What is Dedoose?
Dedoose facilitates the coding and analysis of qualitative data and their integration with demographic and other quantitative data. Dedoose is in use by marketing, ethnographic, clinical trial, social policy, education, and other research professionals.
How Dedoose Works:
Dedoose is a SaaS (Software as a Service) application, so simply accessing the Dedoose website and logging in is all that is required to utilize the service. Accordingly, there is nothing to purchase, download, install, maintain, or upgrade. Dedoose is also platform independent-so any browser and any computer can access Dedoose-and monthly subscription fees are low and flexible. Dedoose project data is also very secure as all protocols and policies meet U.S. National Security Agency standards and project administrators control the levels of access for all users linked to a project.
Data Mining in Dedoose:
Taking advantage of the information available in both qualitative (text and, coming soon, video and audio) and quantitative data is essential for the decisions being made by company executives, health care professionals, program developers, and advisors in any industry. Dedoose allows for easy import and integration of qualitative and quantitative data from Word or Excel files. Excerpting and coding qualitative content is a straightforward process as is the later searching and retrieving of this data.
The interactive data visualizations in Dedoose allow for sophisticated mixed method discovery and exploration of often hidden patterns in project data. While informative in their own right, these visuals can be used in filtering and sorting and as access points for drilling deeper into the data to better understand hidden relationships. These finding are then easily exported to include in reports and presentations. The vast range of data visualizations in Dedoose also facilitate the detection of significant bi- and multivariate relationships, variation in both qualitative and quantitative data clustering, as well as chronological and spatial relationships. Finally, as a web app, Dedoose allows for real-time collaboration among researchers and clients as they work together to glean the critical insights necessary to make informed decisions.
