
Happy participants
Participants can take part in research at any time of day or night, from home or elsewhere, to suit their lives.
