CFRI offers online surveys and Internet polling services. In addition, CFRI can handle e-mail mailing lists for recruiting respondents to the online surveys.

CFRI offers advantages when doing your online surveys:

• 24-hour access: Websites can be available 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Respondents may do the survey at any time convenient to them.
• Fast turn around: The number of simultaneous respondents on a survey is limited only by the web server's capacity. This allows for many completed interviews in a short period of time.
• Multimedia: The online format allows use of graphics, audio, and video within a survey.
• Websites: websites may be accessed from anywhere in the world. They offer a cost-effective alternative to international phone calls or postal mailings.
• Experinced programmers
• State of the art servers

CFRI utilizes computer software for our online surveys that allows for the rapid conversion of surveys into a web-accessible format. The software is extremely flexible, allowing on-the-fly alterations to a survey even while the survey is active. It also provides secured website hosting and database services. CFRI has selected software that, combined with our experience, insures real quality in all surveys.

CFRI also offers the following for our online surveys:

• Password Security: The optional password security feature insures that only targeted respondents have access to a survey. The password also allows respondent data to be linked to a survey, permitting separate quotas and tailored questions for differing respondent groups.
• Progress Meter: The optional progress meter gives respondents a visual representation of how close they are to completing the survey. This added bit of encouragement can mean the difference between a completed survey and one that breaks off two questions before the end.
• Resumed Surveys: If respondents break off in the middle of a survey, they are able to return and continue from where they had stopped without having to repeat previous questions.
• Phone recruting for online: option of doing survey on phone as recruited.
