Feature

Make Your PowerPoint^® Presentation an Interactive Survey

Advantage

Wireless keypads allow you to poll employee "real-time" to learn what they think. OptionPower allows you to author your survey questions quickly and easily within Microsoft PowerPoint. With an LCD projector, a notebook computer and wireless keypads, users can author and administer a survey hundreds or thousands of employees in minutes.

Benefit

Because OptionPower is a PowerPoint add-in, it is easy-to-learn and easy-to use. Now you don't have to wait for printing, distribution or tabulation of paper surveys. You can avoid complicated authoring with web surveys or hounding employees to participate on-line. OptionPower is your fastest, easiest and most effective choice for effective employee feedback.

Feature

Sub-Group Data Display and Reporting Tools

Advantage

OptionPower allows you to use polling results to "slice" your data and show sub-group results in PowerPoint during or after your session. It also allows you to tabulate and output group or sub-group results as digital Excel files or printed reports.

Benefit

OptionPower makes it easy to view meaningful differences in sub-group opinions. With just a few mouse clicks you can explore your data, find meaningful results and email charts and reports to managers in PowerPoint or Excel. See how long time employees view issues compared to new hires. Explore differences in perception based on department, job function or manager. No other polling product makes data analysis this simple.

Feature

Store Data Using the OTI Data Engine

Advantage

The OTI Data Engine™, a part of OptionPower, is the fastest and most powerful data storage and manipulation platform available in any interactive polling product. This proprietary database design operates in conjunction with the world-class Microsoft SQL database platform. More than 130 data manipulation objects are part of this unique platform.

Benefit

OptionPower users can extract, display and report results faster and more flexibly than with any other interactive opinion polling application. Users can instantly show cross-tabbed charts from any sub-group or question in PowerPoint or Excel. Data is already resident in the database so when you want to view or report data from multiple employee polling sessions you can avoid the "consolidation" delay found in other products. Because the platform uses SQL standards, OTI can help your IT department easily create links between OptionPower and other employee data stores.

Feature

Display Polling Statistics

Advantage

OptionPower allows users to add statistical polling "shapes" to interactive PowerPoint slides. Add an "average" shape to show the overall group average on a numeric opinion scale. Show the standard deviation of results, confidence interval, and polarization index statistics to better understand group opinions.

Benefit

Only OptionPower gives you total flexibility in adding and statistical counters and shapes on polling slides. Now you can see results in the way that makes most sense for your individual employee survey project.
