Leverage your In-Person Research by streaming in the Discuss Meeting Room. Allowing you to invite important stakeholders that wouldn't be able to join & taking advantage of Discuss Meeting Room & Insight features.

 

 

Mobile User Experience

Moderators can gain insights into users' mobile behaviors by allowing respondents to share their device screens directly within the meeting room. During mobile screen-sharing interviews, respondents join the session and broadcast their mobile device screen into the meeting room.

Researchers will be able to see a user's phone as a separate screen (on the whiteboard) in the session. It allows researchers to see how participants use mobile apps or mobile websites.
